EdoBotanics and Bitterleaf

Founded by Ernest B. Izevbigie, EdoBotanics phytoceutical and nutraceutical products include derivatives of the Bitter Leaf plant which in some cases suppressed certain cancers.ML reports:

"This plant is called Vernonia Amygdalina," Izevbigie said."When I was growing up in Nigeria my grandmother would use some of this herb for everything from stomach pains to headaches, but up until now no-one was able to show the mechanism for action or how this herb works.But, using the scientific method, we proved that the plant's extract can slow cancer growth and even kill cancer cells."
Izevbigie, who began working with the plant in 2000, exposed a very diluted amount of the plant's extract to an MCF-7 breast cancer cell and marveled at the cell's reaction.
"It's a biphasic effect," Izevbigie said."At very low concentration you retard the growth of the cancer cell.That, in itself, is significant.But if you add a little more, even a moderate amount, it completely killed it."
