Ellagic acid is usually made from red raspberries. This is the source of ellagic acid that has been tested as a cancer alternative. Ellagic acid may be helpful for breast, pancreas; esophageal, skin, colon and prostate cancers.
How does ellagic acid work?
Ellagic acid acts as a scavenger to "bind" cancer-causing chemicals, making them inactive.
Ellagic acid inhibits the ability of other chemicals to cause mutations in bacteria. In addition, ellagic acid from red raspberries prevents binding of carcinogens to DNA, and reduces the incidence of cancer in cultured human cells exposed to carcinogens.
Red berries provide ellagic acid , which may protect the body from smoke and pollution by inactivating carcinogens and inhibiting free-radical formation.
Ellagic acid can be purchased in the form of tablets of concentrated red raspberry seed flour extract, also called simply, Ellagic acid.
The recommended dose is four tablets a day, for 40mg of Ellagic Acid. Or, you can eat a cup of fresh raspberries daily for 30 days!
