"Supercharge" Yourself Against This KILLER Cancer

An ovarian cancer diagnosis is the stuff of nightmares.
It’s the second most prevalent form of gynecological cancer among American women. And it often spreads quickly, leading to late detection and less effective treatments.
In fact, the five-year survival rate for ovarian cancer is less than 50 percent.
But it’s not all bad news. And there’s new hope today that we can FINALLY get the upper hand against this killer.
Breakthrough new research reveals a way to draw a big, red BULLSEYE on ovarian cancer.
Even better, this discovery is NOT a drug. Plus, it could also add an extra layer of protection against OTHER types of cancer.
New research published in the journal Pharmacy Times finds adding curcumin to standard ovarian cancer treatments can essentially “SUPERCHARGE” their effectiveness.
Curcumin is an extract of the bright orange herb turmeric, often used to make delicious curry dishes. This potent antioxidant has ALREADY been used to fight pain and inflammation.
And a growing stack of research is building a case for the extract to be used to battle a variety of cancers too.
The National Cancer Institute at the NIH reported encouraging results using curcumin-containing products to treat colon, oral, and liver cancers.
And now we can add ovarian cancer to that list.
But don’t stop with curcumin. Other natural alternatives can ALSO provide extra critical support during your fight against cancer.
- Vitamin C: Studies show that high doses of vitamin C can help support cancer treatments. And when combined with hyperthermia treatments (elevated temperatures), ovarian cancer cells show even greater sensitivity to the vitamin.
- Ginseng: This potent herb is often used in combo with anticancer drugs to boost the effectiveness of chemotherapy.
- Immune-Boosting Mushrooms: Medical mushrooms are proven to boost the immune system, reduce the spread of cancer cells, and increase cancer cell death. Plus, mushrooms can be used with conventional cancer treatments to make them more effective. For example, reishi mushrooms increase the sensitivity of ovarian cancer cells to the cancer-fighting drug cisplatin.
As always, check with your doctor BEFORE starting any new supplement—especially if you have cancer.
