It is highly abundant in many plants, including cabbage and wheat, and is routinely ingested by people
Glutathione's anti-inflammatory properties help mitigate inflammation, creating a favorable environment for Leydig cells to produce testosterone without interference from inflammatory mediators
Even normal water flow causes backup
This strategy is needed not only to provide foundational evidence for the safety and efficacy of senescent cell removal, but also to begin collecting much needed biomarker data that could be used as surrogate markers for senescent cell identification and tracking in pre-clinical/prodromal disease stages
A 2021 review published in Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy explains that silymarin, the main active compound in milk thistle, can:25 Regulate the cell cycle, helping to ensure proper division and replication Induce apoptosis, or programmed cell death, by which the body can eliminate mutated cells (e.g., cancer cells) Regulate the body's immune response, increasing its ability to recognize and attack cancer cells Keep tumor cells from growing and spreading Inhibit angiogenesis, the process by which tumors create new blood vessels that increase their blood supply and help them grow The review specifically discusses silymarin's therapeutic potential for gastrointestinal cancer, but as another set of researchers note, silymarin has a pleiotropic effect, meaning it can act on multiple targets.26 Again, more research may be needed, but the current science suggests that milk thistle may have fairly broad complementary utility in cancer therapy
