Natural Asian beverage being used successfully in clinical treatment of cancer and associated Protein Calorie Malnutrition.

February 27, 2004 -- Reports show that 25-50 percent of hospital cancer patients suffer from Protein Calorie Malnutrition and only 1/3 of them survive five years. Chemotherapy and radiation are sufficient stressors to induce Protein Calorie Malnutrition in a patient. Administering a liquid fermented/nitrogenated soybean beverage has been used as a parallel therapy in many documented cases, alongside traditional cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation. The beverage's benefits include strengthening of the immune system and a reduction in side effects normally associated with these types of treatments.
Hydrolyzed soy protein liquid becomes a free-form amino acid, which has been found to enter the bloodstream effectively. The soy liquid protein levels have achieved blood protein levels of up to 8½ percent, comparable to hospital treatments administered through an I.V., which averaged results between 8-11 percent. This is an especially important factor to underscore for protein deficient cancer patients.
As explained in the book, Cancer Disarmed Expanded (Safe Goods Pub), the fermented/nitrogenated soy’s benefits for the immune system are profound in the manner in which penetration is accomplished into the cancer cell, where its constituents can effectively weaken it. One company produces this formula by reducing the naturally occurring isoflavones, from 500-3,000 daltons to 200 daltons in size. These are referred to as Small Biologically Active Iso-flavones (SBAIs) which are small enough to successfully penetrate the cell wall. The nitrogenation process connects high levels of nitrogen atoms, usable to the body, directly to the small bioactive isoflavone.
The fermentation process hydrolyzes many of these soybean proteins into bioactive amino acids and compounds, consisting of various fermentation metabolites of the naturally occurring isoflavones, protease inhibitors, saponins, phytosterols, and phytic-acid compounds. This nitrogenated compound is readily absorbed by the cancer cell, and provides a camouflaged entry for the anticancer proteins and phytochemicals. Once inside, the soybean protein isolate destroys blood vessels by changing the DNA back to normal. This reprogramming shuts off the release of the enzyme that dissolves blood capillaries and promotes angiogenesis (the production of new blood vessels) that feed tumor growth. Once the cancer cell is disabled and weakened, the immune system and the T-cells can use the nitric acid to dissolve them. It is this process that makes specific concentrated, soybean liquids so distinctive.
This fermented soy beverage alone should not be viewed as a singular cancer cure. It is an adjuvant (helpful) nutrition in cancer treatments. Clinical evidence indicates that selective nutrition may be able to influence the cancer process even after initiation. Although adjuvant nutrition is not encouraged or endorsed as the sole therapy for aggressive cancer, it may prevent Protein Calorie Malnutrition, which has been linked to increased mortality, surgical failures, reduced response to chemotherapy, slow wound healing, weakness, and apathy.
