[Introduction]

Konjac is a plant that is found in China, Japan and Indonesia. The plant is part of the genus Amorphophallus. Typically, it thrives in the warmer regions of Asia.

The extract of the Konjac root is referred to as Glucomannan. Glucomannan is a fiber-like substance traditionally used in food recipes, but now it is utilized as an alternative means of weight loss. Along with this benefit, konjac extract contains other benefits for the rest of the body as well.

The main material of the natural konjac gum is fresh konjac, which grow in virgin forest in Hubei area. We use advanced method to distill the KGM, aminophenol, Ca, Fe, Se which are good for health. Konjac is known as“ the seventh nutriment for human”.

Konjac Gum with its special water holiding capacity, stability, emulsibility, thickening property,suspension property and gel propery can especially adopted in food industry.

14 Super Foods for Fighting Cervical Cancer.

Learn how you can reduce your chances of developing cervical cancer by eating the right foods! The super foods listed below are known their extraordinary cervical cancer fighting nutrients.

1, Papaya.

Originally from Central America, the papaya plant is today cultivated in most tropical countries. Termed as the “fruit of the angels” by Christopher Columbus, papaya is a true nutritional powerhouse. It is one of the best fruit sources of vitamin C (even better than oranges), but it also contains beta-cryptoxanthin and zeaxanthin. This nutrient combo has been associated with lower rates of HPV infection, and experts believe that consuming just one papaya per week could already reduce a woman’s risk of contracting cervical cancer.

2, Raspberries.

Raspberries are bursting with nutrients and flavor, yet they are very low in calories. Clinical studies indicate that daily consumption of red raspberries may prevent the development of cells infected with HPV. This effect is most probably due to raspberries’ high concentration of ellagic acid — a natural compound that has anti-mutagenic and anti-carcinogenic properties. In some cases, it has also been able to cause apoptosis (cell death) in cancer cells. Furthermore, the ellagic acid found in red raspberries retains its potency through heating and freezing. So, regardless of whether you eat your raspberries fresh, frozen or heated, you will reap their cancer-fighting benefits.

3, Green Tea.

The weight loss promoting effects of green tea are well-known, but the health benefits of drinking green tea are more varied than that. Indeed, evidence suggests that green tea may also help prevent many types of cancer, including cervical cancer. Catechins, the same compounds that are responsible for green tea’s weight loss promoting properties, have been shown to be extremely effective at protecting cells against DNA damage caused by free radicals. But the anti-cancer activities of green tea do not end there. Green tea has also been shown to suppress urokinase, a type of enzyme that is thought to play a key role in cancer cell metastasis (spreading) in cervical cancer patients. When buying green tea, choose loose tea leaves instead of tea bags as the release of catechins is better from loose leaves. You may also want to add a bit of citrus juice rich in vitamin C to your tea — research suggests that vitamin C can make the catechins in green tea more available for the body to absorb.

4, Asparagus.

Asparagus is at the top of the list of foods with the highest concentration of glutathione (349 nM glutathione/g wet weight), a ‘master antioxidant’ that has gained the spotlight in recent years. Glutathione has widespread functions, many of which may contribute to a reduced risk of cervical cancer. For example, glutathione has been shown to be effective at protecting cells against free radical damage, detoxifying foreign substances such as carcinogens, and boosting the immune system by influencing lymphocytes. As an additional bonus, this exceptional plant is typically low in pesticides, even the non-organically grown produce.

5, Carrots.

You’ve probably heard that carrots are good for your eyes, but did you know that they may also help protect against cervical cancer? These protective effects are thought to be linked to carrots’ strong antioxidant properties. Carrots also contain falcarinol — a natural compound that appears to be highly effective at inhibiting the development of cancer. Scientists found that rats that had pre-cancerous tumors and that were fed carrots were one third less likely to develop full-scale tumors than the animals in the control group. If you prefer cooked carrots over raw ones, it is best to keep the vegetables whole during boiling or steaming and chop them only afterwards; this helps them retain antioxidant nutrients and falcarinol. (Note: Aside from their cervical cancer combating properties, carrots offer a plenitude of other health benefits so they are good for the whole family!
