Purslane Extract Kills 83% of Liver Cancer Cells in Vitro: An extract of purslane seeds was shown in this new study to kill up to 83% of human liver cancer cells in vitro within 24 hours. Purslane extracts have already been shown to be toxic to breast cancer, lung cancer, cervical cancer, and sarcoma in other studies. What makes this leafy green so powerful? Besides containing the anticancer flavonoids kaempferol, apigenin, luteolin, and quercetin, this super vegetable also delivers 17 vitamins and minerals, omega-3 fatty acids, powerful antioxidants, and four flavonoids unique to purslane (portulacanones). And purslane’s health benefits don’t stop there. It’s already been shown in clinical trials to help adults with type 2 diabetes by significantly lowering their blood sugar, cholesterol, triglycerides—and even helped them lose weight! (after just five weeks of eating purslane seeds.) Purslane also has demonstrated powerful anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral properties, and has been shown to boost immunity by increasing the number of white blood cells (in mice). All of this for just 13 calories per 80 gram serving! And alkaline diet fans take note, this low-calorie leafy green delivers four times the alkalizing power of pure lemon juice! Purslane is delicious in salads, soup, curry, stir fried with other greens, or blended in your favorite vegetable smoothie.
