Beet, A Potent Attenuated Risk and Anti Skin Cancer Biomedical Whole Food

Skin cancer is a medical condition characterized by abnormal skin cell growth in disordered and uncontrollable ways.

Beet, best known as the beetroot or garden beet and belonging to the amaranth family, is a perennial plant with leafy stems growing to 1–2 m tall.

Beet with a high amount of organic nitrate may have a profound effect on risk factors and treatment of skin cancer.

According to the Howard University, in the analysis of beetroot, anti-skin cancer effect in vivo, the measurement from bioassays indicated that beetroot has a chemopreventive effect in expressed a significant inhibition on skin tumors of tested mice.


In skin tumor initiation with 390 nmol of 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) in 100 microl of acetone together with mouse skin tumor promotion with 3430 J/m(2) of ultraviolet light-B (UV-B), oral administration of 0.0025% and topical application of 390 nmol of betanin, the major chemical constituent isolated from beetroot, revealed a strong protection in the mouse skin cancer model.

Besides skin cancer, betanin, a regularly consumed natural product colorant found abundance in beetroot may also be effective chemopreventive agent in treating other types of cancer, such as lung and liver cancers.

Other in the validated sugar beet pectin/gelatin hydrogels, in vivo, conjunction with anti-cancer chemo drug, doxorubicin, demonstrated a successfully suppressed growth of a solid tumor created by applied to the skin of mouse melanoma B16F1 cells into nude mice.


The findings reveal that beet, with high amounts of nitrate, may be used as a therapeutic and functional food in attenuated risk and treatment of skin cancer alone or combined with other chemo agents.
