Prostate Cancer is a medical condition characterized by irregular cell growth and multiplied disorderly in the prostate tissues.
Beet, best known as the beetroot or garden beet, belonging to the amaranth family, is a perennial plant with leafy stems growing to 1–2 m tall.
Red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) may have a profound effect in reduced risk and treatment of prostate cancer, some studies suggested.
According to the Howard University, red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) extract (B), approved by Food and Drug Administration and European Union, in drinking water may be safe and used as cancer chemopreventive effect in humans.
Intake of the extract showed a significant effect in reduced synergistic antiproliferative activity against prostate (PC-3) tumor cells of human origin.
When combined anticancer drug doxorubicin (D), the combination acted synergistically in the expression of cytotoxicity against prostate cancer at a ratio of 1:5.
In a total of 24 patients (mean age 68+/-8 years) with hormone-resistant and metastatic prostate cancer treated with taxan chemotherapy, given twice 10 g daily for 1 month of natural table beet product come from commercial service, intake of beet juice showed a significant effect in control of the progression of prostate cancer in promoted life expectancy and reduced toxicity side effect induced by conventional chemo-drug.
The efficacy may be contributed by the mediated activities of phytochemicals in the juice in inhibition of inflammatory through the expression of the production of antioxidants.
The study also suggested that moderate and permanent consumption of table beet products may favorably affect the life expectancy of prostate cancer patients.
Furthermore, in the testing extract of red beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.), the FDA approved red food color E162, against various cancer cell lines, researchers at the Howard University found that the extract showed a significant cytotoxicity in decrease the growth rate of the PC-3 cells, although lesser in compared to doxorubicin, a chemo medicine( (8.6% vs. 100%, respectively, at 29 µg/ml concentration of each, three-day test period).
The study also suggested that betanin, the major betacyanin constituent found in beetroot, maybe phytochemicals responsible for the cytotoxicity.
These findings showed that beetroot may be used as a functional food to a reduced risk of early-onset and treatment of prostate cancer. And reduced adverse toxicity when used in combination with chemo drugs.
