Raspberries have indeed been causing a stir in the world of anti-oxidants, this time the humble fruit has been found to have gene altering capabilities. The said trait has never yet been seen in any single agent or protein therapy. The said concentrated extract has proven to be quite successful compared to single proteins designed to target a single receptor or agent. In laboratory animals, an amazing modification of around 460 of a total 2,200 affected genes, a truly miraculous development. These events have fueled the renewed interest in the humble fruit that has caused many a sour faces due to their inherent flavor.
Such is the power of nature that has evolved through many millions of years, loaded with natural nutrients and disease fighting compounds, many of them still to be discovered. The actions of the blackberry concentrate was not only of promoting healing but a total renewal of the genetic makeup of the affected genes as if they weren’t even afflicted in the first place. The berry extract is preferred due to its wide spectrum effect on the damaged genes rather that the dedicated medications that are coming out of the many laboratories the world over designed to target specific genes, proteins and many other mechanisms. General or much akin to holistic treatment of disease allows better recovery by preventing the disease taking hold in the first place, promoting healing before the disease has a chance to progress.
