Lunasin and Epigenetics vs. Conventional Cancer Drugs
- 1. Lunasin and Nutritional Epigenetics vs. Conventional Cancer Drugs "No other company is advancing the field of epigenetics like Reliv. We are in the middle of a revolution in nutrition, and we are all witnesses." Dr. Alfredo Galvez, the Center of Excellence in Nutritional Genomics at University of California - Davis. Dr. Galvez is working on the development of functional foods and nutraceutical ingredients based on the lunasin peptide, a soy protein component he serendipitously discovered in 1996 as a postdoctoral researcher at UC Berkeley.
- 2. What makes lunasin different from cancer drugs? “Cancer drugs, like tamoxifen for example, target a specific gene (ER-estrogen receptor) and a specific physiological pathway (estrogen receptor pathway) in stopping cancer development. Lunasin, as a low potency dietary ingredient, has been shown in a number of publications to affect multiple genes in multiple pathways, albeit in incremental fashion, to help prevent cancer development.” Dr. Galvez View how lunasin affects multiple genes in multiple pathways
