Cork tree extract puts a cork on prostate cancer growth, study shows

---

Omschrijving
An over-the counter herbal supplement derived from the Amur cork tree (Phellodendron amurense) killed a high percentage of cultured prostate cancer cells in studies conducted at The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. “This compound is a natural product extracted from the bark of the tree,” said A. Pratap Kumar, Ph.D., associate professor of urology at the Health Science Center and the study’s principal investigator. “People long have used the bark of this tree for stomach ache, dysentery and kidney problems, but it has never been known whether it is useful for cancer. Ours is the first report of this particular extract’s robust ability to kill prostate cancer cells in culture.”
