Article Summary:

The human body is frequently exposed to mutagenic agents (chemicals or other agents that damage genetic material) and must adapt effectively or deal with the effects of the mutation − which may even include the development of cancer.  

Fortunately, nature provides us with many natural compounds that can help our bodies to adapt. One such natural wonder is the compound vanillin which comes from the vanilla bean.  

Vanillin has been shown to act as an antimutagenic agent which means it reduces the rate of mutations in cells.  

Vanilla also contains properties that enable the body to inhibit angiogenesis − the formation of new blood vessels that feed tumors.  

Another compound found in vanilla called ethyl vanillin shows promise of helping to prevent the spread of cancer, particularly in the kidneys, liver, and lungs.  

When shopping for vanilla, avoid cheap vanilla which will not contain the health benefits of pure, naturally sourced vanilla.
