Thanks to modern science, today it is more than clear that the healing power of mistletoe is not the work of a myth and the world of fairy tales, but that it is actually a natural and healthy remedy that is even good in the treatment against Cancer. On the other hand, not only medicine, but also the cosmetic industry is making use of its versatile properties.
The belief in the magical power of mistletoe dates back to ancient times. The Druids, who were like priests, teachers and healers in one person, worshiped the mistletoe, especially the one that grows in the oaks known as "omnia sanans", and considered it a panacea. Also in the Middle Ages, a type of mistletoe known as a witch's broom was used for “magical” and medical purposes. Today mistletoes are still hung over the doorframe at Christmas times as this is believed to ensure health, prosperity and fertility in the New Year.
The mistletoe: a plant with medicinal benefits
The fact that mistletoe behaves completely the opposite of most plants, in terms of growth and fruit ripening, has certainly contributed to its reputation as a medicinal plant.
This is because in the winter, when all the other plants are in the winter, the mistletoe begins to grow suddenly. It blooms from February to March and bears ripe fruit from November.
As in humans, the fruit takes about nine months to fully ripen. This plant does not need the sun, it is independent of light and gravity. This is the reason why the evergreen leaves of the plant grow in all directions and form the typical round mistletoe bush. This phenomenon does not exist in any other plant.
Benefits of mistletoe as a natural remedy
Mistletoe is common throughout Europe and is considered a semi-parasite, since it does not grow in the ground but in trees, it gets a large part of the nutrients from its host, but also performs the function of photosynthesis so it could easily survive without a host.
Of the roughly 1,400 types of plants known as mistletoes in the broadest sense, only one, the white-leaved mistletoe (Viscum alba), is used today to make medicine and cosmetic care products.
Mistletoe in the fight against cancer
White mistletoe therapy is the best researched among the unconventional procedures in cancer medicine. The unique combination of its ingredients makes mistletoe a very special medicinal plant
In addition to containing a variety of amino acids, proteins, triglycerides (fats), flavonoids (typical plant dyes), potassium and phosphorus, it also contains highly toxic substances: viscotoxins and lectins.
These toxic substances have an important effect as adjunctive therapy in cancer patients. The lectins in mistletoe are sugary proteins that appear in this form only in mistletoe and inhibit the growth of cancer cells.
They are among the best-studied ingredients in mistletoe. Viscotoxins are protein compounds and are similar in structure to cobra venom. Its effect is not as well researched as that of lectins, however viscotoxins are known to dissolve cancer cells by destroying their cell wall.
Mistletoe supplements for cancer
Today, mistletoe supplements are mainly used as an extra component to cancer treatment in order to improve the patient's condition and reduce its side effects. A treatment accompanied at the same time with mistletoe extract reduces the side effects of conventional cancer therapies, such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
Mistletoe extracts also stimulate the replication of immune cells and activate natural killer cells. They also increase the formation of beta-endorphins, and endogenous opiates. This is good for pain relief and depression as well. In folk medicine, mistletoe is considered beneficial in menstrual disorders, epilepsy, atherosclerosis, and hypertension.
Its role in natural medicine
Similarly, mistletoe is a plant that grows as a parasite on other plants, that is, in the "wrong place", which is in trees and not in the ground. Mistletoe does not feed itself, but gets most of its nutrients from the tree on which it grows.
The first noticeable signs of skin aging are fine lines and wrinkles. Small, shallow wrinkles known as laughter lines or crow´s feet tend to become noticeable at the outer corners of the eyes. These may appear around the age of 30, but we all age differently and how we age depends on our genetics and lifestyle. https://ipsnews.net/business/2021/10/21/age-reversal-technique-reviews-get-back-your-youthful-skin/
