1 Smokeless tobacco products are a major source of cancer-causing nitrosamines and a known cause of human cancer. 2  They increase the risk of developing cancer of the mouth and throat, esophagus (swallowing tube), and pancreas. Tobacco use accounts for at least 30% of all cancer deaths, causing 87% of lung cancer deaths in men, and 70% of lung cancer deaths in women. ( 2 Source: Cancer Facts & Figures 2014).
Two laboratory studies found that the flavonoids apigenin and luteolin, found in celery, artichokes and herbs like Mexican oregano, kills human pancreatic cancer cells in vitro by inhibiting an important enzyme.he researchers used the flavonoids as a pre-treatment instead of applying them and the chemotherapeutic drug simultaneously, said co-author Jodee Johnson, PhD from the University of Illinois. Apigenin alone induced cell death in two aggressive human pancreatic cancer cell lines.
