TRIPHALA POWDER AND CANCER
Extensive studies are carried out on triphala powder to understand its anti-cancer effects. It has been observed that overproduction of free radicals can lead to the development of chronic ailments, especially cancer. Triphala powder exhibits chemotherapeutic, immunomodulatory and chemopreventive properties. Triphala modulates different signaling pathways preventing growth and proliferation and inducing apoptosis in the carcinogenic cells. (2)

RESEARCH

1. Data obtained from a study revealed administration of Triphala powder provided an effective cytotoxic effect against colon cancer cells. Inhibition of the proliferating cancer cells was observed along with p53 independent apoptosis through Bax/ Bcl-2 ration elevation. (3)
2. In another study, chebulinic acid present in triphala powder has provided an effective cytotoxic effect in laboratory analysis. Growth of the cells was inhibited as triphala powder inhibits the action of the chemical, vascular endothelial growth factor which is critical for tumour formation. (4)
3. Data from another study revealed administration of triphala powder in the Zebrafish xenograft model can lead to suppression of growth and proliferation of the human gastric carcinoma cells. (5)
4. In another study, administration of triphala powder resulted in the disruption of microtubule assembly dynamics resulting in inhibition of proliferation of the carcinogenic cells. (6)
