Article Synopsis
- Mangiferin is a powerful bioactive compound mainly found in mangoes, known for its potential to prevent and treat various cancers, such as prostate, ovarian, and lung cancer.
- It works by regulating key signaling pathways and triggering processes that lead to cancer cell death and stopping the cell cycle, which helps control cancer proliferation.
- Although studies show promising effects against multiple cancer types, more clinical trials are needed to fully understand its benefits and establish its role in cancer prevention and treatment.
