Has anyone had any dealings with GRAVIOLA? There are various reports that this plant/herb is a cure for cancer. Any comments would be appreciated.
Hi rel and leelaboo,
Unfortunately, graviola is promoted as an alternative cancer treatment and there is not enough reliable evidence that graviola works as a treatment for cancer. treatment. Claims that graviola can treat cancer are not backed up by research and some chemicals in graviola could cause serious side effects. It is very important to talk to your doctor before taking any kind of complementary or alternative therapy.
Our website has reliable information on graviola (soursop) which I hope you will both find useful and I would also recommend you have a good read of our section on complementary and alternative therapies.
Best wishes,
