早前，雪肌蘭國際集團與香港醫學學會合辨醫學講座，主題為「淺談自由基與防癌方法」，邀請了香港科技大學(生命科學部)高錦明教授、臨床腫瘤科專科黃麗珊醫生，為大眾分享保持健康青春之道，現場座無虛席，觀眾皆勇躍發問！

預防癌症 多面睇

兩位講者積極分享多項預防癌症的研究，黃醫生向參加者分享香港常見的癌症種類，以及探討不同癌症治療，如化療、放射治療的特點與副作用。及後，高教授亦詳細介紹癌症的成因，及預防方法，當中特別講解魚鯊烯，對預防癌症的卓越功效。

致癌物 無處不在

高教授提到，我們每天都會接觸到致癌物質，避無可避。世衛指出，太陽輻射、室外空氣污染、加工肉等，已屬1級致癌物，即對人體有明確的致癌性。當體內累積的毒素愈多，細胞癌變的風險愈大、惡化速度愈快。因此，減少體內毒素，是預防癌變的關鍵。

魚鯊烯 防癌之選

魚鯊烯天然存在於體內，額外補充有助健體防癌。外國研究發現，魚鯊烯具有減少體內毒素，及萎縮腫瘤的功效，能於不同階段保護細胞。它可阻斷有害化合物在腸道吸收、及促進其排出體外、更有效提升肝臟解毒功能，全面提升健康。

Reinforcement of immunity is a fundamental key to fight against disease. Many researches have been conducted in order to find out the best solution for cancer.

Recently, HKUST (Department of life science) Prof. Ko has revealed a surprising discovery on DAGE. His new research demonstrated that DAGE significantly improves body immunity and suppress tumor growth. This research is also published on international health journal this year. In the previous distinguished scholar lecture, Prof. Ko investigated the effect of DAGE on immunity enhancement and cancer suppression with pharmacists.

Distinguished Scholar Lecture was held on 6^th December, 2012 at prince hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui. Around 70 Watson’s pharmacists and nutritionists have attended the seminar for the newest research results. Mrs. Angel S. P. Chan Lau, chairman and Miss Abbie S. K. Chan, the vice chairman of the Squina International Group also attended.

Research proven the health benefits of DAGE

Prof. Ko has proven that long term supplementation of DAGE boost the “inborn” and “Acquired” immunity. The inborn immunity is the frontline defense while the acquired immunity produced after in later life, which is generated after contact the pathogens and antigens. In the research, mice were fed with DAGE to observe its immune response and it shows that their macrophage and natural killer cells vitality is increased to eradicate pathogens.

Improve reactions against antigens  Decrease 70% of tumor

Results also indicate- that DAGE improves immune cells vitality and suppress cancer cells. Feeding DAGE to the mice with cancer cells has shown a decrease up to 70% in cancer cells. Besides, it shows in vitro that the cancer index is corresponding to the dosage of DAGE, suggesting DAGE is an effective nutrient that strengthens immunity and cancer suppression.
