Cancer community is buzzing over a new study that says venom from
bees can kill cancer cells
today we're gonna kick off with a very interesting article that
that Allah subhanaw taala says what comes out of the stomach of
the bee?
Allah Allah does not say he does not mention that. The honey only
right Yes, honey is a cure. There's no doubt about that. But
it does not mention honey only as a cure.
Yeah, hello Julian boltonia.
Alright, shut up. Telephone Eduardo.
Something a fluid that can be drank about the beat fee she found
in us. It has a cure for people. So the verse just says from its
stomachs, here's an article a doctor sent it to me so but the
research is all there. Now the cancer community listen up folks
put this on the med net. Because this is like a
any of you have cancer, make sure your doctor is part of this
organization because if he's not you just fire him right away.
You've heard of it. There I ducked into bed told me about it. Dr.
Yvette who is turned into like a Paralympian athlete,
who bikes 50 miles a day, but he's a cancer doctor, which is he's an
oncologist and he told me he's very proud of this website that
was made essentially not a website. It's it's a knowledge
sharing organization. Right knowledge sharing.
No, no, that's something else. No, this. There's a cancer
organization. He's accusing oncologists. Right. So one time we
were chit chatting and he said there's a website. He's very happy
because Syrians started this website. And he's Syrian,
essentially Lebanese, but very much similar to Syrians in
culture. But he said that they share knowledge on this website
and can certify is asking.
It's, he said, it's called the med net.
And that's the website for cancer physicians share knowledge about
their cases, essentially. But this is a cancer community is buzzing
over a new study that says venom from bees can kill cancer cells.
Alright, so you got cancer, go piss off some bees, get yourself
stung. But no, they actually use this as they do it in a
in a controlled manner. Scientists at the Harry Perkins Institute of
Medical Research in Western Australia tested Venom
for more than 300 honeybees and bumblebees against two types of
aggressive hard to treat breast cancer. All right, listen up,
triple negative, and human epidermal growth factor receptor
to whatever, right No, no, this is only some technical terminology
that we're not familiar with. They found that a compounds in Venom
called melatonin could destroy breast cancer cells within an
hour.
Whoa, without causing harm to other cells, it kills only
the other the cancerous cells. Alright, so the common treatments
today are what their first you go for chemo. And if that doesn't
work, they zap you with radiation. Right. Now, I was wondered how the
radiation works because how does it only affect? Like, how does how
do you zap someone and then the skin doesn't get affected, but it
only gets to the cell. So I finally asked a another on an
oncologist out in Chicago, you know, darsena their dad is an
oncologist, that huge Masjid data set up with the Azima Dean's that
so I said How does radiation work when they zapped somebody? Right?
Like why doesn't it wouldn't it burn through everything else to so
he left he's like No, no, we don't just use one rate. It's like
million is you're literally in a microwave. You're It's millions of
rays. Okay, that would not have been one of them by itself would
not have an effect on anything and then it finally
gets to the cancerous
or wherever they're focusing it on. And it fries it away. But this
though,
here
there's the active component of honey bee venom. Melatonin is a
positively charged
amphipathic 26 amino acid peptide. How'd you do in chemistry?
Terrible me two. Researchers found it was able to target cancer cells
by shutting down the activity of molecules over expressed in these
cancers. Now, what is this? You probably are just tuning in and
wondering what what is he talking about? Well, the reason
We're talking about this is mainly that, that connects with the verse
of Allah subhanaw taala. And so it's a nun, the Sunnah of bees,
which mentions the Aqua rhodium in Bhutan He that comes out of its
stomach Sohrabuddin telephone Eduardo a fluid or a drink, shut
up, that something you can consume. That's colors different,
right fi she found in this that but it has a cure for people in
here. I mean, this is a serious here. They also found that when
used in conjunction with chemotherapy drugs, the melatonin
helped formed
pores in the cancer cell membrane, which could potentially allow
therapies to better penetrate the cells. Okay, good. So you're so
you're make sure that you don't knock out the chemo industry with
this article. So that you say that, you know, when the venom is
mixed, use in conjunction with or not mixed, but used alongside
chemo chemotherapy drugs, then the melatonin helps form pores in the
cancer cell membrane, which allows therapies to better penetrate the
cell. Wonderful. Now, while the tests for this study, were only
done in a lab setting, the researchers believed the compound
can be synthetically reproduced as a treatment for breast cancer. So
that's what they always do, they find this amazing thing in nature,
then they just reproduce it in a more efficient manner.
It's much more efficient manner by reproducing it in the lab, and
they could just isolate later on what is whatever is the active
product. That's usually how they how it goes the active ingredient.
Okay, yeah. clergywomen boltonia Sharabi telephone Edwin, let's
see, I want to see how we translate Shut up drink. Alright,
have different hues, what telephone and Wi Fi she found in
us. This is again, one of the logic behind this was you would
ask yourself how in the world would they would a profit some
from or a person from way back in that time? know to be general
about it? Because we know honey, even in that time, they knew honey
was a therapy, but to be general about it, because it says from its
stomachs so it's not just honey, because
you know honey is not you don't necessarily find honey always in
the stomach of the bee you find it in the hive. But from the stomach
is the venom. So the bee venom which we're all afraid of. Okay,
apparently now, it's really a big deal. So Dr. Marlena Toro, a
breast cancer researcher at Moffitt Cancer Center says while
the discovery is impressive, more research would need to be done
before it can be made become a viable therapy. Of course, you got
to study these things a million 1000 times before you actually
make it. And then the FDA has like really stringent rules because
they don't. By the way, when I went to the Dominican Republic, oh
my gosh, I have such an appreciation for rules now. Just
because when you see chaos, and I don't know what I wasn't, maybe it
just wasn't aware of it. And when I went to the other, you know, the
Arab countries, maybe I just got used to it. But when you see
chaos, and just everything is sloppy. And anything goes. So to
open a restaurant, you need license, a license, what if
someone gets sick? Well, I went to a restaurant there I went to
I went to Google, I typed in Hello restaurant. I go to the restaurant
and it's a guy's house. Right? There's zero regulations, zero,
nothing, I'm just eating like, it's like an invitation. And I
leave him some money on the table.
Like there's no regulations for anything.
Probably medicine. There's just no regulations. And people are
probably getting messed up all the time, as as much as
as much as the, you know, it feels like you're you're more free. But
you're also more free to get screwed.
That's really the truth.
You cannot sue anybody right? Now whatever happens happens, you're
on your own. There's no lawsuit, you're on your own. All right,
then the good news is this study has shown that melatonin can
disrupt signaling pathways in breast cancer cells that are
responsible for growth and the spread of disease. However, there
have been many studies
where compounds have proved successful at killing cancer cells
in the lab or animal models, but it has taken many years for those
discoveries.
Make it to patients if at all. So the the lag time from discovery or
theory really, to patient is a long time.
There's also another reason they don't like to disrupt industries
here. Right? It's I think there's some good to it. It's like safety,
but it's also they don't want to disrupt the industry. And here you
have like all these other treatments going and there's an
economy behind these treatments. We wouldn't have
treatments available to us if it wasn't an economy, a viable
economy, meaning that people could wake up from nine to five, all
they think about is treating you and you get access to it. That
can't happen if he's not getting paid for it. So you can't just up
end and disrupt an industry like that. They have to ease it in and
you have to like what they said in the article.
You have to work with that current industry, it's got to fit in.
Right. So they're saying that oh, it works great in conjunction with
chemo therapy drugs. I don't know if that's like the case. Or if
that's like
you know, just like something they're putting in there to make
sure that they're making everyone happy. Because there's a lot of
economics involved in in medicine, it's necessary, you can just
disrupt a critical industry like the health industry like this. So
added that approximately half of all current drugs are derived from
natural products, which demonstrates the potential of
using bee venom for drug discovery. Nature is a great
supplier of active elements and chemical synthesis. Good chemical
synthesis has made it possible to provide many drugs of natural
origin in the dosage required for therapeutic use. And that's the
biggest thing that a lot of people
they don't think about when they think about natural medicine. I
want to go natural, yeah, but you don't know the dosage. Right? And
you don't know what the reactions so it's about the dosage. That's,
that's the key.
And the original supply, they said is like, oftentimes very limited
and very difficult. Right, there's a Netflix documentary on beats
beasting therapy, and I got to get the, they got the bees, and they
cup it around the area to put the body in a cup. Right and the key
the beat immediately feels upset. Okay, and then they sting the
person there and they say that they get good results. Now it's
not like considered actual medicine. But it's a therapy that
people say works for them if it works for them and good for them.
I don't think there's a law against stinging yourself. Right?
So but the key is the issue is the if you're going to really use this
you got to study what dosage is required. What are the active
ingredients? What about other ingredients that mix with you
know, there could they could mix with
you know, things that in the body or other medicines that you're
taking that are not good? So when Allah says fee, there is a cure
and it does not mean it's 100% of cure 100% of the time that's
something very important that many naive people think it's 100 it's a
cure 100% of the time like black seed
black seed habits of soda is a big deal but because the prophets I
said him said it's a medicine but it didn't say at any rate it's
like a certain rate that you have to take or else you actually can
harm yourself like water you could you could over drink probably I'm
sure there is a concept of over drinking water as well as neutral
as water is right? You can probably over drink yourself to
the point of ill health
All right, nature is a great supplier and active elements she
says and and then there are 220 1000 species of bees. So here
we go. There's a ton of type of bees. So which bees is mentioned
here. And this is where it's like Allah subhanaw taala always wants
human beings just to be scholars like he wants study. There's a lot
of factors Okay, so the bee we all know that now. And honey is a
general cure for for living. We all have it in our homes. But
Allah Tala wants scholarship, he wants knowledge. He wants
specialized study, because that's really how human beings live. And
if everything was available to everybody, then I wouldn't need a
doctor. You wouldn't need a mechanic. We wouldn't need a
mufti, etcetera, etcetera. So there's 20,000 Now we get into the
really hairy details 20,000 species of bees, which ones work
and which ones don't, right. Get with the study looking at the
European honeybee found in Australia, Ireland and England.
The bee population from each country produced almost identical
effects in breast cancer.
It also looked at the venom from bumblebees.
But this did not have the same effect and was unable to induce
cell death. So the venom of bumblebees, which is your the
little fatter B's? There's they're fatter, they're shorter, and they
make a lot more noise. Okay, Mohammed says, I work for a MHRA
where the UK is medicine regulator ensuring public health and Patient
Safety is our main priority. So am I speaking Am I saying what makes
sense or no? Right? I'm making sense here that they got to make
sure they go really slow on these, you know these
these new discoveries
Got it also looked at the venom from bumblebees, we said that one
of the first reports of the effects of bee venom was published
in 1950.
Where Venom reduced the growth of tumors in plants.
I didn't even know plants get tumors. But well, over the past
two decades, interest in apitherapy has grown. So I guess
that's what they call it, as has interest in the effects on
honeybee Venom on different cancers.
Despite this, the molecular mechanisms and selectivity of bio
molecular components of honeybee Venom as anti cancer agents
remained largely unknown. prompting the new study,
understanding the molecular basis and specificity of bee venom
against cancer cells is key for developing and optimizing novel,
effective therapeutics from a natural product that is widely
available and cost effective to produce in many communities around
the world. All right, very well done. So good article, and
really interesting stuff. And if I had went into medicine, I would
have never went into the research side. I don't have the tolerance
and the patience for this academics. I need adrenaline, we
need action. I'd have been a surgeon. No doubt about it. No
surgery. Emergency Room surgery on top of that.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, I would have been an emergency I would have been a
great emergency rooms because I love the pressure. Right? And I
love the idea like this is it life and death, and not life and death
and then not studying what medicine to take? No, give me
gloved me up. Give me up, give me saws knives. Take care of this
person. You wake up you think Allah and then you thank me for
saving your life. That's the type of medicine that I would have been
in. Right? I'm talking to am cups of coffee. Well, emergency room
boom, excitement. Yes, that's what I would have been into. That's the
only medicine I would have been
excited about.
Now, let's get to our real forte here.
That was segment number one of today's nothing but facts live
stream for which we have some special guests coming by the way.
Alright, so for any of those in the medical industry, I'm sure you
love that segment. And probably maybe not my butchering, of, you
know, medical terminology, et cetera, et cetera. Right.
But that was segment number one. Segment Number two is that we are
going to tell you that you can support this live stream by going
to patreon.com, backslash stuffiness, society, and we need
to update our credits. We haven't updated our credits in a long
time. So we need to update our credits because a lot of you give
us a lot of support and that's why we're able to do this
