For years, ginger has been used to reduce the effects of nausea（作呕） . But do you know its now also being looked at to fight cancer?7 页Scientists have discovered
46、 that ginger can kill cancerous cells in two different ways. On the one hand, ginger causes the cancer cells to “commit suicide” by destroying themselves while leaving the surrounding healthy cells untouched. Ginger can prevent the growth of diseased cells by destroying the environment they grow in.
47、 On the other hand, ginger tricks the diseased cells and causes them to fight among themselves. Researchers are now looking into one of the toughest cancers to fight. However, scientists find repeated treatment of disease by drugs can actually lose its effectiveness over time as the cancer builds up resistance（抵抗力）to the same treatment. This raises researchers confidence that ginger would help stop resistance
