Description

Physcion is a natural compound that is widely distributed in plants, such as coffee. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells and has anti-oxidant properties. Physcion has been shown to have a protective effect on bowel disease by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress. Physcion also inhibits the growth of cancer cells in culture by binding to the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) enzyme and blocking DNA synthesis. Physcion contains caffeic acids and other natural compounds that have been found to inhibit the activity of bowel disease-causing bacteria and are effective against inflammatory bowel disease in animal models.
