Natural plant compounds may assist chemotherapy

Plant compounds present in carrots and  parsley  may  one   day support  more  effective

delivery  of  chemotherapy  treatments,  new  research  has  found. Specific plant compounds are able to inhibit transport mechanisms in the body that select what

compounds are absorbed into the body, and eventually into cells.  These same transport 
mechanisms are known to interfere with cancer chemotherapy treatment.
