Abstract

Cancer chemopreventive potential of multi-herbal formulation was studied on induced fibro sarcoma development in swiss albino mice. Oral administration of multi herbal powder was found to reduce the tumour weight in induced mice and increased their life span when compared with the induced untreated animals. Also enzymes such as g-glutamyl transpeptidase, Glutathione-s-transferase, Lipid peroxidase, Glutamate pyruvate transaminase and Alkaline phosphatase levels were decreased from the induced with treated animals when compared with induced untreated animals. The results revealed that the multi herbal powder can be recommended as a herbal health and as anti-cancer agent.
