Introduction to Pawpaw

The pawpaw tree is indigenous to several areas of North America.  Some have theorized that it receives its name due to its similar appearance to the papaya fruit; however, the two fruits are totally unrelated.  Pawpaw is of the scientific family Annonaceae, which includes several unusual tropical fruits. 
There are about eight different species of pawpaw; however it is the species Asimina triloba that was used by Dr. Jerry McLaughlin in his research, and it is only this species that contains the special annonaceous acetogenins that have been shown to so powerful in fighting insects, cancer cells, parasites, lice, and other attackers.

Paw Paw extract contains (among other active ingredients) acetogenins which modulate the production of ATP** (adenosine triphosphate) in mitochondria of cancer cells. This reduces the growth of blood vessels that nourish cancer cells. It also inhibits the growth of MDR (multiple drug resistance) cells. No other alternative or conventional cancer treatment (except treatments from trees similar to Paw Paw) has shown any effectiveness against MDR cells.
