Abstract:
In the experiments on mice with primary tumors the authors studied the effect of iodine potassium on tumoral growth. It was shown that tumors became smaller in those animals who obtained iodine potassium. Possible mechanisms of this effect are being discussed.
Insights
Iodine potassium supplementation reduced tumor size in mice with primary tumors. Further research is exploring the mechanisms behind this anti-tumoral effect.
