Summary
But don't expect the pharmaceutical companies to give nature credit. To them, nature is just a free source of chemicals to exploit for profit. The funny thing is that nature has already provided the cure for cancer in the form of anti-cancer foods and superfoods. Cancer is quite easy to beat, in fact, when you turn to nature for the answers.

Details
- Two drugs from unlikely sources -- an ocean-growing sponge and a European evergreen tree -- apparently team up well to prevent the spread of cancer cells.
- The sponge-based drug, discodermolide, works with a yew tree derivative called paclitaxel to thwart tumor cell growth, according to research published in the July 15 issue of Cancer Research.
- In fact, using the drugs in combination is several times more effective than using either drug alone, concluded researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
- Both drugs prevent cancer spread by interfering with tumor cells' ability to divide, keeping cells stalled in a pre-division stage of growth.
- Paclitaxel currently is an approved drug for the control of cancer growth, while discodermolide is undergoing phase one clinical trials.
- The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have more about cancer.
