All parts of the Graviola plant are used for different sorts of medicinal purposes. For centuries people have benefited from the Graviola plant. The leaves of Graviola plant are boiled to make tea for catarrh and liver problems. The crushed seeds of the Graviola fruit are very helpful in getting rid of bacteria and parasites. The root, bark and leaves are used to control diabetes and also as they have a sedative quality. Oil from the leaves and fruit of the plant is used externally to help rheumatism and arthritis. The plant is used in various ways to relieve cough, colds, flu, diarrhea, fever, difficult labor, hypertension and asthma.

Aside from its amazing properties that aid in relieving every day ailments that are not life threatening in nature, latest researches show that it possesses anticancer and antitumor properties also. A research carried out in Purdue University showed that the leaves, bark, stem and fruit seeds of the plant produce chemicals known as Annonaceous Acetogenins. Theses acetogenins are of various different strains and some of these strains are 1000s of times more potent than chemotherapy drugs and also work more effectively against cancerous cells without harming healthy cells. Graviola is known to have active cytotoxity against cancer cells and has powerful antitumor characteristics. The Annonaceous Acetogenins are very good and effective inhibitors of enzymatic activity that is carried out in tumor or cancerous cells hence they do no harm to normal healthy cells. Researches published by the Purdue University claimed that the acetogenins were very effective in killing tumors that showed resistance to the antitumor medication. A tumor cell needs more energy to run its functions than a normal and healthy cell. The acetogenins work in such a way that they block the ATP going to the tumor cell and eventually the cell is unable to sustain its functions and dies away. So far 14 different strains of acetogenins have shown remarkable ATP inhibiting characteristics that are specially effective in case of breast cancer. The researches conducted so far indicate that the acetogenins show a defined toxicity against tumor cells present in prostate adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma cell lines, human lymphoma cell lines, human breast solid tumor lines, liver cancer cell lines and pancreatic carcinoma cell lines. Through out the last century researchers have worked hard to find out the effects and side effects Griviola might have on the cancer and tumor cells. It will take time to finally come up with a drug that will be able to fight tumors and cancers without putting the patient in more pain than he is already in, even though a specific drug is not available yet but Graviola supplements are recommended by Doctors.
