Promising Results for NF1 Patients with The Governor Olive Oil
Groundbreaking clinical study results using The Governor Olive Oil for NF1 treatments were recently unveiled. Conducted by the University of Minnesota Cancer Center, the study focuses on Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), a genetic disorder causing tumors. Utilizing over half a ton of high phenolic olive oil, predominantly from the Corfiot Lianolia variety donated by Olive Fabrica “The Governor,” the study shows significant promise.
Understanding Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1)
NF1 is a genetic condition that affects approximately 1 in 2,500 people, leading to benign and malignant tumors. Early in life, patients can develop tumors on the optic nerve, sometimes resulting in blindness. Later, they may face malignant nerve sheath tumors and an increased risk of breast cancer, among other health issues. These complications often cause significant physical and emotional distress.
Clinical Study Insights
Led by Dr. Pavlina Sverak, Dr. Christopher Moertel, and Dr. David Largaespada, this study explores the effects of high phenolic olive oil and curcumin on NF1 tumors. Initial preclinical research demonstrated that oleocanthal in olive oil and curcumin could shrink NF1 tumors in mice. The clinical trial, approved by the FDA, involves administering increasing doses of curcumin with consistent doses of olive oil over a year.
Positive Outcomes and Future Prospects
Twenty patients have enrolled in the study so far, with treatments well-tolerated. Notable improvements include reduced headaches, less skin itching, and better blood pressure control, indicating a significant enhancement in patients’ quality of life. These findings offer hope for NF1 patients and highlight the potential of high phenolic olive oil as a beneficial dietary addition.
