Utter BS.

So-called ‘stress granules’ are a biochemical response to inflammation & moderate the immune system.

You’re focusing on the wrong target.

If the biochemical topic - ribonucleoproteins, but one of many proteinaceous membrane-less organelles - has any relation to cancer whatsoever, my bet is that ‘SG’ will someday play a role in cancer treatment.

That stated, it IS possible that an imbalanced system may produce too much ‘SG’ and thus inhibit the immune system response, thereby leading to ‘cancer’...

...but I also bet that absolutely nothing will be done about it in our lifetimes:

There’s more money in what is currently (and laughably) referenced as ‘cancer treatment’.

The research behind ‘SG’ is appalling, and it hearkens to research which delivered us one of the greatest medical hoaxes of the 20th century: The ‘lipid hypothesis’.

The bottom line is that ‘SG’ is rooted in micro RNA biochemical processes and if anyone here believes this research which professes “there’s still a lot we don’t know regarding what they’re made of and how they work” will do anything but increase hypochondria, I have a fountain in a cave in my backyard which professes to do much more. /a

Fountains in your backyard cave not withstanding.

I got to thinking about Lecithin and it's role as an emulsifier. Went looking for information on whether Lecithin would reduce stress granules.

I didn't find that, but Lecithin does reduce stress.

"The results of the study showed that the 400 mg doses of soy lecithin complex was significantly able to reduce the stress response of the subjects as measured by falling levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and cortisol. However the changes were not seen at higher doses of the supplement.
