EFFECT OF DIFFERENT TYPES ACTIVATED WATER AND SALT-SOLUTIONS ON TUMOR-GROWTH IN MICE

Effect of distillated water activated by physical and chemical methods , on the growth and metastatic spreading of the transplantable Lewis l ung carcinoma in C57BL/6 mice and of leukemia K-562 cells in vitro was studied. The mice received water from melted ice, magneted, ''shock'' , anodic and cathodic water naturally or per os during 4-5 weeks. It w as established reliable stimulation of metastatic process and the rate of metastases growth without the effect on primary tumor. Under usual and saltless diet CaCl2, MgCl2, KCl and NaCl solution reliability inh ibited metastatic process of Lewis lung carcinoma or showed an appropr iate tendency. Saltless diet hampered primary tumor growth and reduced metastatic process. The mechanism of the enfluence of activated water and salt solution on primary tumor and metastatic process was suggest ed.
