  • Patent number: 5010107
    Abstract: The present invention describes a protocol for achieving a very high degree of anticarcinogenic (or chemopreventive or cancer preventative) activity through the combination of a low suboptimal dose of a D-glucarolactone-based dietary anticarcinogen (i.e., calcium glucarate or CGT) with a low suboptimal dose of retinoid-based anticarcinogen (4-hydroxyphenyl retinamide or HPR). Since synergism is obtained by this combination, these two anticarcinogens can be employed at dosages far below toxic levels and at dosages that are practical as a food supplement.
