Notes: Isabelle supports the Princes Rainforest Project. To Learn more visit, www.rainforestsos.org. One of the most important chemotherapy medicines administered to her during treatment came from a plant derivative of the rainforest, known as vincristine. Vincristine is derived from the periwinkle plant in the rainforest. Survival rates were very low until this important plant was discovered in the rainforest. It is one of the key medicinal plant derivatives used to provide researchers with medical treatments to help children as well as adults become cancer free. 70% of the plants identified as having anti-cancer characteristics by the US National Cancer Institute are found only in the tropical rainforest. Scientists have only learned how to use 1% of these amazing plants so imagine the endless possibilities with the other 99% of undiscovered pants in the rainforest. If we did not have the rainforest, lives could not be saved.
