Question

Cancer is a disease where body cells grow unchecked. A protein found in the body interferes with the growth of cancer cells. It is used for the treatment of cancer. Identify it.

• A. Haemoglobin
• B. Casein
• C. Keratin
• D. Interferon

Answer 1

The correct option is B Casein

Casein is a slow-digesting dairy protein that people often take as a supplement. It releases amino acids slowly, so people often take it before bed to help with recovery and reduce muscle breakdown while they sleep. Several studies have shown it helps boost muscle growth, along with a ton of other benefits.

Also Casein interferes with the growth of cancer cells and hence is also used for the treatment of cancer.

Hence option B is correct answer.
