Reversing Cancer Using Clinically Proven Alternative Therapies
Every cell in the body has the ability to turn cancerous, and many do so on a daily basis, which means that everyone is at risk of getting cancer. Naturally, prevention is the best course of action, or early detection.
However, if you or a loved one have been diagnosed with one of one hundred different types of cancer, there are ways to reverse it, and even cure it, using clinically proven complementary and alternative therapies.
Many factors contribute to the development of cancer and many modalities and substances must be used to reverse it. Nutrition, diet, emotional well-being, and lifestyle must all be examined. Alternative therapies strive for the restoration of your immune system without the use of poisonous chemicals commonly used in conventional medicine such as chemotherapy and radiation.
According to Robert C. Atkins, M.D., the key to success in alternative medicine approaches to cancer is to gather as much data as possible on each patient, then to apply what he calls the "Hippocratic pecking order." This means using the more benign, nontoxic therapies first and saving the riskier, more invasive therapies for last, if ever. Dr. Atkins has observed that, in general, people diagnosed with advanced-stage cancers benefit more from various alternative therapies than from chemotherapy. He also regards Ukrain (a substance derived from a combination of a common weed called celedine and thiophosphoric acid - one of the original chemotherapeutic agents) as the single best anticancer agent he has used to date. "Like chemotherapy, it kills cancer cells very well but, unlike chemotherapy, it spares normal, healthy tissue.
If the medical community were willing to give it a try, Ukrain could replace chemotherapy in treating almost all cancers." Other alternative therapies being used to treat and/or cure cancer are botanicals such as goldenseal, pokeroot, wild indigo, thuja, figwort, red clover, Essiac, and astragalus. The specific choice and amounts prescribed will vary depending on the individual and what other treatments are being administered at the same time.
In addition to botanicals, often times one or more other therapies such as detoxification, bodywork, acupuncture, Qigong, and Traditional Chinese Medicine will be part of the program.
