General Cancer Details

• Cancer is a disease of the cells that normally multiply and die in an orderly way, so that each new cell replaces one that has been lost, however sometimes cells become abnormal (cancerous) and keep growing, forming a tumour (a mass or lump) or an ulcer (a sore).
• Some of these are malignant (cancerous) and can grow and spread to other parts of the body.

• Cancer is a leading cause of death group worldwide and accounted for 7.4 million deaths (around 13% of all deaths).
• More than 70% of all Cancer deaths occurred in low-income and middle-income countries.
• Deaths from Cancer worldwide are projected to continue rising, with an estimated 11.5 million deaths in 2030.
• More than 30% of Cancer are caused by several leading behavioural (lifestyle) and environmental risks that are potentially modifiable.
• Tobacco use is the single largest preventable cause of Cancer in the world today (responsible for up to 1.5 million Cancer deaths a year).

The Main Types of Cancer are:

• Lung (about 1.3 million deaths/year)
• Stomach (about 803,000 deaths/year)
• Colorectal (about 639,000 deaths/year)
• Liver (about 610,000 deaths/year)
• Breast (about 519,000 deaths/year)

Causes of Cancers

• Changes (mutations) to the DNA within cells. The DNA inside a cell is packaged into a large number of individual genes, each of which contains a set of instructions telling the cell what functions to perform, and how to grow and divide. Errors in the instructions can cause the cell to stop its normal function and may allow a cell to become cancerous.

1) Carcinogen – Food, substance and other agents that foster the development of Cancer.

2) Mutagens – Substances that produce changes in the genetic code of the cells. Mutagens are formed when foods are fried or roasted, particularly Meat Products.

Common Carcinogens:
• Tobacco smoke,
• Certain food additives such as nitrites,
• The substances that form during the cooking of meat,
• Chemical contaminants such as pesticides,
• Some viruses and molds and
• Radiation.

Note:

* Virtually all anti-carcinogens are plant-based (foods or substances that neutralizes the action of carcinogens and slows or prevents the development of Cancer).

Cancer Causing Factors

• Diets (35%)
• Tobacco (30%)
• Genetic (6%)
• Viral causes (5%)
• Work environment (4%)
• Solar Radiation (3%)
• Environmental pollution (3%)
• Alcohol (3%)
• Other causes (11%)

Risk Factors for Cancer

• Certain lifestyle choices (including tobacco and/or Alcohol use)
• Dietary factors (including insufficient fruit and Vegetable intake)
• Family history
• Overweight and Obesity
• Physical inactivity
• Chronic Infections (from helicobacter pylori, Hepatitis B virus [HBV], Hepatitis C virus [HCV] and some types of human papilloma virus [HPV])
• environmental and occupational risks (including ionizing and non-ionizing radiation)
• Some chronic health conditions (such as ulcerative Colitis) can markedly increase the risk of developing certain Cancers.

Possible Signs of Cancer

• Any sore or cut that does not heal.
• Persistent hoarseness that does not clear up within reasonable time (2 weeks).
• Any irregular bleeding from any body cavity.
• Indigestion that persists after middle life.
• Any unexplained swelling or lump in or on the body.
• Any change of form or growth of a mole or wart.
• Any change in bowel habits.
• Any unexplained weight loss.

General Signs and Symptoms of Cancer

• An unexplained weight loss of 10 pounds or more may be the First sign of Cancer (especially Cancer of the pancreas, stomach, esophagus, or lung).
• Fever is very common with Cancer, but it more often happens after Cancer has spread from where it started (especially Cancer of the blood like Leukemia or Lymphoma).
• Fatigue (extreme tiredness) that doesn’t get better with rest, may be an important symptom as Cancer grows (especially in like Leukemia and some colon or Stomach Cancer).

• Pain may be an early symptom with some Cancer like Bone Cancer or testicular Cancer.
• Back Pain can be a symptom of Cancer of the colon, rectum, or ovary.
• Skin Cancer, some other Cancer can cause Skin changes such as hyperpigmentation (darker looking Skin), Jaundice (yellowish Skin and Eyes), erythema (reddened Skin), pruritis (itching), and excessive Hair growth.

• Long-term Constipation, Diarrhea, or a change in the size of the stool may be a sign of Colon Cancer.
• Pain when passing urine, blood in the urine, or a change in bladder function (such as needing to pass urine more or less often than usual) could be related to bladder or Prostate Cancer.
• Skin Cancer may bleed and look like sores that don’t heal.

• A long-lasting sore in the mouth could be an Mouth Cancer (Oral Cancer).
• Sores on the penis or vagina may either be signs of Infection or an early Cancer.
• White Patches inside the mouth and white spots on the Tongue may be leukoplakia (a pre-cancerous area that’s caused by frequent irritation due to Smoking or other tobacco use).

• Unusual bleeding can happen in early or advanced Cancer.
• Coughing up blood may be a sign of Lung Cancer.
• Blood in the stool (which can look like very dark or black stool) could be a sign of colon or Rectal Cancer.

• Cancer of the cervix or the endometrium (lining of the uterus) can cause abnormal vaginal bleeding.
• Blood in the urine may be a sign of bladder or Kidney Cancer.
• A bloody discharge from the nipple may be a sign of Breast Cancer.

• Thickening or lump in the breast, testicle, Lymph nodes (glands), and the soft tissues of the body may be an early or late sign of Cancer.
• Indigestion or swallowing problems that don’t go away may be signs of Cancer of the esophagus (the swallowing tube that goes to The Stomach), stomach, or pharynx (throat).
• Any wart, mole, or freckle that changes color, size, or shape, or that loses its sharp border.

• A Cough that does not go away may be a sign of Lung Cancer.
• Hoarseness can be a sign of Cancer of the Larynx ( voice box) or Thyroid Gland.

How Cancer Begins

• Cells in the body stop their work and begin to grow wild and invade the boundaries of other cells even pressing on other organs or tissues, causing pain and interfering with the functions of the vital structures.

• A battle commences there and then, since the body is governed by laws which are just as unchangeable as the laws governing the paths of the planets and stars.

• Cancer is like toadstools because it grows on dead stumps. A good circulation, vibrant and vigorous body tissue have a much better chance than poor, decrepit, half-sick, tired individual.

• Enormous efforts are being made worldwide in order to discover the factors causing Cancer and ways to increase Cancer Prevention & control.

• The most important of these factors is improper diets.

• The dietary habits of a majority of population today show that too many animal-based foods which foster Cancer is being consumed as compared to plant-based foods which help protect against Cancer.

A Very Important Cancer Discussion

• Past studies have shown that common causes of many other diseases and Cancer initiation and progression is due to a combination of cellular redox homeostasis imbalances and elevated free radical production.

• There is a very significant correlation between metastasis promotion (often results in poor prognosis), increased free radicals (reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species) and rapid progression of Cancer cells to tumour development.

• The current treatment for Cancer patients (such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy), may also contribute to oxidative damage to the Cancerous tumour cells and the adjacent healthy cells.

• Many clinical trials have suggested that anti-oxidants can shield the healthy cells from oxidative Stress induced by these therapies, minimizing the subsequent side effects in Cancer patients, therefore alternate strategy to protect normal healthy cells from DNA damage and limit the progression of Cancer cells is the use of anti-oxidants in scavenging the free radicals.

• Nevertheless, some transformed Cancer cells can adapt to extreme oxidative Stress and develop anti-oxidant defense system (with enhanced scavenging capacity and intrinsic ROS toxicity survival capacity through upregulation of survival Proteins), thus enable Cancer cells to evade reactive oxygen species (ROS) mediated apoptosis.

• For instance, significant upregulation of anti-oxidant enzymes (peroxiredoxin-3 and thioredoxin peroxidase) is noticiable in H-ras-transformed cells with increased superoxide and hydrogen peroxide levels.

Note:

* Exogenous anti-oxidants alone may not be effective to eliminate the transformed Cancer.
* Furthermore, elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) level in Cancer cells are found to affect neighbouring cells to acquire uncontrolled reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, through intercellular transfer of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).

• Anti-oxidants are still needed to stop reactive oxygen species (ROS) from spreading, by salvaging the unaffected cells adjacent to transformed Cancer cells and limit tumour expansion.

• Therefore, multi-targeted therapy concept (Anti-Inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-oxidant and anti-tumour herbs/properties is used) is necessary to exert complex synergistic and antagonistic effects to act on multiple pathophysiological pathways in order to achieve optimal therapeutic outcome.

Gene Mutations

• Gene mutations occur frequently during normal cell growth, however cells contain a mechanism that recognizes when a mistake occurs and repairs the mistake, but an occasion may occure when a mistake is missed, causing a cell to become cancerous.

Gene mutations can occur because of several reasons, for instance:
1) Hereditary genetic mutation from parents.
2) Health and lifestyle (such as Smoking, radiation, viruses, carcinogens [cancer-causing chemicals], Obesity, Hormones, chronic inflammation and a lack of exercise.).

A gene mutation can instruct a healthy cell to:
1) Grow and divide more rapidly, creating many new cells that all have that same mutation.
2) Lose the controls (tumor suppressor genes) that tell cells when to stop growing. A mutation in a tumor suppressor gene allows Cancer cells to continue growing and accumulating.
3) Make mistakes when repairing DNA errors (especially DNA repair genes), leading cells to become cancerous.

Early Detection for Cancer

There are two (2) components of early detection efforts:
• Early Diagnosis – The awareness of early signs and symptoms in order to facilitate diagnosis and treatment before the disease becomes advanced (such as cervical, breast and Mouth Cancer (Oral Cancer)s).
• Screening – The systematic application of a screening test in a preSumably asymptomatic population with the aims to identify individuals with an abnormality suggestive of a specific Cancer. Examples of screening methods such as PAP test for Cervical Cancer, Mammography.

Complications for Cancer

• Cancer and its treatment can cause several complications, including:
• Pain can be caused by Cancer or by Cancer treatment.
• Fatigue associated with chemotherapy or radiation therapy treatments is common, but it’s usually temporary.
• Difficulty breathing (Cancer or Cancer treatment may cause a feeling of being short of breath).
• Certain Cancers and Cancer treatments can cause Nausea.
• Diarrhea or Constipation (Cancer and Cancer treatment can affect bowels and cause Diarrhea or Constipation).
• Weight loss (Cancer steals food from normal cells and deprives them of nutrients).
• Cancer can upset the normal chemical balance causing excessive thirst, frequent urination, Constipation and confusion.
• Brain Cancer can cause Headaches and stroke-like signs and symptoms.
• Cancer can press on nearby nerves and cause pain and loss of function.
• Paraneoplastic syndrome (a very rare reactions/unusual Immune System reactions to Cancer by attacking healthy cells, leading to a variety of signs and symptoms [such as difficulty walking and seizures]).
• Cancer spreads.
• Cancer can return after treatment.

• Preventing/reducing harmful use of alcohol.
• Exercise most days of the week.
• Reduce exposure and promote protection against infectious agents associated with Cancer.
• Reduce exposure and promote protective actions against carcinogens in the environment and workplace.
• Maintain a healthy weight.
• Avoid excessive sun exposure or harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun (or limit sun exposure by staying in the shade, wearing protective clothing or applying sunscreen).
• Schedule Cancer screening exams.

Best Strategies for Dietary Cancer Risks Prevention

Expert Advice:

* The First 4 strategies are in order of importance.
* Regular physical activity reduces Cancer risk through several powerful and synergistic mechanisms.
* Expert panel of world-renown Cancer experts recommended, that fast foods be consumed sparingly, if at all (Food, Nutrition, Physical Activity and the Prevention of Cancer: A Global Perspective. washington, DC AICR, 2007, [World Cancer Research Fund and American Institute for Cancer Research]).

1) Strictly avoid all forms of tobacco exposure.

2) Maintain an optimal weight throughout your life – BMI <25" (waist size), <32.5" (for females), <36" (for males)

3) Be physically active/exercise regularly the rest of your life as it reduces cancer risk.

4) Limit consumption of processed/fast foods, sugary beverages, and junk foods. These foods are those most adept at causing weight gain.

5) Avoid or minimize the highly refined, high glycemic index. – Highly refined, high glycemic index (white flour products, White Rice, White Potatoes, sugar, and products containing them). Use instead Whole Grains and Beans/legumes. These foods trigger hormonal changes that can promote tumor growth (especially in breast, colon, and Prostate tissue) in addition to driving appetite and promoting weight gain.

6) Consume as many Fruits and Vegetables as possible. – Fruits and Vegetables are loaded with cancer-protective nutrients (Vitamin C, Beta-Carotene, Folate, etc.) and those remarkable, immune boosting, Anti-Inflammatory, detoxifying Phytochemicals.

7) Focus on the superstar cancer-protective Fruits. – Superstar cancer-protective Fruits (Apples with Skin, berries, Avocados, all whole citrus, Cantaloupes, Mangoes, kiwi, Pomegranates, Cherries​, Asian Plums, red/purple Grapes).

8) Focus on the superstar cancer-protective Vegetables. – Superstar cancer-protective Vegetables (all cruciferous [Broccoli, Cabbage, Brussels Sprouts, Cauliflower, Watercress], Carrots, Tomatoes, Asparagus, Butter nut, Squash), allium group (Garlic, Onions, Leeks, Chives, Scallions), Dark Leafy Greens (Spinach, Kale, Collards, dark Lettuces], Sweet Potatoes, etc).

9) Minimize consumption of omega-6 fats. – Omega-6 fats or linoleic acid containing fats (Sunflower, Safflower, Corn (Maize), Soybean Oil). Lineolic acid also seems to be a preferred source of nutrition for Cancer cells. They can also promote excessive growth and inflammation.

10) Maximize your consumption of Omega-3 fats. – Omega-3 fats (Salmon Fish, Tuna Fish, Mackerel Fish, Sardines, lake Trout Fish, and Herring). Omega-3 fats counter excessive cellular growth and inflammation.

11) Strictly avoid trans fats. – Trans fats (hydrogenated oils, Shortening, stick Margarine). These fats serve no beneficial purpose in the body and have been associated with some forms of Cancer.

12) Choose plant-based fats. – Choose plant-based fats such as Canola Oil, extra virgin Olive Oil, nuts/seeds, and Avocados as your main sources of fat.

13) Limit consumption of Red Meat to 2 servings or less a week and avoid processed varieties. – Red Meat (Beef, Pork, and lamb)
* Excessive Red Meat consumption can enhance Cancer risk.

14) Get your Vitamin D – Safe sun exposure (10-15 minutes daily between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM). Vitamin D plays a key role in Cancer protection and deficiencies are epidemic.

15) Herbs and spices contain very powerful Anti-Inflammatory Phytochemicals. – Excessive inflammation can promote Cancer (Turmeric/curry, Ginger, Rosemary, and Garlic are especially beneficial).

16) Restrict Alcohol. – Alcohol consumption can increase the risk of Cancers of the colon, breast, throat, esophagus, uterus, cervix, mouth, and Liver.

17) Get screened.

Foods in the Treatment of Cancer

There is an intimate relationship between Cancer and the diet. Some diets cause it while others help prevent it.
• Cancer Prevention requires an increased intake of Beta-Carotene (Provitamin A), Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Fiber and Phytochemical elements.
• These are almost exclusively in plant-based foods (Fruits, nuts, grains, legumes and Vegetables).
• Check out Vitamin B17.

1) Fruits – Abundant Fruit consumption prevents most of the Cancers that affect humans.

• Citrus – (such as Lemons, Oranges and Grapefruit) anti-carcinogenic capacity is due to the combined effect of Vitamin C, Flavonoids, limonoids and Pectin.
• Asian Plums & Apples – protects against Colon Cancer.
• Pineapples – prevent Stomach Cancer.
• Grapes Skin – have Resveratrol which are anti-carcinogenic.
• Blackberries, Strawberries, Blueberries & Blackcurrants – rich in anthocynanins (powerful antioxidants that neutralize the carcinogenic effect of free radicals).
• Acerolas, Guavas & Kiwi Fruit – Very high in Vitamin C content.

2) Olive Oil – Consumption reduces Breast Cancer, thus increasing Cancer Prevention & control.

3) Whole Grain Fiber – Accelerates movement through the bowel, retains and removes carcinogenic substances that may be in the Digestive tract, excreting them with the feces.

4) Vegetables – Their richness in Provitamin A, Vitamin C and antioxidant Phytochemicals explain their anti-carcinogenic effect.

• Red Beets contains Phytochemicals (such as beta-cyanin) which are anti-carcinogenic.
• Carrots contains high concentration of Beta-Carotene (Provitamin A), other Carotenoids and Fiber which explain its carcinogenic effect.

5) Solanaceae Botanical Family – Tomatoes, sweet Peppers and Eggplants contains a concentration of Beta-Carotene (Provitamin A), Carotenoids and Vitamin C which are powerful antioxidants).

6) Liliaceae Botanical Family – All members, particularly Onions, and Garlic contain Flavonoids and Sulfurated essences that protect against Cancer).

7) Crucifers Botanical Family – Cabbage, Cauliflower, Broccoli and Radishes are the crucifers best known for their Cancer Prevention properties).

8) Plain Yogurt – Protects against Cancer and particularly Breast Cancer. Its active bacterial and lactic acid partially explains this protective effect.

9) Legumes – Protect against Cancer because of their richness in Fiber and Phytochemicals (such as phytic acid and phytates) which are anti-carcinogenic.

• Soybean and its derivatives (Tofu and Soybean Milk) provide a variety of Phytochemicals (Isoflavones genistein and diadzein) that are particularly effective against breast and Prostate Cancer.

• Avoid excess calories from Protein or fat sources, particularly animal-based (such as meat, eggs or Milk).

• Avoid smoked, pickled, salted or highly spiced foods.

• Avoid consuming very hot foods and beverages.

• Avoid Caffeinated beverages, Coffee and tobacco. A combination of these 3 potentiate carcinogenic effect.

Cancer Treatment Holistic Approach

• Herbal Actions (Appropriate Herbal Actions for Cancer may include Alterative, Lymphatic, and tonic herbs)
• System tonics support for the site of the tumor is essential.
• Immune System support (with an emphasis on deep immune stimulation, eliminative support, and Stress management).

Herbs to Support a Holistic Approach to Cancer

• Cleavers
• Bloodroot
• Blue Flag
• Burdock
• Calendula
• Chaparral

Herbal Remedies of Tumours (Benign & Malignant)

1) A good double handful of Horsetail is put into a sieve and this is placed over a pot of boiling Water. The soft, hot herbs are placed between a pieces of linen and applied to the tumour, growth, cyst, ulcer, adenoma, melanoma, papilloma, or hematoma.

• In very serious cases the application of the plaster is started in the morning while the patient is still in bed and left on for 2 hours.

• In the afternoon it is applied again while in bed for 2 hours, and again overnight.

2) During midday Swedish Bitters as a dressing is applied for 4 hours. First the area is smeared with oil or Calendula ointment, then a piece of cotton wool, moistened with Swedish Bitters, and a dry piece of cotton wool on top is applied, covered with a piece of plastic and finally well wrapped with a cloth.

• After removal of the dressing, the Skin has to be powdered to prevent the development of a rash.

3) Fresh Plantain and Cow Parsnip leaves are applied as a plaster for tumours, ulcers and growths which are external.

• Regularly and continuously applied, this plasters can bring about an improvement on the 5th day and a result after 10-14 days.

• The freshly pressed juice of Wood Sorrel (the leaves are washed and still wet put in the juice extractor) rubbed on the affected area is effective.

4) One (1) cup of Horsetail tea is drunk half an hour before Breakfast and another cup half an hour before the evening meal.

• 1.5-2 litres of a tea made from 300gm Calendula, 100gm Yarrow and 100gm Stinging Nettle (well-mixed) is drunk during the day. 3-5 drops of Wood Sorrel juice are added per cup of this tea. 6 times a day, if possible, a cup of the tea is taken in intervals of one hour.

Wheat Grass

• Hijiki (Seaweed) – Seaweeds have sargassum stenophyllum (a polysaccharide) investigated the anti-tumoral properties and possible Anti-Cancer effects (Cancer Chemotherapy and pharmacology, 2005).

• Lemongrass – Its citral content causes apoptosis in Cancer cells without damaging healthy cells, hence it’s helpful in the healing process of Cancer patients and they are encouraged to take fresh Lemongrass tea while undergoing radiation or chemotherapy treatments (Ben Gurion University in Israel and in Fundamentals of Clinical pharmacology journal, 2009).

• Miracle Fruit – It can help relieve chemotherapy symptoms (such as metallic taste in the mouth, Nausea and Vomiting) as it can often correct chemotherapy-related taste disturbances (mitigate the lingering taste), helping to provide a higher quality of life during Cancer treatment.

• Peaches – Its chlorogenic acid and neochlorogenic acid exert beneficial effects in inhibiting the growth of Breast Cancer cells without affecting the normal cells, unlike Cancer treatment with chemotherapy, which negatively affects healthy cells as well.

• Sea-Buckthorn Berries – Sea-Buckthorn Berries juice and its anti-oxidants can slow down cancerous tumor growth, limiting the toxicity of chemical Cancer treatment (chemotherapy) and illnesses induced by the proceedure, and inhibit cisplatin (a cancer-causing chemical) or other cancer-causing genetic abnormalities.

• Shiitake Mushroom – It contain AHCC (Active Hexose Correlated Compound – an alpha-glucan rich compound produced from the mycelia of Shiitake) which is used to protect the Immune System of Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiation).

• Wampee Fruit – Wampee Fruit peel possesses quite potent anti-tumor properties in the sense that it appears to inhibit the proliferation of Cancer cells and tumor growth. Wampee peel potency is comparable to that of a class of chemotherapy and Anti-Cancer medication known as cisplatinum (Journal of Biomedicine and Biotechnology, Vol. 2009).

• Wheat Grass – It can also help attenuate chemotherapy-related side effects such as fatigue, malabsorption and deficiencies.

• African Wild Potato – It also helps in lowering the growth of different types of Cancer and the adverse effects of chemotherapy.

• Asmatica – Asmatica may also be of value in the treatment of Cancer as it contain tylophorine. Tylophorine has Anti-Inflammatory and anti-tumor properties.

• Astragalus – It slows (or prevents) tumour growth and facilitates the side effects of chemotherapy.

• Birthwort – It has Anti-Cancer properties and can be used in conjunction with chemotherapy and radiotherapy as it encourages white blood cell activity. Caution: * Birthwort when used in large doses (or even in small doses over a long period) can be carcinogenic (even though it has Anti-Cancer properties) and also damaging to the kidneys.

• Canella – Canella is cytotoxic (kills cells), thus effective in arresting/lowering the multiplication for wide range of Cancer prone cells in the body. Its leaf oil beta-caryophyllene content has the ability to facilitate the passage of paclitaxel (a mitotic inhibitor used in chemotherapy) into the cells, thus potentiating the Anti-Cancer activity. Its consumption helps to lowers the signs of Cancer and assists in quick recovery of people who have undergone (or undergoing) radiation therapy and chemotherapy.

• Chaparral – It may slow down the growth of tumors, destroy cancerous cells and protect healthy cells from the negative side effects of chemotherapy.

• Galangal – Galangal is a potentially revolutionary cancer-fighting agent. A liquid extract of Galangal significantly destroy a number of Cancer cells, thus a natural Cancer treatment that wouldn’t damage adjoining cells, like dangerous chemotherapy.

• Ginseng – Its a key herb in maintaining health and quality of life in those with Cancer (or going through chemotherapy).

• Goldenseal – Goldenseal may help treat Cancer thanks to berberine (an isoquinoline Alkaloid) which induce apoptosis in Cancer cells, thus inhibit the growth and spread of Cancer cells more effectively than doxorubicin (a chemotherapy drug) while leaving healthy cells untouched.

• Marijuana – Marijuana can help reduce side effects (such as severe pain, painful Nausea, Vomiting, and loss of appetite) in Cancer patients going through chemotherapy. Marijuana (or its cannabinoids) are powerfully anti-emetic and analgesic herb, particularly helpful for Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and AIDS patients.

• Madagascar Periwinkle – Greater Periwinkle vinca Alkaloids have cytotoxic effects that can arrest the division of cells and causes cell death, thus have been generally included in combination chemotherapy regimens for medicinal therapies and do not have cross-resistance with drugs that alkylate deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), but have a different mechanism of action. Vinca Alkaloids have the second most-used class of Cancer drugs and will stay among the original Cancer therapies.

• Reishi Mushroom – Reishi Mushroom is found to reduce side effects during chemotherapy while improving the quality of life (study at Cornell Medical College).

• Sabah Snake Grass – Its extracts are potential cytoprotective anti-oxidant agents, thus may be reduce the oxidative Stress side effects resulting from chemotherapy drugs and radiotherapy. Sabah Snake Grass leaves extracts are capable of inhibiting the proliferation of various types of human Cancer cells, but they are non-toxic to hypoxic human Saos-2 osteosarcoma cells (known to be resistant to radiotherapy and chemotherapy).

• Siberian Ginseng – Siberian Ginseng supports Vitality​ and healthy function when taking chemotherapy and may reduce side effects during conventional Cancer treatment.

• Soursop Leaves – Soursop leaves can be used as an even more effective chemotherapy because it only kill cells that grow abnormally , but lets the other cells grow normally. 10 Soursop leaves boiled in 3 cups Water until the remaining 1 cup, drink 2 times daily for 2 weeks.

• Turkey Tail Mushroom – Turkey Tail Mushrooms are used for reducing the toxic effects and pain of chemotherapy and radiation therapy, increasing the effectiveness of chemotherapy, prolonging life and Raising the quality of life of Cancer patients.

• Zedvoary Root – Zedvoary contain curcumol and curdione which have Cancer fighting properties and increase the cancer-killing effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

• Zhi Mu – Zhi Mu is effective in relieving severe adverse reactions (or side effects) associated with conventional chemotherapy and radiation treatments in Cancer patients as X-rays used in radiation treatment and drugs used in chemotherapy are considered heat toxins (very toxic agents that can kill tumor cells, but also toxic to the body), causing excessive build-up of heat inside the lungs and damaging the kidneys.
