Living the 6 Steps to Cancer Recovery

Step Two

Ever Wonder What Else is Out There That Can Help You?

If you're making decisions about your treatment, do you ever wonder if there's another way to outsmart this cancer you have? Any other treatments that can work and yet don't inflict pain, nausea and the potentially deadly side effects?

This step is about treatment options that can enhance your response to Surgery, Chemotherapy and Radiation. Treatment options that will reduce your side effects and the very real risks that are not spoken about. Step two is also about the options you have that will kill cancer cells without chemo and radiation. 

Don't you owe it to yourself to know what these are?  Don't you owe it to yourself to be educated on your disease and empowered in knowing its recovery options? 

The Critical Factors of Cancer Treatment 

• Improving the Odds of Long Term Survival
• Protecting Against Anemia
• Inhibiting the COX-2 Enzyme - when overexpressed this enzyme could promote cancer and cancer metastasis. 
• Suppressing ras Oncogene Expression - these proteins play a central role in the regulation of cell growth.
• Maintaining bone integrity
• Inhibiting Angiogenesis - the transition of tumors from a dormant state to a malignant one. 

What to Take During Surgery, Chemotherapy and Radiation

The patient who takes antioxidants will usually have fewer short and long-term side effects and many studies have shown that various antioxidants augment the effectiveness of chemo and radiation when taken singly or together.

Differing opinions exist in the naturopathic and medical communities about which supplements should be taken (or not taken) during cancer treatments.

What are Complementary and Alternative Therapies?

They represent one of the fastest growing adjunctive cancer treatment modalities in the United States.
