Natural Strategies for Cancer Patients - by Russell L Blaylock (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

THE BEST WAYS TO FIGHT CANCER AND HEAL YOUR BODY NATURALLY

This revised, updated edition of Russell L. Blaylock's revolutionary guide offers the latest cutting-edge information on how and why cancer develops, why conventional treatments fail, and the critical role inflammation plays in all stages of this deadly disease. Using the latest medical discoveries and most authoritative research, Blaylock reveals why essential natural compounds--vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals--can halt the spread of cancer. With the right combination of diet and nutrition, patients can develop their built-in immune mechanisms to stop the growth of cancer cells and protect their bodies from the debilitating, sometimes lethal effects of chemotherapy. In this new edition, you'll discover:

*The remarkable role plant extracts play in killing and controlling cancer cells, reducing the side effects of treatment, and relieving treatment-related depression, anxiety, and stress
*The vitamins, fruits, and over-the-counter special plant extracts that protect the heart and brain against toxic effects of chemotherapy
*The powerful mushroom extract that stimulates anti-cancer immune cells selectively
*Which commonly used cooking oils can battle cancer and those that stimulate cancer growth and spread
