Analysis: Conventional vs Natural Cancer Treatment.

Alternative vs. Traditional

While a surgical procedure may completely eliminate a cancerous growth in the body and chemotherapy drugs can possibly destroy enough cells to keep the disease at bay for years, alternative medicine is not known to cure cancer. Combined with conventional medicine however, it can enhance the body’s ability to overcome the disease, and at the very least make it much easier to deal with the negative side effects of both having cancer and of some of the harsher treatment methods.

Alternative versus traditional medicine for cancer treatment — which is better? One form of medicine is not necessarily better then another and each individual will have their own experience with the disease. To give yourself the best treatment, learn about what is available, have an open discussion with your health care provider about your well-being, and consider using both conventional and alternative therapies. There is no magic pill or cure in a bottle, but combining the strength of chemo, radiation or other modern techniques with the healing support of herbs, nutrition and other alternative techniques your body may have a great chance of returning to health, or at least doing the best that it can while facing the disease.
