As seen on some research, alternatives do take a longer time and some people don't have that. So I agree with you.Miercoles wrote: ↑20 Jan 2019, 14:48 The benefits of an alternative treatment may be affected by the stage of diagnosis of the cancer and general health of the patient. Unfortunately not everyone has time to try alternatives. Having a good treatment team who consider the patient's situation in a holistic manner may provide the most appropriate direction for individuals.

I agree with this. Exercise could really help the body and cells healthy. Eating healthy is also an important thing - avoid or lessen foods that are carcinogenic. Also, my mom boils ginger for me to drink! And I can also say it's effective sometimes! Glad to know someone is also using ginger as medicine sometimes.

Alternative, natural medicines are vital for treating the whole person (mind, body, and soul) not just their illness.
Especially where diet is concerned, since many of our foods have naturally healing properties.

I completely feel for your family in this struggle, OP. And I want you to know that you are not alone. I don't feel that all alternative medicine should be discarded outright but I do think you should research everything responsibly and thoroughly before choosing certain treatments. They can be beneficial when used in tandem with traditional medicine.
Every patient has the right to choose their treatments BUT I really urge everyone not to abandon traditional medicine practices in favor of alternative practices that have not been fully tested and are based solely on anecdotal evidence without scientific proof.
