Natural Cancer Treatments
Tuesday, May 18th, 2010Cancer Treatments have traditionally involved radiation and chemotherapy, but as people seek more natural treatment for cancer, alternative methods have evolved. Integrative care, which combines the positive aspects of traditional and modern medicine have provided alternate therapies to treat or enhance the treatment of cancer. The treatments used depend on the natural cancer doctors and the patients, but each treatment is meant to provide the patient with tools to eradicate cancer and prevent recurrence.One fairly common among Natural Cancer Treatments is high doses of Vitamin C administered intravenously. High vitamin C doses impact cancer cells because they contain a pro-oxidative characteristic. As the excess vitamin levels accumulate in body tissues, hydrogen peroxide forms naturally. To healthy cells, this hydrogen peroxide is harmless, but for cancer cells lacking a catalase enzyme, the effect is lethal. High doses of this vitamin can also create free radicals which help destroy cancer cells. This treatment has minimal side effects, is natural and trouble-free.
