Cancer Recovery - A Chinese Herbal Prescription

A few centuries ago when nobody knew much about cancer and Western medicine was not yet born, the world could only rely on natural herbs to fight cancer, with mixed results. In modern days, people have a choice between Western medicine and ancient herbs. The former has developed many new procedures like X-ray, surgery, chemotherapy, etc. The latter has not changed much and still relies on the ancient wisdoms.

I would advise a cancer patient to seek help from a Western doctor first for exact diagnosis and scientific treatment because cancer is an urgent case. Due to the fact that Western treatment is very strong and may weaken the body, Chinese herbs can be used to help speed up the recovery process, restore balance, and prevent the spread of the cancer to other organs.

The prescription for cancer recovery should have three basic components: nourish blood, detoxification, and strengthen selective organs:

1) Nourish blood, skin and hair

Shu Di Huang

He Shou Wu

Dang Gui

Ren Shen

2) Detoxification

Xian He Cao

Bai Hua She Cao

Ban Zhi Lian

Huang Bai

3) Strengthen liver and kidneys which purge toxins from body everyday

Long Dan Cao

Gou Qi Zi

Rou Cong Rong

Xu Duan

A combination of 12 herbs mentioned above are recommended.

Other aspects may need strengthening such as stomach (for appetite), lungs (for breathing), Qi (for energy), and Yin (for balance). The package will be adjusted depending on the condition of the patient,

Drink one to two cups (8 oz each) of herb tea a day.

Gradual progress will show such as: hair growth, return of energy and appetite, better skin, more regular body functions, and feeling better overall.

Many patients take Chinese herbs between chemotherapy sessions to help tolerate the trauma.

This is just one formula with countless variations depending on:

* Nature of the cancer.

* Effects of the Western treatment.

* Your constitution affected by the cancer.
