NATURAL CHEMOTHERAPY AGENTS
Although conventional medicine offers a wide variety of effective chemotherapeutic
drugs, some patients seek more naturally occurring compounds for their cancer
treatment. The latter may be the case because of philosophical preference, conventional
drug resistance and/or failure or as an integrated adjunct to surgery and radiation
therapy.
At Kelowna Naturopathic Clinic (KNC) we continually research and explore safe
and effective options for our cancer patients. We have experience utilizing
different naturally derived chemotherapy-like agents including Ukrain (chelidonium
plant alkaloid), Careseng (ginseng derivative), Helixor (mistletoe preparation),
Laetrile (apricot/vegetable seed extract) and High Dose Vitamin C Therapy (made
from corn or beets).
These compounds can be used by themselves or in conjunction with IPT, Whole Body
Infrared Hyperthermia or as part of a complementary treatment program.
