There are many Chinese herbs or herbal formula that are used in
the treatment of cancer.
Compared with conventional western medicine in the
treatment of cancer, the advantage of Chinese herbal therapy
are:
(1).
The treatment of cancer is wholistic. The herbs work not only to
prevent the cancer growth in local spot, but also improve the
ability of the defense system of the whole body, so that to
prevent any new growth of cancer in any other part of the body
and to prevent the spread of the current cancer cell to grow in
other part of the body.

conventional medicine, the chemotherapy or radiation therapy
could cause lots of side effects, such as bleeding, frequent
infection, poor appetite, nausea, vomiting,
constipation/diarrhea, chronic fatigue. To solve these symptoms,
additional chemical drugs are needed. With Chinese herbal
therapy, the symptoms due to the cancer and/or to the therapies
are solved at the same time.

we mentioned above, the standard chemotherapy or radiation
therapy damaged the defense system of the body. While the
Chinese herbal therapy, by improving the overall body condition,
actually improves the defense system of the body, so that there
is much less chance for patients to get new or additional
infections during the treatment.
