                                                                                                                                                                                                                       I started my journey for cancer treatment information in 2000 when my father was diagnosed with stage 4 colon and liver cancer. He was given three months to live, but I refused to accept that fate for him. At that time, I was a doctor who treated musculoskeletal and neuromuscular injuries and had little knowledge about cancer, except that standard cancer treatment was chemo, radiation, and surgery.

 

So, I began researching and found a hospital that used state-of-the-art surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation and recognized the importance of alternative means to help the healing process of its patients. While my father was undergoing low-dose chemotherapy for the next six months, I changed his diet and added liquid protein drinks, vitamin and mineral supplements, herbs, and light exercise to strengthen his body to fight the side effects of the chemo and build back his muscle loss. Published clinical studies on using vitamins, minerals, herbs, and exercise helped me help my father, and he was cancer-free within a year and lived 15 more years.

 

Over the next 20 years as the internet expanded, I began researching and collecting clinical studies on protein, vitamin and mineral supplements, herbs, and exercise with the hopes of helping people help themselves in their fight to cure their cancer.

                                                                      MALNUTRITION AND SURVIVING CANCER                                                                Malnutrition (cachexia-muscle wasting) is a big problem in people who get cancer, especially the elderly. Undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapy increases this problem. The condition affects up to 80% of patients depending on tumor type and stage, according to the National Cancer Institute. The side effects of cancer treatment are anorexia, mucositis, nausea, and vomiting, resulting in additional malnutrition and weight loss of 31% to 87%. Approximately 20% of cancer patients die from malnutrition and not cancer itself. ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4676158/  ) Weight loss reduces muscle mass, increases toxicity from treatment, decreases the body's immune response, increases the chance of infection, decreases the healing process, increases hospital stay, reduces quality of life, and accelerates suffering and death. Up to half the people who die from cancer are malnourished. It is essential for your survival to keep your food intake up, especially good quality protein, and supplement your diet with additional vitamins, minerals, and herbs to improve the response of your cancer treatments.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              As little as a 5% drop in weight can predict shorter survival. People undergoing cancer treatment should aim to maintain their weight as much as possible. If they experience a small drop in weight (three to four kg), they might be at risk of malnutrition. It is important to remember that malnutrition can occur even if you are overweight.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                Supplements- Vit. A, C, E, omega essential fatty acids, essential amino acids, digestive enzymes, HMB (cachexia), protein drinks- (whey & vegan) with and without high carbohydrates, herbs, anti-nausea drugs like the marijuana drug Marinol to encourage you to eat, smaller meals, if possible light exercise, and avoid dairy with breast cancer. Malnutrition is almost epidemic' among patients with advanced cancer.                                                                                  1.https://www.healio.com/news/hematology-oncology/20170613/malnutrition-almost-epidemic-among-patients-with-advanced-cancer                                                                                                                                                                                          Regardless of cancer type, the overall prevalence of malnutrition in cancer is about 40% and has remained constant for the last 30 years [10]. In patients with cancer, severe weight loss before treatment varies from 7 to 57%, which may result in increased rates of complications                                                                                                                                                                                                              Malnutrition signs and symptoms include:

Losing more than 1 to 2 pounds a week

Loss of appetite and general weakness and fatigue

A body mass index, or BMI, below 18.5

A decrease in activity or energy

Most times, take with food during the beginning or middle of your meal with water. This will allow for better digestion. If you plan on taking multiple supplements or herbs, begin slowly by taking only one supplement the first two days and then adding supplements, herbs, etc., every two to three days. If you have an adverse reaction to one supplement or herb, try to find a similar one from another company with higher-quality ingredients. The purity of the supplements and herbs is very important, so please don't fall for the cheaper price. Look at the ingredients on the label before you buy it, and check out the company's history of manufacturing it. Never take more than the directed dose unless advised to by your doctor or healthcare provider.                                                             PROTEIN DRINK SUPPLEMENTATION FOR MUSCLE WEIGHT LOSS.                                   Whey, pea protein, soy, and hemp drinks help fight the muscle wasting (cachexia) and weight loss that is associated with all types of cancer. These drinks are an excellent source of superior-quality proteins, vitamins, minerals, and lactose that contribute to proper nutrition, help hamper illness, and even complement certain disease-related therapy prognoses. Avoid high fructose corn syrup in these drinks, as this sweetener has been linked to many serious health issues, including obesity, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome. Many manufacturers of these products exist. So, it is trial and error. I suggest trying both the whey protein shake and the vegan protein shake to see which one your body assimilates the best.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                HMB SUPPLEMENT TO STOP MUSCLE WEIGHT LOSS.                                                             HMB    (Hydroxymethylbutyrate) has an anti-catabolic effect, enhances protein synthesis, and attenuates proteolysis.                                                                                                     BREAST CANCER                                                                                   The most frequently diagnosed type of cancer globally and the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women in the United States. It is a complex disease caused by progressive genetic mutations associated with other factors. These other factors include modern-day choices, such as a sedentary lifestyle, excess processed food in the diet, being overweight, and obesity. It is essential to help yourself treat this disease to give you a better chance of survival.                                    Astaxanthin (ASX)- is a common carotenoid found in shrimp, salmon, crab, rainbow trout, and starfish. Clinical studies indicate this supplement can stop metastasis (secondary cancerous growth) in other body areas. It has been shown to reduce the rapid reproduction of breast cancer cells and prevent the movement of cancer cells to other parts of the body.         - belongs to a group of colored pigments called carotenoids. They are converted to vitamin A in the body and found in many fruits and vegetables. These red, orange, and yellow pigments are considered antioxidants.                                                     

Vitamin A- is a fat-soluble vitamin that is naturally present in fruits, vegetables, eggs, dairy products, and fish. It is important for normal vision, the immune system, reproduction, and growth and development. Vitamin A also helps your heart, lungs, and other organs work properly.                                                                                                                                    Vitamin D - laboratory studies show that vitamin D can reduce cancer cell growth, help control infections and reduce inflammation. The best way to get enough vitamin D is by taking a supplement. Vitamin D2 comes from plants and vitamin D3 comes from animals.                                                                                                                                                                      -OMERGA 3Omega-3s are nutrients from food (or supplements) that build and maintain your body. They’re the key to the structure of every cell in your body. Also, an energy source that keeps your heart, lungs, blood vessels, and immune system working. Two extremely important ones -- EPA and DHA -- are primarily found in certain fish such as salmon, tuna, sardines, lake trout, orange roughy etc. ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), another omega-3 fatty acid, is found in plant sources such as nuts and seeds.                                                                                                                                                                                   Vitamin C- found in citrus fruits, strawberries, tomatoes, bell peppers, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, sweet and white potatoes etc. Vitamin C neutralizes free radical molecules in the body, which in excess can damage cells. Vitamin C is also involved in the body’s immune system by stimulating the activity of white blood cells.     https://amzn.to/3Tx4xw3                                                                                                                                                      Probiotic- Probiotics are live microorganisms that are intended to have health benefits when consumed.

The chance of getting prostate cancer goes up as a man gets older. Most prostate cancers are found in men over the age of 65.                                                                Resveratrol is a naturally occurring product derived from grapes and possesses strong anti-cancer properties with few adverse effects.                                                                                                                                                                     Quercetin, a plant pigment is a potent antioxidant flavonoid and more specifically a flavanol, found mostly in onions, grapes, berries, cherries, broccoli, and citrus fruits.                                                                                                                           Curcumin is a polyphenol that's found in turmeric found in plants specifically from the ginger family.                             Genistein - is found in soybeans and soy-based food and formulas, tofu, nuts, and legumes such as peas or lentils, broccoli, cauliflower.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        LUNG CANCER                                                                                             Is the leading cancer killer in both men and women in the U.S Overall, the chance that a man will develop lung cancer in his lifetime is about 1 in 16; for a woman, the risk is about 1 in 17. These numbers include both people who smoke and those who don't smoke. For people who smoke the risk is much higher, while for those who don't, the risk is lower.                Astragalus-(astragalus membranaceus) is a type of flowering plant.

While it is less common than basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), this skin cancer is more dangerous because of its ability to spread to other organs more rapidly if it is not treated at an early stage.                                                                    Vitamin D  The best way to get enough vitamin D is by taking a supplement. Vitamin D2 comes from plants and vitamin D3 comes from animals.                                                                                                                                                                               Turmeric (curcumin) - a polyphenol that's found in turmeric found in plants specifically from the ginger family.                         Vitamin C is found in citrus fruits, strawberries, tomatoes, bell peppers, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, sweet and white potatoes, etc. Vitamin C neutralizes free radical molecules in the body, which, in excess, can damage cells. Vitamin C is also involved in the body’s immune system by stimulating the activity of white blood cells.                                                                                                                               PANCREATIC                                                                                         This cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the tissues of the pancreas. Smoking and health history can affect the risk of pancreatic cancer. Signs and symptoms of pancreatic cancer include jaundice, pain, and weight loss. Pancreatic cancer is difficult to diagnose early.                                                                                                                          Vitamin C is found in citrus fruits, strawberries, tomatoes, bell peppers, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, sweet and white potatoes, etc. Vitamin C neutralizes free radical molecules in the body, which in excess can damage cells.

Burdock Root- is a good source of antioxidants, which are chemical compounds that help protect your cells from damage. As an anti-inflammatory, burdock root may also help reduce your risk of chronic diseases, like diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, and maybe even some cancers.                                                                                                                                                                                                               LIVER & INTRAHEPATIC BILE DUCT                                                             Cancer that starts in the liver is called primary liver cancer. The most common type of primary liver cancer in adults is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It is the fifth most frequent cancer in men and the seventh most frequent in women. This type of liver cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Bile duct cancer, also called cholangiocarcinoma, is cancer that starts in the bile ducts, which are tubes that connect the liver and gallbladder to the small intestine. Cancer that forms in the bile ducts inside the liver is called intrahepatic bile duct cancer. If it forms in the bile ducts outside of the liver, it is called extrahepatic bile duct cancer. Blood tests to monitor for deficiencies in fat-soluble vitamins are often done. As Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) progresses, some people need to replace the fat-soluble vitamins lost in fatty stools.                                                                                                                                                        BCAAs- branched-chain amino acids BCAAs have been shown to have various biological effects, including the promotion of protein synthesis and hepatocyte proliferation, simulation of immune systems, improvement of insulin resistance, inhibition of liver cancer cell proliferation, and neovascularization. All of these findings indicate that BCAAs may benefit the management of patients with chronic liver diseases with/without HCC                                                                                         Vitamins K - is found in animal-based foods, like beef liver and cheese.

The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland located at the base of the neck, just below the Adam's apple. The thyroid produces hormones that regulate heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, and weight. Thyroid cancer might not cause any symptoms at first. But as it grows, it can cause signs and symptoms, such as swelling in your neck, voice changes, and difficulty swallowing.                                                                       SUPPLEMENTS    Here are some of the most essential nutrients for thyroid health:

Selenium- Selenium, a mineral needed for thyroid hormone production, helps protect the thyroid from damage caused by oxidative stress. The thyroid contains high amounts of selenium, and a deficiency can lead to thyroid dysfunction (2Trusted Source).

Iodine- Iodine is critical for thyroid function. Currently, the only known role of iodine is to support thyroid hormone production. Triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) are thyroid hormones that contain iodine. Iodine deficiency causes thyroid disease (3Trusted Source4Trusted Source).

Zinc- The mineral zinc is required for thyroid hormone production. An optimal zinc concentration is needed for healthy levels of T3, T4, and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) (5Trusted Source).                                                               

Iron- The thyroid needs iron to convert T4 into T3, the active form of thyroid hormone. Iron deficiency is associated with thyroid dysfunction.     

Other nutrients, including B vitamins and vitamins A and E, are also needed for optimal thyroid function. Being deficient in one or more nutrients can negatively affect thyroid health.                                                                                                                                                                                                       LEUKEMIA (All Types)                                                                                 Leukemia is a broad term for cancers of the blood cells. The type of leukemia depends on the type of blood cell that becomes cancer and whether it grows quickly or slowly. Leukemia occurs most often in adults older than 55, but it is also the most common cancer in children younger than 15                                                                                                            Garlic                                                                                                                                                                                         Vitamins C & D-                                                                                                                                                                        Burdock Root (Arctium lappa L. root),  is a good source of antioxidants, which are chemical compounds that help protect your cells from damage.
