Treatment of Cancer with herbs
Some of POPULAR HERBAL REMEDIES of cancer are:
Essiac - Essiac has been used as an anti-cancer therapy in Canada for at least 70 years. It is a collection of bordock root, sheep sorrel, slippery elm & indian rhubarb.
Analysis of these herbs has found that they contain a variety of compounds, which, in laboratory experiments, have antioxidant activity as well as the ability to block cell growth.
Extract of sapium sebiferum - In this, the milky extract of sapium
sebiferum
is applied externally on cancerous wounds. Initially, it is used alone, but at advanced stages it is used in combination with other herbs (having latex).
Root of tragia involucrata - It is used in the case of intense pain (not used for common pain and long-term use).
Artemisia annua - helps to combat breast cancer.
It's highly toxic to the cancer cells but has a marginal impact on normal breast cells.
Mistletoe - It contains, two groups of toxins: viscotoxins and lectins. The
molecular and pharmacological actions of viscotoxins are closely related
to those of snake venom. They have cytolytic action and they dissolve
cancer cells. The lectins are related to castor-oil plant lectins. The
mistletoe lectins have cytostatic properties, i.e they inhihit the growth
of cancer cells.
Graviola - It is a product obtained from the forests of amazon. It is used to kill different types of cancer cells and hence cure lung, breast, colon, prostate and pancreatic cancers.
Additionally, it actually boosts your immune system making the patient feel healthier and stronger and improves overall energy and outlook on life.
