While many people are made to believe otherwise, several cancer co-management treatment options are available. These natural therapies are safer than conventional cancer treatments, which are often toxic and cause devastating side effects to the body. On the other hand, integrative co-management cancer therapies are intended to strengthen the body’s natural defenses so that it can more effectively combat disease. The result of these treatments is higher energy levels and renewed wellness to promote recovery. 

Why Choose An Integrative Approach To Cancer Treatment?

Integrative therapies for cancer co-management won’t compromise your quality of life or cause debilitating side effects. Instead, these treatments only strengthen immune function and enhance your body’s natural ability to halt rapid cell division. Integrative cancer co-management options also offer protection against cachexia or wasting syndrome. This is a risk among cancer patients and by preventing it, integrative co-management treatments can provide anti-tumor or anti-metastasis effects. 

Integrative treatments can be used in conjunction with other cancer surgeries or drug treatments to improve patients’ prognosis and quality of life during treatment. 

Nutrition

Malnutrition is an unfortunate side effect commonly brought about by cancer. An appropriate diet and a personalized nutritional supplement program can prevent malnutrition and improve cancer patients’ overall wellbeing. Nutrient-dense vegetables and fruits with lean protein are the key components of a diet for cancer recovery. Supplements such as vitamin D, curcumin, melatonin, modified citrus pectin, and indole 3 carbinol are also beneficial in this diet. 

IV Therapy

IV therapies can support cancer patients’ energy levels while delivering the vitamins, minerals, and amino acids that the body needs to heal. Vitamin C infusions, multivitamin and mineral infusions, glutathione, alpha-lipoic acid, and the cachexia formula can all be delivered intravenously as a safe and effective cancer co-management treatment.
