Alternative Cancer Treatments and Protocols

There are many definitions to alternative cancer treatments, but let's just define them, for the sake of logical orientation, as non-traditional treatments for cancer. Richard Walters has organized them this way in his book Options: The Alternative Cancer Therapy Book. It's a good place to start. We spend a good deal of our time evaluating the most promising components of many of the following historical programs, as well as talking with consultants possessing years of experience. Alternative cancer treatments include, but are not limited to the following (Please note: No endorsement by Alternative Cancer Treatments is implied by being listed here):

Biological and Pharmcologic Therapies

Antineoplastons

Gaston Naessens Therapy (714X)

Revici Therapy

Hydrazine Sulfate

Immune Therapies

Immuno-Augmentative Therapy (IAT)

Issels whole-body immune therapy

Herbal Therapies

Harry Hoxsey formulas

Essiac tea

Mistletoe (Iscador)...as used by Suzanne Somers

Pau D'Arco

Nutritional Therapies

Wheatgrass Therapy

Macrobiotics

Adjunctive Therapies

Oxygen Therapies (including Ozone)

Hyperthermia

DMSO therapy

The most successful practitioners seem to be those who integrate various components of the alternative cancer treatments listed above, without painting themselves into a corner by being committed to a particular model.
