First off, it's important to define what alternative breast cancer treatments are as compared to complimentary treatments, because man... is there a lot of confusion out there!
Complimentary treatments is something you do in addition to conventional treatments. They may help people cope with the disease, its treatment or side effects, rather than treat the disease itself. An example of a complementary therapy is using meditation to help with stress or anxiety during radiation therapy. Massages, therapeutic touch aromatherapy, are other examples. Alternative therapies are used instead of conventional treatments altogether. An example of an alternative therapy is using a special diet to treat cancer instead of undergoing chemotherapy or another conventional treatment.
There are many examples of alternative therapies, such as: traditional Chinese medicines. acupuncture, acupressure, herbal remedies, and special nutritional or diet therapies. Special nutritional or diet therapies being the most popular and with proven results.
Consider the countless number of doctors who have turned to alternative cancer treatments, in treating their own cancers. There are many to be found online.
Your body is designed to heal itself. For example... if you cut your hand - it will heal automatically, unless you deliberately put dirt in it, or you keep picking it open, or if your immune system is severely suppressed by the way you have been eating and living resulting in some very serious illness that causes delayed healing. If you smash your thumb with a hammer, it will eventually heal, unless you keep smashing the same thumb with a hammer - EVERY DAY!
The point is that your body WILL heal itself UNLESS you keep injuring it.
But most people don't realize that they are "injuring" their body every day by the way they are living and eating. When we eat wrong and live wrong, these small daily "injuries" will result in a disease of one type or another. Unfortunately, doctors ONLY learn how to treat the symptoms of disease rather than addressing the root cause of the disease itself. Why? Because they are never taught the causes of diseases.
Doctors give drugs - ALL of which have side effects - and ALL of which harm the body! And drugs only cover up the symptoms.
The ONLY way to really get well and remain well, is to STOP doing the things that cause disease and START doing the things that rebuild the immune system, the ONLY system in your body that can GET you well and KEEP you well! And this naturally boils down to giving our bodies the healthy foods it needs to keep our immune system doubly strong. This is what we mean by alternative breast cancer treatments.
Oh granted... many doctors will tell you that's a lot of crap. Really... then how do you disprove what others have already done including real doctors.
Let's face it, medicine is BIG BUSINESS - a multi-billion dollar business. But getting well by Natural Methods is NOT expensive - and does NOT require a doctor. It can be done at home - WITHOUT drugs! And it REALLY does get you WELL by addressing the root cause of the disease rather than covering up the symptoms. Drugs allow you to feel better, at least temporarily, but your disease is actually getting worse! Drugs don't heal your disease!
The prospect of getting well inexpensively by Natural Methods does not sit well with the Medical and Pharmaceutical Industries. Their goal, instead, is for you to feel helpless and hopeless when you are sick, so you will have to rely on expensive doctors and costly, harmful drugs!
But you don't have to GET sick or REMAIN sick! Diseases including cancer are curable once you STOP doing the things that CAUSE them. Alternative breast cancer treatments are for real and the way to go!
