What does the research say about alternative cancer therapies? This reference covers 77 approaches - from metabolic protocols and hyperthermia to repurposed pharmaceuticals under investigation to mind-body practices - presenting published evidence without taking sides.
Each chapter covers the therapy's rationale, available clinical evidence, which cancer types have been studied, safety profile, and an evidence grade reflecting research quality. Historical context explains how each approach developed and where it stands today.
Topics include the Gerson Protocol, ketogenic diet, fasting, hyperbaric oxygen, mistletoe therapy, meditation, and dozens more. The book presents both positive findings and critical limitations for each approach.
Part of the "What the Research Says" series. Includes 77 fully-cited chapters, glossary, cancer type index, and complete bibliography.
