When hearing the word cancer, one can imagine it as a monstrous thing. This disease has several stadiums. The healing depends on the respective stadiums. WHO (World Health Organisation) stated that from all the cancer cases, one third of them could have been prevented, one third could have been healed, and the rest one third could have been relieved from pain. Many patients were late in medication because they did not know the signs or preliminary symptoms of cancer. When it was too late, patients did not want to follow the standard procedures of medication saying that the cost was very expensive. There were also patients who were afraid of operation. Finally, they took alternative medications where one of them was through traditional herbs. Mother earth has abundant medicinal herbs. There are merit plants that clean heat and toxins excreted by cancer cells, expedite blood circulation, and clean clogged sputum.
The knowledge about these plants and their uses can be found in this book. In addition, you can also recognise the symptoms of and types of cancers in this book which is written by a doctor who is an expert in traditional medicine.
