What Is Alternative Cancer Therapy and How Does It Work?
Cancer treatment is continually evolving alongside our understanding of the human body. That allows doctors to apply more targeted, more effective treatments in an attempt to fight the cancer cells.
That shouldn’t necessarily be the only approach you take, though. As your body fights against cancer, it’s important to bolster your own overall well-being as much as possible. That’s where alternative cancer therapy comes in.
If you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, don’t hesitate to visit Dr. Jonathan Singer, Dr. Gina Dattoli, and our team at HealthFirst. Here at our offices in Greenwood Village, Colorado, and Cheyenne, Wyoming, we can tailor alternative cancer therapy to your unique body. Our goal is to strengthen your immune response so your body is better equipped to fight the cancer and withstand any traditional cancer therapies you pursue.
How alternative cancer therapy works
Alternative cancer therapy can take a lot of forms. Here at HealthFirst, Dr. Singer developed the treatments we offer based on more than three decades of research into leading-edge cancer therapy. Our team’s ultimate focus is bolstering your immune system with your alternative cancer therapy.
Dr. Singer formulates a therapeutic treatment that’s tailored to you based on your body’s needs. With this treatment, we aim to give your system the nutrients and medication it needs to function its best.
This nutrient supplementation is particularly important during cancer treatment. The nausea and reduced appetite that come with other cancer therapies make it harder to get adequate nutrients through your food. We provide your therapy through an intravenous (IV) infusion, which means the nutrients go directly into your bloodstream and digestion is bypassed.
Replenishing nutrients in which you might be deficient provides a boost to your overall system and supports your immune health. This makes your body better equipped to fight the cancerous cells and withstand other cancer treatments.
Alternative cancer therapy can also help you defend against infection and heal faster. You might notice fewer side effects from chemotherapy and radiation as well as a faster recovery afterward.
What your alternative cancer therapy might include
Dr. Singer formulates your alternative cancer therapy infusion based on what your body needs. It might include:
- Zinc
- Vitamin C
- Artesunate
- Curcumin
- Alpha-lipoic acid
- Poly-MVAⓇ
- Multivitamin and multimineral formulas
High-dose intravenous vitamin C, for example, has helped cancer patients. Poly-MVA is the brand name for a blend of alpha-lipoic acid, minerals, vitamins, and amino acids that helps to protect noncancerous cells while encouraging cell death in tumors. In short, Dr. Singer has a variety of treatments he can incorporate into your therapy.
By introducing tools your body can use to bolster your immune response and boost your overall health, alternative cancer therapy can provide a valuable addition to your treatment regimen.
