This book, authored by experts in both conventional and integrative medicine, emphasizes a holistic approach to cancer treatment. It provides practical guidance on incorporating scientifically-backed therapies like botanicals, supplements, mind-body practices, lifestyle changes, nutrition, and exercise into standard cancer care, all while prioritizing patient safety, prevention, and overall wellness.
