| Many people are now getting their information about cancer treatment through the Internet. While this can be helpful, one problem with Internet information is the lack of regulation. One needs to be very cautious about the source of information as well as its validity. |
| Another problem is that the medical establishment insists that the truth about herbal and nutritional medicine can be learned only through double-blind studies. I feel that most doctors and researchers are confused about nutrition and ill-equipped to explain the workings of herbs. Because science isolates and looks at just one element of a food or an herb independent of its other components in order to analyze its benefits, we may wind up with studies that tell us how bad it is for us only to have the information reversed at a later time when other components of the same food or herb are studied. Nature has spirit, a vital force that imbues foods and herbs as well as each one of us; in addition, nature has an intelligence and inherent wisdom that science has apparently lost. In healing with herbs, one treats people, not their disease. |
| Today, because modern medicine is failing to fully heal those with serious ailments, many people are turning to natural and traditional healing methods. Throughout this book, I will share with you my knowledge, wisdom, and experience in the use of herbs, nutrition, diet, health education, and counseling for the prevention and treatment of cancer. I deeply believe in the value of a life lived simply and fully in harmony with nature, nourished with the bounty that God has provided. My prayer is that this book be a blessing and a true healing guide for all who read it. |
