| Herbal Formulas for Cancer Treatment |
| The longer I work with cancer patients, the more likely I am to create a custom formula for each individual I see. I use my knowledge of herbs, my observations of each individual, plus prayer and intuition to select the herbal remedy or remedies appropriate for each person I treat. Nevertheless, I occasionally use general formulas in my practice, and many of them have proven to be useful, even curative, for cancer. I have included some of these formulas on the following pages. |
| Hoxsey (Trifolium) Formula (with a few changes and modifications) |
| The Hoxsey Formula is a classic alterative compound best prepared by an herbalist that has been used for over one hundred years. Its primary action is to increase the body's ability to remove metabolic waste, which leads to overall enhancement in the assimilation of nutrients. In my own version of this formula, I have added celandine (Cheladonium) because of its anticancer and liver-protective effects. For more information about each herb, consult the Index to locate the herb's description in this chapter. |
