Could you suggest good herbal recipes that could help cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: A few botanicals such as the taxols (paclitaxel) and vinca alkaloids have made it into mainstream cancer rx. So far, the only evidence that any "herbals" you can buy touch any cancer come from junk cell culture or animal experiments with toxic levels of the stuff -- folks who peddle this stuff aren't obligated to tell the truth by the same laws that bind physicians. Some herbals may make folks comfortable.
