Is it true that if cancer wont kill u , chemotherapy will eventually. is it that bad for the body? i believe in natural cures but fda wont approve it

Absolutely not: Chemotherapy can have severe short and long-term sides effects and complications but rarely kills patients as untreated cancers do. Many tumors are very responsive to chemotherapy and the side effects are worth the benefits.
