Boost Immune System to Fight Cancer

Boosting the immune system will increase the effectiveness of a powerful anti-cancer drug used to fight breast cancer, according to Ohio State University scientists writing in the July issue of Journal of Immunology. In laboratory experiments, interleukin-21, which is produced naturally in the body, made the anti-cancer drug Herceptin more effective. Human trials should start in 6 months said cancer specialist Dr. William Carson. (To learn more, click the post title to read the whole article in The Columbus Dispatch.)

Alternative medicine has been stressing the importance of a healthy immune system in fighting cancer for years, says Dr. Burton Goldberg, a noted authority. The human immune system itself, naturally charged with the defense of the body against all foreign, harmful substances, may be enlisted as a therapeutic agent against cancer. Using the principle of vaccines but with nontoxic substances, innovative physicians can provoke stronger than usual immune responses which in turn can help reverse the cancer process.

Burton Goldberg has been advocating such a multimodal approach to fighting cancer for years. Cancer attacks the body on many fronts and must be fought on each front with a variety of conventional and alternative medical treatments working in concert. Dr. Goldberg provides a thorough explanation and specifics of various treatment programs used to boost the immune system on his video Cancer Conquest and in his book An Alternative Medicine Definitive Guide to Cancer. In your fight against cancer, you must give yourself every possible advantage. Visit Dr. Goldberg's website and add his ground-breaking video to your home medical library today.
