Naturopathic Cancer Options |
||||
Our Naturopaths see cancer patients at every stage of care: before surgery, during chemotherapy and radiation and after standard treatments have ended. Our clinic heavily emphasizes the Metabolic Approach to Cancer treatment where we make use of substances that can modify a cancer's preferred energy production pathways. We use supplements and dietary changes to bypass aerobic glycolysis (the Warburg effect) and emphasize standard mitochondrial respiration and Krebs cycle activity. As mentioned, our Naturopaths also utilize oxidative alternative cancer treatment options. Our main oxidative cancer treatment is Vitamin C that generates hydrogen peroxide (when given in high doses) and other reactive oxygen species that can damage cancer cells because of an inherent inability to metabolize these species. Vitamin C pairs nicely with Artemesinin and is spaced away from other anti-oxidant treatments as anti-oxidants can negate the oxidative effects generated from high dose Vitamin C. Vitamin C is a common recommendation for many cancers. In breast cancer, a 2011 study reported that Vitamin C administration resulted in a significant reduction of complaints caused by the cancer and chemo or radiotherapy, in particular - nausea, loss of appetite, fatigue, depression, sleep disorders, dizziness and bleeding tendency. |

Your initial Naturopathic Cancer consultation at our Edmonton clinic will be up to 60 minutes and is usually with Dr. Muradov. You'll discuss your past medical history, previous scan and labs and treatments. At the end of your first visit Dr. Muradov will give you your starting natural cancer treatment protocol. Protocols and recommendations are researched not to interact with standard treatments. For patients undergoing standard treatments our recommendations often reduce side effects and can improve efficacy of many common chemotherapies. For patients that choose not to pursue standard treatments or that have finished their cancer treatments our Naturopaths have many preventative and life prolonging treatments available - both oral and IV.
