Homeopathy and Cancer Treatment: A Complementary Approach

Hello, I'm Vishnu, a passionate homeopathy practitioner dedicated to exploring the full potential of holistic health. As the field of complementary and alternative medicine continues to evolve, homeopathy has gained attention for its gentle and individualized approach to healing. Today, I want to shed light on how homeopathy can serve as a supportive option for individuals facing cancer, while also emphasizing the importance of informed decision-making. Homeopathy, based on the principle of "like cures like," involves using highly diluted substances to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. For many, this gentle method offers a sense of empowerment and comfort, particularly in challenging health situations such as cancer. Though homeopathy is not promoted as a stand-alone cancer treatment, it can play a valuable role in supporting patients alongside conventional therapies. Individuals undergoing conventional cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiation often

Cancer-linked mutation accelerates growth of abnormal stroke-causing brain blood vessels

Sandro Da Mesquita, Ph.D. What Researchers have discovered an explanation for why cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs)—clusters of dilated blood vessels in the brain—can suddenly grow to cause seizures or stroke. Specifically, they found that a specific, acquired mutation in a cancer-causing gene (PIK3CA) could exacerbate existing CCMs in the brain. Furthermore, repurposing an already existing anticancer drug showed promise in mouse models of CCMs in improving brain-vascular health and preventing bleeding into the brain tissue. Previous studies linked the initial formation of CCMs to various environmental factors, including differences in the gut micro

The Hallmarks of Cancer from a New Perspective

Health The Hallmarks of Cancer from a New Perspective Hanahan and Weinberg changed the research world with the publication of the Hallmarks of Cancer. These scientists sought to organize the complexity of cancer biology by breaking it down to ten fundamental underlying principles. The research world rejoiced. What if you could take that knowledge a step further? This  Researcher's Guide to the Hallmarks of Cancer  pairs the ten hallmarks of cancer with the related signaling pathways and identifies relevant antibody targets. It’s like the Rosetta Stone for aberrant signaling, so you can understand cancer signaling on a deeper level within the framework of the hallmarks.   Email
