Slowing Cancer & The Cancer Conflict

Slowing Cancer & The Cancer Conflict

Are there any natural cancer cures out there? What the heck is the abscopal effect? Should you pursue it? What is the goal of your treatment? How do you decide between treatment A versus treatment B? Are antioxidants always a good idea? Join us in this jam-packed episode where we discuss details on these topics and much, much more. 

In this episode, Tina & Leah discuss concepts behind some natural agents used in cancer care.
