Hi everyone,

I wanted to share some insights on the potential role of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in supporting cancer care. While TCM is not a substitute for conventional treatments like chemotherapy or radiation, it can be a valuable complementary therapy.

How TCM Approaches Cancer:
TCM looks at the body holistically, aiming to balance the flow of Qi (vital energy) and address both the root cause and symptoms of disease. In the context of cancer, practitioners often use a combination of acupuncture, herbal medicine, and dietary adjustments to:

Boost the immune system
Support digestion and energy levels, which can be impacted by cancer treatments
Alleviate pain and other side effects of conventional therapies
Help restore emotional balance and reduce stress
Notable TCM Herbs for Cancer Support:
Astragalus (Huang Qi): Believed to strengthen the immune system and protect healthy cells.
Ginseng: Often used to boost vitality and combat fatigue.
Scutellaria (Huang Qin): Has potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
While more research is needed to fully understand TCM's role in cancer care, many people find it helpful in managing symptoms and improving quality of life during treatment. If you're curious to learn more about how TCM could complement conventional cancer treatments, I will write more on this topic on my blog very soon, where I dive deeper into specific herbs, acupuncture techniques, and other supportive therapies.
