Author Description

The Art & Science of Undermining Cancer explains a revolutionary approach to treating cancer with holistic, alternative and integrative therapies that were developed at Oasis of Hope Hospital over the last six decades. When chemotherapy and radiation fail, alternatives are needed. The Oasis of Hope total care approach provides resources to the whole person-body, mind and spirit-with goal of extending life and protecting a patient's quality of life. The basis of the tretment strategy is to treat cancer as a metabolic disease and leverage a tumor's metabolic traits against it. Instead of a direct aggressive attack like chemotherapy, the Oasis of Hope Core and Enhanced therapies use strategies that undermine cancer while strengthening a patient's immune system, and providing emotional and spiritual support.
