Breast cancer rocked my world in 2017. Healing from it made me want to share what I’d learned. In the UK the 1939 Cancer Act forbids any ‘cures’ being promoted other than chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery, same with the Standard of Care in the US, but… there are certainly many other steps you can take to help make your body inhospitable to those rapidly reproducing cells.
