Summary:
"A traditionally educated oncologist presents a cutting-edge, whole-person approach to cancer's treatment and causes. Cancer as a Wake-Up Call is an easy-to-read guide to an integrative approach to preventing and treating cancer. Conventional medicine focuses on attacking cancer cells, but doesn't address why a person gets sick. But cancer is a systemic disease manifesting a global condition locally. In this well-researched volume, oncologist Mariacute; a Laura Nasi, MD offers holistic approaches to cancer. Rather than trying to disprove traditional methods of dealing with cancer, she demonstrates the limitations of seeing and treating cancer merely as an invader that must be eradicated; why do some people's bodies metabolize mutations without forming cancer while someone else exposed to the same carcinogens develops cancer? Why do some people see cancer return after it's eradicated while others see no remission? Nasi invites the reader to look at cancer from a whole-person perspective that takes into account experiences, environment, and the full picture"-- Provided by publisher.
