I just read: Anti- tumor activities and mechanisms of TCM formulas: A Review.
There are over 20 Chinese formulas that have been treating tumors, cysts and a wide variety of masses in different skin or organ locations for thousands of years. The mechanisms of TCM formulas for preventing or treating cancer: TCM formulas can regulate the signal pathways related to cancer and suppress the proliferation of cancer cells through various mechanisms such as apoptosis, autophagy, and induction of cell cycle arrest and so on.
TCM formulas are also involved in the following way:
1) Inhibition of tumor cell invasion and metastasis
2) Reversing drug resistance.
3) Increasing the efficacy of chemotherapy
4) alleviating the side effects of chemotherapy drugs.
5) regulating immune function
6) improving the prognosis and prolong the survival of patients.
7) Inhibiting the growth of cancer stem cells.
I will list some granulized formulas that are available in Australia and state what location it targets.

I wrote this for those who are refusing conventional treatment because they have been through it before and refuse to do it again, or they are choosing a natural solution but don’t know where to start, or they want formulas to offset the uncomfortable side effects of allopathic cancer treatments. By law it must be said that these formulas are not a radical cure! If you want a copy of this review, just email me.
