Remedies for someone undergoing chemotherapy

Remedies for someone undergoing chemotherapy: the advice of Professor Akim Bouterra, complemented by what research says (cancer), the precautions to know, and our resources for going further.

As is well known, changing one's lifestyle and diet is an essential part of anti-cancer treatment.

Since cancer is a general illness of the body, the body must be helped to respond and given the best resources to help it fight the disease.

There is a natural enzyme called bromelain, derived from the core of the pineapple, which is capable of breaking down proteins and may be able to erode cancerous tumors by making them visible to the immune system. Today it can be found in tablet form, such as extranase.

Bromelain can also be found in drink form. Melon extract, extramel, which appears to be even more effective than bromelain, is also sold under the name vitassin.

This extract will help erase the effects of chemotherapy. Coenzyme Q10 and selenium can be added to this extract. In addition, a patient undergoing chemotherapy can drink a phytoprobiotic beverage that will help them cope with the effects of chemotherapy, such as nausea, for example.

Products of the hive can also help, such as honey with black seed (Nigella sativa), and propolis, which can be taken at a dose of one tablespoon in the morning and one in the evening before bed.

What published research says about the remedies mentioned above, for informational purposes—these studies address material causes, while healing belongs to Allah.

Cancer: supporting without replacing

Diet plays a role in preventing several cancers according to an "umbrella" review of meta-analyses (Nat Commun, 2021); curcumin, black seed, and medicinal mushrooms are being studied as complements to treatment (Int J Mol Sci, 2024) (Molecules, 2023), and the Mediterranean diet supports patients. Precaution: no natural remedy replaces cancer treatment; certain plants and high-dose antioxidants may interfere with chemotherapy—any course should be decided together with the oncologist. The Sagesse au Naturel practice offers complementary cancer follow-up.
