3 Natural Remedies To Help You Fight Cancer
by Julia Gregory
Receiving a cancer diagnosis can be devastating for many people. The fear associated with this diagnosis often stems from a perceived lack of control over the outcome of the disease. If you are looking for some simple ways that you can help take control over your cancer treatment, using some natural remedies at home could be beneficial.
Here are three remedies you might want to consider implementing into your daily routine to help you fight your cancer more effectively in the future.
1. Drink dandelion tea.
Staying hydrated is important for patients who are undergoing traditional cancer therapies, and you can use your liquid intake as a way to help you fight your cancer diagnosis. Incorporating dandelion tea into your daily drink schedule can be beneficial in helping you control the spread of your disease.
Research conducted by the University of Windsor has shown that dandelion root extract has the ability to rip apart cancer cells while leaving healthy cells intact. Effects were observed in as few as 48 hours during this study. Brewing a cup of dandelion tea will not only help you stay hydrated, but it can help you play a personal role in destroying the cancer cells living within your body.
2. Add lemongrass oil to your water.
Essential oils have become popular among people looking for more holistic ways to battle illness. You can take advantage of the benefits these essential oils provide when trying to take an active role in managing the spread of your cancer at home. Adding a few drops of lemongrass oil to each glass of water that you consume throughout the day provides you with access to the linalool contained within this oil.
Researchers have identified at least 12 different cancer cell lines that can effectively be targeted through the consumption of lemongrass oil, so be sure that you are including this valuable essential oil in your daily water supply.
3. Brew turmeric tea.
Another tea that can be beneficial in helping you fight off cancer is a brew made from turmeric. This substance has been used in Eastern medicine for centuries because of the high levels of curcumin it contains.
Curcumin is an anti-inflammatory with the ability to help cells retain their integrity when threatened by carcinogens or free radicals, and it can also help to block the formation of Topoisomerase—an enzyme known to cause cancer. Adding some thin slices of turmeric to a pot of boiling water will produce a tea that will allow you to help control the growth of your cancer from home.
Rely on dandelion tea. lemongrass essential oil, and turmeric tea to help you take an active role in your cancer treatment in the future.

About Me
The decision to move one of my parents into assisted living was one of the most difficult I have ever made. I had extreme feelings of guilt that led to me being at the facility with my parent practically around the clock. It took a few months before I realized that I could not let my own life fall apart from the guilt I was feeling. I also learned that my parent was fine without me constantly hovering around. Since that time, I have had several friends express similar feelings of guilt. I started this blog to help others in the same situation understand not only their feelings about assisted living, but those of their parents.
