The number of Americans dying of cancer is declining.

According to the American Cancer Society and as reported by NPR, cancer death rates in the U.S. took their sharpest drop on record — 2.2% — between 2016 and 2017. The death rates have been gradually falling for about three decades, but only about 1.5% a year.
A steady decline in smoking rates and a sharp drop in lung cancer deaths, due to new and more effective cancer treatments, is thought to be responsible, in part, for driving cancer death rates down.
Deaths from lung cancer outpace those from cancers of the breast, pancreas and prostate combined. While smoking contributes to the majority of all lung cancer deaths, even if you are a nonsmoker, you still may be at risk for lung cancer.
New and better treatments for all kinds of cancers, including lung, are constantly being studied.
A Swiss study involving lab mice suggests the grape constituent resveratrol may be effective in treating lung cancer, at least when administered nasally in high doses. The researchers observed a 45% decrease in tumor load in mice treated with resveratrol, noting they developed fewer and smaller tumors than untreated mice.
Given its ability to neutralize free radicals, resveratrol is well-known for its antiaging, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant and neuroprotective properties.
While conventional medicine has little to offer outside the standard “cut, poison, burn” approach, new evidence suggests nutritional ketosis could both treat and prevent most cancers.
Hope4Cancer offers a comprehensive, customized approach to cancer treatment, focused around seven key principles: nontoxic cancer therapies, immunomodulation, nutrition, detoxification, oxygenation, gut microbiome restoration and the spiritual and emotional aspects of healing.
Nontoxic cancer therapies include pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, antimicrobials, anti-inflammatories, anti-angiogenic therapies such as hyperthermia and near-infrared light therapy, and biological intravenous therapies such as vitamin C and laetrile.
Ninety-two percent of Hope4Cancer’s patients arrive with Stage 4 cancer or have severely metastasized cancers and a third-party review shows Hope4Cancer has a 76% two-year survival rate and a five-year survival rate in the 70% range.
Many holistic cancer treatment plans include nutritional ketosis, intermittent fasting and vitamin D optimization. They may also offer hyperbaric oxygen, cryotherapy, exercise and detoxification, in addition to having you avoid toxic exposures of all kinds.
If you are faced with a cancer diagnosis, consider finding a qualified holistic cancer treatment expert or center that can help guide you through the options. In order for holistic cancer treatment to work, it needs to be done first. Once you’ve done chemo or extensive radiation, your chances of remission through alternative methods are slim, as the damage done is too great.
When speaking to someone who is suffering, don’t try to relate to their suffering by comparing it to something you’ve experienced, don’t offer solutions and treatment strategies unless asked, and don’t tell them their suffering has some greater purpose. Instead, make yourself available, be present with them and let them express how they feel about their diagnosis.
