Very many pet owners come to me seeking input into their decision whether to enter into or continue with a program of radiotherapy as part of their dogs cancer treatment.

My first advice, whatever the cancer or the circumstances, is to immediately start on a course of a powerful antioxidant-Maritime Pine Bark Antioxidant and there is no possible reason for not doing so. A collapse of aspects of the immunity is the fundamental cause of all cancers and it is important to reverse this as soon as possible to offer the best chance of healing.

The place for radiotherapy is to directly attack the rapidly growing cancer cells using beams of radiation. Radiation as we know damages tissue and the hope of radiotherapy is that it will damage fast growing cancer cells more quickly than normal cells.

There are some cancers which are ideally suited to Radio therapy given in a careful finite program. The general herbal support formulation which I make up to assist the body to deal with the tissue damage and side effects of Radiotherapy includes the herbs; St Mary's Thistle, Kelp, Yarrow, Thuja, Comfrey, Fennel and Sage. I also include the Bach Flowers; Olive, Scleranthus, Gorse and Wild Oat. I recommend you use my Maritime Super Antioxidant in conjunction with this cancer support mix to help to boost your dogs immunity and aid in the support of the cancers and radiotherapy.

While the radiation works to destroy the cancer cells and in some cases also destroy perfectly healthy cells the herbs assist your pets body to recover from this damage.
