 Brilliantly helpful herbalist November 13, 2000

This author has rave reviews from cancer patients in my area. I have gone through breast cancer treatments with this author's help, one year after my mother died of breast cancer (most breast cancer is environmentally caused ). I am doing very well. I also learned of a man with prostrate cancer who was cured with Donald Yance's help; he wrote his story in the local newspaper. In my opinion he is brilliant and a very loving human being who had so many cancer patients that he wrote a book to make his infomation available to others. I am so very grateful for his help and recomend this book as a first choice resource.

Yance and Valentine have done a comprehensive job of cataloging the herbal treatment options for people to choose from for their fight against cancer. I did a little reasearch of my own to discover which of these herbs were being sold on-line and what was being said about them. The site, iHerb, not only coroborrated thier research information, but also sold a variety of good products. For those seeking alternatives or companions to their cancer treatments, this book and iHerb would be two great places to begin.

Donald Yance is unquestionably the contemporary North American herbalist-nutritionist with the most hands-on experience treating cancer. He has practiced for some twenty years in Connecticut, and recently in southern Oregon. We are lucky that he took time from his busy practice to write this book. The book doesn't give pat protocols for treating cancer, but, like the writings of Eli Jones, the physician-herbalist who wrote the first major work on the treatment of cancer in American Medical history a hundred years ago, Herbal Medicine, Healing, and Cancer offers a mixture of overall healing strategies with extensive herbal and nutritional materia medica.
I'm impressed! January 31, 2004

The HMH&C book is well written and formated. It has excellent information on natural healing prevention and treatment combined with traditional cancer treatments. It is a gold mine of information and documentation. Great herbal information and how they affect cancer. It was highly recommeded by my herbalist/pharmacist. I'm sending it to a friend in need.

I was diagnosed with Stage four Lung Cancer last month and am undergoing conventional chemotherapy and radiation. I am an herbalist and acupuncturist so I immediately began my search for a reference and a colleague to assist me when the western approaches had done what they could do. I found Herbal Medicine, Healing and Cancer to be a first class resource. Comments that it was not suitable for the lay person, of course did not affect me, although my wife and three lay friends found it very readable. I am half way through conventional treatment and will be contacting either Mr. Yance or one of his colleagues for assistance in planning the second phase of my return to health.
