[MOL] Alternative treatments



Hello you wonderful people,

My sister has been using Korean alternative medicines.  As part of the therapy,
she receives accupuncture, moxbustion, herbal  medicine, and has been on a
macrobiotic diet.  Today, we spoke with someone who said that this is not a
good regimen for someone in my sister's condition (she has been having a
problem with weight loss, and we are trying to supplement the diet with soy
supplements.)  The alternative therapist I just spoke to recommended that she
eat anything and everything she wants for the energy.  Yet, everything I have
read on Cancer survival points us towards low sugar, high alkaline
anti-oxidants, even if the person is in the final stages of the disease.  It
seems to me that her only hope may be to detoxify her system and build up her
immune system, and that diet is key to this.  Can anyone de-mystify this for
me?

Thank you!
Linda (Epstein@Faxon.com)
