Lung Cancer Prognosis

Survival rates have improved for non-small cell lung cancer because of advances in combination radiation and chemotherapy treatment. With treatment, 14% of patients can have a 5 years survival rate, a high achievement in lung cancer terms. Unfortunately, most patient will die within 12 to 18 months of diagnosis.
Small cell lung carcinoma is treated primarily with chemotherapy and radiation, as surgery has no quantifiable influence on survival. Lung cancer survival rates are higher the earlier the cancer is diagnosed. However, more than two-thirds of lung cancers are diagnosed at a late stage and so survival rates for these patients are lower.
It is no wonder that more and more people are turning to alternative treatments and switching to a cancer friendly diet as their last resort. Alternative treatments are cheap and is within the control of the patient and their family members. A major component of alternative medicine lies in what you eat.
The process start with identifying the foods that can cause or worsen cancer. The idea is to stop eating harmful food before you begin to consume specific anti-cancer food. Be prepared to forgo many types of food that are known and not-so-known to contain cancer-causing fungi. Then, eating cancer-friendly food and cancer-curing food can commence to produce optimal results without obstacles.
