Important cancer care safety information

Ayurveda has not been established as a cure for cancer. It should never replace or delay treatment recommended by a qualified oncologist. Discuss every herbal product, supplement or therapy with your oncology team before use.

UNDERSTANDING THE CONTEXT

Understanding cancer from an Ayurvedic perspective

Ayurveda considers health in relation to the body, daily habits, nutrition and overall wellbeing. For people with cancer, any complementary Ayurvedic approach must take into account the diagnosis, treatment stage, current medicines, nutritional needs and advice from the oncology team.

Not every Ayurvedic therapy or herbal product is appropriate for every patient. Some products can interact with chemotherapy, radiation therapy, targeted treatments or other medicines. Professional assessment is essential before beginning complementary care.

Questions about Cancer Care by Ayurveda

There is insufficient reliable clinical evidence to establish Ayurveda as a cure for cancer. Do not postpone or replace oncology care with Ayurvedic treatment.

Some Ayurvedic products may interact with cancer medicines or affect treatment safety. Discuss every herbal product, supplement and traditional therapy with your oncologist before use.

You may contact the clinic to ask about available Ayurvedic consultation services. Suitability depends on your circumstances and should be considered alongside advice from your oncology team.

Panchakarma procedures are not suitable for everyone. Cancer, treatment-related side effects, nutritional status and other medical conditions may affect safety. Any proposed procedure needs careful assessment and approval from relevant treating clinicians.
