It’s not everyday you meet a seasoned herbalist with over 35 years of clinical experience. And it’s even rarer to meet one who is an expert in holistic oncology.
Drawing on her decades of experience supporting people with cancer, medical herbalist Chanchal Cabrera has distilled her learnings into an accessible book for both everyday people and practitioners, Holistic Cancer Care: An Herbal Approach to Preventing Cancer, Helping Patients Thrive during Treatment, and Minimizing the Risk of Recurrence.
In this conversation, we delve into the realms of prevention and cancer support during treatment, gaining invaluable insights along the way. While chatting with Chanchal we learned…
- What exactly “holistic cancer care” means
- How to approach herb drug interactions
- Key lifestyle recommendations for cancer prevention and during treatment
- Herbs that can help address stress during treatment
- Chanchal’s #1 herb for cancer prevention & more!
Whether you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, are seeking preventative info, or are a caretaker, I hope this interview with Chanchal can offer some support on your journey.
You can learn more about Chanchal Cabrera’s work and find her book, Holistic Cancer Care, on chanchalcabrera.com.
Plus, you can learn more from Chanchal at the Shift Network.
If you are a practitioner or advanced student of herbal medicine, you can also join Chanchal in person for a five day clinical case studies intensive, which she is co-facilitating with David Winston at her home and teaching gardens on Vancouver Island.
