ZERO
TOXICITY
CHEMOTHERAPY:
THE
MYSTERY OF CANCER
TREATMENT BY CHINESE
TRADITIONAL MEDICINE
The Chief
Editor
interviewed
in Shanghai Prof
He
YuMin,
a
renowned TCM Oncology
Spe-
cialist and
Editor
of Modern TCM
Oncology:
an
university faculty
text for
the
1Oth
S-year Plan
of
the
Ministry of
Education.
Prof He
criticized Western chemotherapy
to
be
a "singleton" modality, con-
centrating
merely on
cancer
cell
kill. ln contrast, TCM has
a
"mul-
tiplex" approach that takes
care
of the whole
body and
avoids
adverse effects yet achieves
ef-
fectiveness as has been
shown
in clinical trials. Zero
Chemo-
therapy has
3
primary principles:
first, the cancer cells
have
to
be
killed effectively, e.9.,
arsenic
kills
leukemia cells; second, tumor
cell
growth
is
suppressed;
third,
macrophages are enhanced to
engulf cancer cells effectively.
ln
fact,
many TCM
do
enhance
macrophageS, e.9.,
purple
lingzhi
has
an
enzymatic
acid that
is
similartoTaxol,
as
extracted
from
the yew
tree:
an ideal
chemo-
therapy agent discovered
for
decades. For
chemotherapy,
there
is a
definite
role
of
TCM
and
a
lot more
work
has
to
be done.
