Pancreatic Cancer Treatment Options
Cancer Care Patients seek alternative Pancreatic cancer treatment at every stage of their cancer journey. Some at the beginning of a Pancreatic cancer diagnosis, during treatment or when all conventional treatments have been exhausted. For almost two decades, Sunridge Medical has treated patients with all types and stages of Pancreatic cancer including Stage 4 Pancreatic cancer and metastatic Pancreatic cancer.
This devastating cancer diagnosis quickly becomes rather clinical when treatment options are offered including conventional and alternative Pancreatic Cancer treatments. Since pancreatic cancer is often not discovered until it is in Stage 4, no one Pancreatic Cancer treatment plan is the same.
According to the National Cancer Institute, about 64,000 men and women worldwide are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer every year. Pancreatic cancer is the 2nd most common type of cancer and is the 4th leading cause of deaths in cancer patients. Even with advanced medicine, the same number of people will die from this disease as the number of people being newly diagnosed. This is reason enough to start considering alternative pancreatic cancer treatment.
Revolutionizing Alternative Pancreatic Cancer Treatment
At Sunridge Medical, our highly-trained physicians are experts in providing an integrated approach to the alternative treatment of pancreatic cancer. Our treatment plans are individualized, even for patients with the same type of cancer, and involve both traditional and alternative medicines. We have integrated advanced, research-based alternative medicines with conventional therapies into a comprehensive, individualized Pancreatic cancer treatment program that offers patients options for their treatment.
Our physicians have found that symptoms can frequently be improved and even reversed with our natural alternative pancreatic cancer treatments. We take a holistic approach to patient care and strive to not only treat the cancer, but also alleviate symptoms, increase quality of life and most importantly, and address the underlying cause of the disease.
Even if standard treatments have reached their limits, patients with pancreatic cancer still have treatment options.
Learn About The Sunridge Approach to Pancreatic Cancer Treatment
The Sunridge approach to Pancreatic Cancer treatment is to study the whole body, investigate the underlying cause of the cancer, understand the diagnosis and how cancer manifested, establish the overall wellness of the patient and their ability to respond to treatments; then based on these findings deliver the best treatments to stop the cancer and stave off additional disease.
Our combination of therapies of conventional and alternative Pancreatic Cancer treatments provides patients with the most successful approach to treatment. Our cancer plan aims at attacking the cancer, and restoring the body’s natural defenses and regulatory mechanisms, including the immune system and detoxification pathways. More importantly our strategy includes balancing hormones, cleaning up the gut and maintaining wellness to prevent cancer reoccurrence by building back what was missing in the body when illness was first detected.
Pancreatic Cancer Treatment – A Second Opinion
We are ok being second, if we are the second opinion after a Pancreatic Cancer diagnosis. Alternative Pancreatic cancer treatment is often a second choice for some when all other cancer treatments have failed. It is true that Sunridge can help even if all other conventional treatments have failed and we are a last resort, but when Sunridge Medical is the second opinion at the beginning of a healing journey, we have an impressive impact on the cancer outcome.
We look at cancer differently than the traditional oncologist who sees cancer as treating it traditionally with surgery, chemo, and radiation. Although sometimes that traditional treatment can be effective for an abbreviated time, it does not always eradicate cancer and stop its reappearance.
Naturopathic Oncology and Integrative Oncology
Patients receive care by more than just our doctors; Sunridge has an integrated cancer care team with access to an arsenal of treatments that gives us confidence to treat all stages and forms of Pancreatic cancer.
Naturopathic oncology is a holistic process that looks at the entire system of a patient and aims to discover the cancer source. Integrative oncology is a newer trend in cancer care that looks at the most effective treatments alternative cancer care and conventional care offer and uses the best from each discipline. There is a strong focus placed on the ability of alternative cancer care to build up the body than that conventional treatment which very often leaves permanent damage.
Understanding Pancreatic Cancer
The Cancer Cell in Pancreatic Cancer
A Weakened Immune System and Cell Production
Circulating Tumor Cells
Often early in a diagnosis we find Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) which are morphed cells that have sloughed off a tumor as they lost their stickiness and are flowing throughout a cancer patient’s bloodstream. This shedding is part of the tumor metastasis and is used a factor in a “liquid biopsy” providing insight into the cancer staging and progression rate.

The Effects of Chemotherapy vs. Natural Chemicals in Pancreatic Cancer Treatment
Chemotherapy is like pouring weed killer on a garden. The flowers get as damaged and die right along with the weeds, but then even more resistant weeds find their way to the surface. Chemotherapy attacks every cell in the body. Hair cells stop their ability to hold onto the hair follicle in many chemo treatments because the chemo has attacked a healthy cell. Neuropathy is induced because the chemo attacks healthy nerve cells. Organs such the heart and kidneys can be permanently damaged because chemotherapy indiscriminately attacks healthy cells and cancer cells.
