When used as part of cancer protocols, cancer patients have experience relief from gastrointestinal disorders, fatigue and a lessening of the anxiety associated with diagnosis. In summary, patients have experienced an overall improvement in their quality of life.<\/p>\n<p>This study serves to highlight the growing understanding that a truly comprehensive cancer protocol must include a focus on the whole person, not just the disease that they have.
