Can Advanced Cancer Be Cured?

Question

At 50 years old, my father recently has lost his appetite and looks pale. I’m worried about whether advanced cancer can be cured?

Answer

Currently, there is no complete cure for advanced cancer in clinical practice. Treatment methods such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and targeted drug therapy can only alleviate the condition and try to extend the patient’s life. Patients should consume high-protein, high-calorie, and high-vitamin foods in their daily diet to aid digestion and nutrition, enhance immunity, and reduce the side effects of chemotherapy. Additionally, patients should develop good living habits, maintain regular schedules, quit smoking and drinking, and increase daily exercise to boost immunity. Good habits are helpful in preventing diseases.
