I'm not a health professional, so take this as you will.
If i were diagnosed with any type of cancer, I would load up on substances which have been shown in vitro, or in animal trials to have immune boosting and anti-cancer effects.
Resveratrol, Fucoidan, Turmeric/Curcumin, Quercetin all come to mind. There are many studies on these substances and their immune boosting and anti-cancer effects available on PubMed. There are lots of great books on them available on amazon as well, which more or less summarize the research in a readable and understandable way.

The essential mineral Selenium is absolutely critical for a good immune system, I'd look to supplement that heavily (up to 1mg / day) from a formulation that had good bioavailability/absorbability. N-Acetyl-Cysteine is also excellent for your immune system, specifically helping you create more Glutothione. Supplementing with Glutothione sublingually itself would also probably be wise. Alpha-Lipoic Acid is great for the immune system as well.
It would also be prudent, IMO, to get on a ketogenic diet ASAP, and stay away from well-done red meat (acrylamides), fried food of any kind, and nitrates (preservatives in meat, usually deli-meat).
In addition to providing the body with the raw materials it needs and removing things from the diet that cause inflammation/irritation/toxicity to the body, a positive mental attitude and the reduction of chronic stress is also important. Try to structure the day for 30 minutes of exercise/intense activity, and 23.5 hours of rest, concentrating on lowering stress levels during that 23.5 hours (deep breathing especially, but also massage, spa, meditation, comedy clubs, funny movies, laughter with friends, or whatever works for that person to release stress and establish a positive mental attitude).
Def look into H pylori as a potential cause. Other than that:
Good luck!
Qi, depending on which Asian culture your are talking about, is essentially your vital life force energy, it is created in a person once the parents form a zygote and it is ever flowing throughout your meridians. One book gives a pretty good introductory on Asian medicine is "The Web Without a Weaver" http://www.amazon.com/The-Web-That-Weaver-Understanding/dp/0809228408/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1396175519&sr=8-1& keywords=the+web+with+no+weaver
I've had great success with them! This is the brand I take: http://www.amazon.com/Solgar-L-Lysine-Tablets-1000-Count/dp/B00020IA1Y/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1416425875&sr=8-3&keywords=l+lysine+solgar
My first experience with naturopathy was when my daughter had an ear infection and we were fed up with the normal Doc. I took her to an ND (Naturopathic Doctor) and she gave us garlic-mullein oil to put in my daughters ears. She went from not wanting to do anything at all, to up and playing in just a few hours. I took her back to the ND the two days later. The doctor scoped her ears again and she was 100% better. Since then I invested in The Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine and have used it for many common illnesses.
Next, I've had seasonal allergies really bad for years. To the point where I would wake up sneezing over and over again until I could take claritin and wait for the effects. Knowing how well my daughter's naturopathic cure worked, I decided to try that approach. I did some research and I found Stinging Nettle capsules and QBC plex. They seriously changed my life. I would take the QBC plex everyday during allergy season and the Stinging Nettle anytime I really had it bad. Eventually I didn't have to take either and I could go outside without sneezing and all the fun that comes with allergies.
Finally, I've also struggled with dandruff for much of my life. I searched high and low to find a natural cure and I eventually found Jason's Dandruff Shampoo . It works wonders and I noticed huge improvements after only a couple uses.
Overall, I'm so glad I lived in a place that was able to open my eyes to naturopathy specifically. It has enabled me to be more self-reliant and more skeptical of pharmaceuticals.
P.S. I would love to see this thread used more as well. Thank You.
We use these. Highly recommend them if you drink Reverse Osmosis or distilled water.
I think some of the confusion is the idea of a gluten sensitivity vs. a gluten intolerance (i.e. Celiac disease.) If you are interested in food sensitivities, for our allergies course we used the book Allergies: Diseases in Disguise by Carolee Bateson-Koch at my college. It has some good information that's generally pretty easy to read, though it does suffer from some editing problems.
I have purchased this herbal supplement from Whole Foods. It comes with two types of tablets. The smaller tablets in the foil packet are passionflower.
Forget about the chain pet food companies, try to find small organic brands and supplement with this book:
