Liver is rich in protein, many vitamins and important minerals. Liver contains 21.3 grams of protein per 100 grams, 35% more than lean meat and 30% more than eggs.

Patients with leukemia can also benefit from regular consumption of moderate amounts of animal liver in their daily diet for disease recovery. For those with extreme emaciation and severe anemia, bone broth, turtle plate gum, gum, fish scale gum or taking royal jelly, ginseng pulp king essence, placenta powder, deer antler, etc. can be used.

Foreign medical research proves that eating more vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin C can stop cancer cells from spreading. The intake of large amount of vitamin C can also enhance the local stromal resistance and systemic immune function of the body, thus achieving the purpose of controlling and treating cancer. Foods rich in vitamin C include rape, potherb mustard, tomato, cabbage, leek, capers, hawthorn, mandarin oranges, fresh dates, kiwi, sea buckthorn and lemon, etc. Vitamin A can stimulate the body’s immune system, mobilize the body to fight against cancer and resist the invasion of pathogens into the body.
