i think the "cure" is prevention and i have a lot of ideas about that.
Otherwise, depending on the type of cancer, there are some very good drugs available to improve survival.

Let's see. 52 years ago I had an "incurable" rhabdomyosarcoma. 3 years ago I had a very aggressive breast cancer, and obviously, I'm still around. 14 years ago my son had a lymphoma, but he died 2 years ago from heart disease--cancer free, by the way.
There are treatments for many kinds of cancers that leave people without cancer, and without recurrence. I'd call that a cure. There is no treatment that cures all people of all cancers, though. Since there are more than 200 diseases called cancer, that'll be a while.

Yes, there are lots of people who have been cured of Cancer. I know a couple cured of breast cancer, and I know a man cured of prostrate cancer....so, yes, there are mounds of cancer survivors out there. Haven't you seen the pink ribbons? : )

There is no medicinal cure but if detected early enough surgery can remove the affected area ,followed by chemo or ray you may get lucky. If thier are secondaries ray or chemo can slow the tumors growth or put it in remission, outside of that no.

Go on a high alkaline diet.
Cancers cells live in an acid condition.
Go into Google Search for the right
foods to eat to reduce acid and raise
alkalinity.
