In a healthy body, the allergic response serves to protect against invasion by harmful agents. Secretions and inflammation help our immune cells get into the affected tissue, dilute the toxic agent and help wash it away. “Allergies” become a health problem when an excessive and unwanted allergic response occurs to particles that are part of our normal environment and are not actually dangerous to the body.
Researchers at the National Cancer Institute (NCI), one of
the National Institutes of Health, have found promising
evidence that immune cell transplant therapy can help
shrink tumors in patients with metastatic breast cancer.
Similar therapies, which also involve transplantation of
donated immune cells, have produced dramatic anti-tumor
effects in leukemias and lymphomas-cancers of the blood
and lymph, respectively. However, previous studies have

breast cancer.

In many countries throughout the world, people are going to naturopathic physicians when faced with a health issue. Unfortunately, where I live in Vancouver, (British Columbia, Canada) the government is planning to cut back the scope of naturopathic medicine by imposing controls on what a naturopathic physician can and cannot do.
