The effect of traditional Chinese medicine on advanced cancer is better, because the patients with advanced cancer are weak due to the large consumption of cancer cells. Most of the cancer cells have metastasized in many places. The local treatment effect of Western medicine is not good, and the patients can not tolerate surgery and radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Taking traditional Chinese medicine can comprehensively regulate the internal environment of the body, tonify Qi and nourish blood, strengthen healthy and eliminate pathogenic factors, effectively control the disease, relieve pain and prolong life.
