Many chemotherapeutic agents are available in today's market that
are highly effective against a variety of cancer types; however,
the major drawbacks of these chemotherapeutic agents are the many
side effects. As an alternative to these chemotherapeutic agents,
there are a number of natural agents that are effective against
cancer that have been tested in preclinical and clinical models
over the years. These natural products must be documented and
discussed in order to provide a thorough overview of all the
options available for cancer treatment. The Handbook of Research on
Natural Products and Their Bioactive Compounds as Cancer
Therapeutics emphasizes the list of natural agents against all
types of cancers and discusses the current state of research in the
fields of natural products and their derivatives against cancer in
preclinical and clinical models. This book also provides insight
into the applications of meditation and mindfulness-based
interventions in clinical and non-clinical conditions. Covering
topics such as cancer therapy, antioxidants, and flavonoids, it is
ideal for students, research scholars, academicians, professors,
scientists, oncologists, doctors, and medical practitioners.
