Nutrition and Complementary Medicine in Cancer: An Interdisciplinary Approach

The Nutrition and Complementary Medicine in Cancer: An Interdisciplinary Approach is the twenty seventh volume of the Interdisciplinary Cancer Research series, publishes comprehensive volume on nutrition and complementary medicine in cancer. The volume starts with a chapter on fecal microbiota transplantation and cancer immunotherapy, followed by another chapter on the role of tumor microenvironment in the microbiome and innate immunity. After discussion on interplay of nutrigenomics and cancer research, the role of nutrition in cancer as well as insights on dietary anticancer products are explained. Omega 3 dietary intervention, consumption of sugars, organoselenium compounds, anthocyanins, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are the subjects of other chapters. The second part of the volume focuses on complementary and alternative medicine. It starts with a general chapter on integrated approach to precision oncology and role of traditional and alternative medicine in cancer therapy. Harnessing Nature's Pharmacy and natural compounds in targeting cellular organelles for drug delivery are the subjects of two other chapters. Potential application of medicinal plant-based nanomaterials as well as flavonoids and marine in cancer therapy are also discussed. Finally, clinical use of photosensitizers in photodynamic diagnosis and cancer therapy is explained. This is the main concept of Cancer Immunology Project (CIP), which is a part of Universal Scientific Education and Research Network (USERN). This interdisciplinary book will be of special value for those who wish to have an update on
