Yes, if you are a cancer survivors ,yes lot of my patients are cancer survivors. I will say they are the high risk patients who can get affected because if the normal person gets infected, there is a good chance that his body is going to fight a battle with this virus . But if a cancer patient gets infected his body because it has undergone chemotherapy or surgery and is little bit weaker than the other people, the viral load can increase and the virus can easily multiply. So how can you survive this? You have to take multivitamins, vitamin C and Vitamin D. Lot of cancer survivors we do suggest like vitamins like Vitamin D to improve your immune system. So we already are working on your immunity by integrated therapy. What is the meaning of integrated therapy? Integrated therapy is you are giving a good nutrition, you make them do yoga therapy and any aches and pains if are there also will be managed. So how is Nutrition therapy and Yoga Therapy related to cancer? As such nacre cells multiply because your body cells are not able to protect it or kill it. So your immunity is already low. You have got cancer and your immunity is low. If you have taken chemotherapy, your immunity is low because there are some dynamic changes in the body because it is cancer. So this is the reason why immune system comes from the nervous system, immune system comes for the gut system.
