The liver is a vital organ that governs the body’s metabolism and is especially adept at clearing harmful substances. Liver cancer is a serious public health issue in the United States. Around 30,000 to 40,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with liver cancer yearly, with an annual death rate of about 30,000. Early detection is difficult, and when diagnosed, it is usually at an advanced stage, resulting in a high mortality rate.
Western medicine’s prime treatment methods typically include surgery, chemotherapy, and other similar methods. However, acupuncture, Chinese medicinal treatment, and other traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) approaches can be used in conjunction with adjuvant treatment. Moreover, lifestyle changes and adaptation can also help prevent liver cancer.
