ABSTRACT-
Nearly one in two men and more than one in three women in the United States will be diagnosed with cancer at some point in his or her lifetime. Cancer is now the leading cause of death for individuals under age 85.Cancer results from a series of molecular events that fundamentally alter the normal properties of cells. In cancer cells the normal control systems that prevent cell overgrowth and the invasion of other tissues are disabled. Cancer begins when cells in a part of the body start to grow out of control. There are many kinds of cancer, but they all start because of out-of-control growth of abnormal cells. The cases of cancer are increasing day by day. Different treatment ie.radical excision, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, palliative surgery, hormonal therapies are recommended alone or in combination but not very good outcome comes. An integrated approach is needed to manage cancer by using the scientific developments. Hundred of herbal compound are being screened worldwide to validate the efficacy of these drug as anti-cancerous drugs. If a combine approach of ayurveda and modern treatment is opted a better outcome may possible.
