Pippali IS amazing. In the winter months I add it or Trikatu (= amts Pippali, Ginger and Black Pepper) to every hot drink, several times a day.
Now... Cancer herbs info, pinging the list. Sorry about long amazon links. There are no doubt other natural medicinals that may help with cancer; these are ones I used or know about. I think the large quantities of herbs I took before and after surgery helped my “cancer free” test 10 months after surgery.
Many of these herbs can be taken as preventatives, dose is subjective in many cases depending on health status, age, etc. If anyone has questions, just ask. If I don’t know, I will say so!
Turkey Tails - Coriolus versicolor
A tree fungus that grows mostly on dead hardwood. Used in China and Japan for cancer; strengthens immune system and has anti-cancer benefits. I used this brand, tablets are huge but I put in a cup, added about 1/3 c. hot water, it dissolved fast, and drank it.

Other brand I used. I do not use herbs from China, so check sources.

Naturopath recommended, and I found matcha is stronger in the constituents said to be helpful against cancer. Found a lot of Ito En at Grocery Outlet at very good prices.
Green tea and green tea polyphenols (GTPs) are reported to inhibit carcinogenesis and malignant behavior in several diseases
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6164790/
Early clinical studies suggest that the polyphenols in tea, especially green tea, may play an important role in the prevention of cancer. Researchers also believe that polyphenols help kill cancerous cells and stop them from growing. https://www.mountsinai.org/health-library/herb/green-tea
Ito En Matcha – plain, below is sweetened, a lot cheaper

https://www.amazon.com/Alcohol-FREE-Extract-Wildcrafted-Ceanothus-Americanus/dp/B01MU63YTJ/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=red+root+tincture&qid=1642813532&sr=8-5
Vit D3
Important immune support, with larger doses one needs to be careful about balancing.
Quercetin
I did not know about Quercetin when I had cancer, but it sounds like something to add.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4808895/
“Quercetin, a flavonoid found in fruits and vegetables, has unique biological properties that may improve mental/physical performance and reduce infection risk [1]. These properties form the basis for potential benefits to overall health and disease resistance, including anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antioxidant, and psychostimulant activities, as well as the ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation, platelet aggregation and capillary permeability, and to stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis [2]. Therefore, there is a pressing need for well-designed clinical trials to evaluate this novel dietary supplement further. This article reviews effects of quercetin on inflammation and immunity in mental and physical performance and health.”
