A Message from Dr. Brandy Pennington, N.D.
Naturopathic Physician · Herbal Cancer Researcher
Dear Friends, Colleagues, and Supporters,
I’m Dr. Brandy Pennington, a licensed naturopathic doctor with a passion for integrating traditional herbal wisdom and modern science. Today, I’m inviting you to join our groundbreaking initiative to develop complementary herbal protocols aimed at supporting—and one day even helping to prevent or treat—carcinoma cancers.
Why We’re Here
Despite tremendous advances in oncology, carcinoma remains one of the world’s leading causes of cancer-related morbidity. While conventional therapies (surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, targeted therapies) are—and must remain—the cornerstone of treatment, our team believes that carefully researched herbal formulations can:
• Modulate immune responses
• Reduce chronic inflammation
• Enhance patients’ quality of life during treatment
• Potentially inhibit certain tumor-promoting pathways
Our Research Approach
Preclinical Screening
• We’ve assembled a library of over 50 botanicals—from well-known anti-inflammatories like turmeric (Curcuma longa) to under-studied adaptogens used in folk medicine.
• In our lab, we’re testing standardized extracts for cytotoxicity against carcinoma cell lines, antioxidant capacity, and effects on immune cell function.
Formulation & Safety
• Promising candidates are combined into multi-herb prototypes.
• Rigorous toxicity panels ensure patient safety and rule out herb-drug interactions, particularly with common chemotherapy agents.
Pilot Clinical Trials
• In collaboration with an academic medical center, we’re designing small Phase I/II trials to evaluate tolerability and preliminary efficacy as an adjunct to standard care.
• Endpoints include immune markers (CD4/CD8 ratios), inflammatory cytokines, patient-reported symptom relief, and quality-of-life scales.
Why Herbalism Matters
Herbal medicine offers:
• A rich pharmacopeia of bioactive compounds
• Centuries of empirical use in diverse medical traditions
• Opportunities to uncover novel synergies between plant constituents and modern drugs
Our vision is not to replace your oncologist’s protocol but to empower patients with evidence-based botanical tools that may enhance their resilience and well-being throughout the cancer journey.
