In the world of naturopathic medicine, Chinese herbs have been used for all types of remedies. From cancer prevention to eyesight renewal to blood pressure balancing, there are many physicians who believe in the healing power of certain natural herbs.

In general, the western medical community shuns these natural remedies (as well as drugmakers) for pretty obvious reasons -- lack of revenue stream. That leaves the question -- are Chinese herbs worth it?

Certain side effects of traditional cancer treatments can be helped by certain Chinese herbs, according to a new study. Is this the beginning of modern medicine believing in natural healing?
