- Your stupidity amazes me.
Well... Breaking news. The world as we know it still hasn't found a cure for cancer. If there is someone out there with the hidden cure, I highly doubt they're surfing to answer questions on yahoo answers. Sorry to break it you.

Before chemotherapy, the survival rate for ALL was 0.
So no.
Anyone with cancer should go to a real doctor.

So far, none.

No, nobody knows of such a cure, although as the day progresses some people with no knowledge or experience of cancer may well answer by telling you of their favourite cancer cure - the one they read about on the internet which had lots of glowing and unsubstantiated testimonials.
These people mean well; but a warm, fuzzy feeling that 'natural' must be better and the ability to google do not a cancer expert make.
If there were a 'natural' way to cure any cancer, then that's what hospitals would be using. I can already hear the cries of 'Big Pharma' and 'profit'; this ignores the fact that in countries where people don't pay for their health care and cancer treatment costs governments millions, the same treatments are used.
This is because they are the treatments that have been proven to be effective in double-blind clinical trials. No guarantees are given - unlike in 'alternative medicine', whose practitioners and supporters will assure you that their restrictive diets, teas, potions, machines, seeds, soups etc WILL cure your cancer.
Any claims that natural substances that could treat cancer are ignored or covered up because they can't be patented can also be ignored; in fact it's common for synthetic derivatives to be made that are an improvement on the original, and it's also common to get patents on the methods of isolating or administering the substance.
So even if a pharmaceutical company couldn't make money directly from naturally occurring substance, if it were effective they could make plenty of money and get plenty kudos from developing a safer, more effective derivative. The chemotherapy drug Taxol is derived from yew.
But where something has have not been shown to be effective against cancer, pharmaceutical companies won't bother with it. They're after profits, after all.
The hard fact is there is no guaranteed cure for any type of cancer. I understand your desperation, whether it is for yourself or on someone else's behalf. When I was diagnosed with cancer I was determined not to have harsh conventional treatments, and I researched 'alternative' and 'natural' treatments day and night.
The result of my research was that I learned that no 'alternative' or 'natural' treatment had been proven to have cured one case of cancer, ever.
If you are tempted by anything claimed to be a natural or alternative cancer treatment, do a search on this site for information b efore you invest hope, money or (most dangerous of all for a cancer patient) time in something unproven, ineffective and possibly dangerous

lo_mcg is absolutely correct, millions of pounds are spent annually on cancer research and one day they may find a herb that does, if they do they will refine it, carry out endless safety checks which takes years, if it is granted a licence it will then be called medicine.
There was a similar question to yours about skin cancer and melanomas a few days ago and some idiot suggest oleander soup or vitamin C baths, so be prepared for those, so in direct answer to your question, nobody KNOWS of a cure.
