A Parent’s Guide to Childhood Cancer

“A Parent’s Guide to Childhood Cancer is a vital integrative cancer guide for parents confronting the challenging reality of a child’s cancer diagnosis. Dagmara Beine not only provides practical, easily digestible knowledge and guidance on integrative therapies and approaches but also instills a profound sense of hope and empowerment.”

—Ivelisse Page, co-founder and executive director of Believe Big Institute of Health

“We’re so, so proud of Dagmara Beine for writing the book that needed to be written! Nothing even close to this existed when our son was diagnosed with cancer. Trying to figure out the integrative approach to childhood cancer and pouring through obscure studies definitely earns you the honorary ‘momcologist’ degree . . . The difference is that Dagmara went on to get an actual degree and to lovingly compile all of the information in one place, making it way easier on you than it was for us. Dagmara Beine has risen to be one of the best in a breathtakingly short amount of time, and we’re so lucky to have her in the childhood cancer community.”

—Ryan and Teddy Sternagel, founders of The Stern Method

“Having a child diagnosed with cancer is a horrific experience for any parent to endure. But it’s made even more difficult by the almost complete lack of information and support for pediatric cancer treatments beyond the conventional medical approach. In this indispensable book, Dr. Beine provides a practical primer on integrative cancer therapies for children based on a metabolic framework of understanding the disease. I can’t recommend it enough.”

—Chris Kresser, MS, LAc, founder of Kresser Institute; New York Times bestselling author

“It is imperative that the parents of children with cancer become an instrumental part of their child’s health care team. Dagmara Beine has not only created a blueprint for doing this but also for navigating an impaired conventional healthcare system in such a way to include holistic healing modalities, with a lens on individualized treatment plans best suited for their child."

—Michelle Perro, MD, DHom, coauthor, What’s Making Our Children Sick?; cofounder and CEO, GMOScience

“Thank you, Dagmara Beine for your courage, your knowledge, and your compassion in writing this amazing book. It not only offers hope, but also has the potential to make a difference and even save the lives of our youngest members of the worldwide family of cancer-affected people. A Parent’s Guide to Childhood Cancer offers a wealth of knowledge, options, and practical advice for parents, along with a well-balanced respect for the necessity of mainstream treatments in child oncology. This book can help us navigate the artificial boundaries between evidence-based hospital care and experience-based holistic medicine and show that the approaches are not exclusive but complementary. I highly recommend all parents, friends, and medical professionals treating children with cancer to read this book!”
