The case alleviated the severe side effects of leukemia medication.

Four years ago, during a routine company health check, I was diagnosed with an abnormal white blood cell count. For a healthy person, the normal white blood cell count is 4,000 to 8,000 per cubic millimeter, but my white blood cell count exceeded 90,000. No wonder I felt tired easily, and even a few days before the health check, I felt like my legs were dangling in the air when climbing the stairs at the train station, and I almost fell down.

A week after my health check, I was so scared that I secretly went to a large hospital for a thorough checkup. The results showed that my white blood cell count had increased to over 120,000, and I had to be hospitalized. I was diagnosed with "chronic myeloid leukemia," which means that there is an abnormality in my chromosomes, and the cells in my bone marrow that produce blood cannot function properly, causing my white blood cell count to keep increasing.

Regarding treatment, the doctor decided to first inject me with anticancer drugs to suppress the increase in white blood cells. After the white blood cell count decreased to a certain level, I would then be injected with interferon (a substance that can inhibit viral replication). I was hospitalized in early October. After receiving the anticancer drugs, I waited for my white blood cell count to decrease to a certain level before receiving interferon treatment in early November.

Whether using anticancer drugs or interferon, patients will experience side effects such as fever, general fatigue, loss of appetite, headache, and hair loss. I knew beforehand that the side effects of this treatment were severe, and I was mentally prepared. To alleviate the side effects, I also tried taking quite a few health supplements.

A month after I was hospitalized, a friend came to visit me. He had just returned from abroad and brought me a jar of health supplements made from white sweet potatoes. I had heard about the medicinal and health-strengthening properties of white sweet potatoes before, so I decided to try them. They tasted similar to roasted sweet potatoes, only shaped like pills. I took 10 pills before breakfast and 10 before dinner each day, for a total of 20 pills daily.

Strangely enough, after taking this health supplement, the original side effects completely disappeared, which surprised me. I remember when I first started receiving interferon injections, I had a fever of over 39°C and felt very uncomfortable. I originally injected every other day, but soon it became daily. It's probably because I started taking sweet potato pills that, although the frequency of injections increased, I only had a slight fever.

After three months of hospitalization, I was finally discharged and returned to my original job, now receiving anticancer injections every few days. During that time, I continued to take sweet potato pills. Although I still experienced headaches, general fatigue, and felt very tired after walking only a short distance, the doctor said that compared to other people with leukemia, my side effects were relatively mild.

In addition, since I started interferon injections, my hair has been falling out in clumps. I was very worried that if this continued, I would lose all my hair. Fortunately, after taking sweet potato pills for about a month, the hair loss stopped, and new hair even grew. Another month later, my curly hair, which had become a side effect of the anticancer drugs, straightened out.

Now, I go to the hospital to inject interferon five days a week, and I get an anticancer injection every two days. My white blood cell count has stabilized between 2,500 and 3,500, and I can walk for half an hour to an hour without any problem. I can also go to work two to three days a week.

My recovery to this point is likely related to the fact that I took sweet potato pills while undergoing treatment, which minimized the side effects of my treatment and prevented me from experiencing pain.

White sweet potatoes can regenerate healthy blood and cells, and contain vitamins and minerals that inhibit the growth of leukemia cells. In fact, patients undergoing leukemia treatment often struggle with the side effects of medications, and white sweet potatoes have a liver-activating effect, enhancing the liver's detoxification function and thus suppressing these side effects. Leukemia is also known as blood cancer, and to prevent a relapse, I will continue to consume sweet potato pills.

The case spared the suffering of hair loss and vomiting commonly associated with chemotherapy.

About five years ago, I started experiencing frequent stomach pains, regardless of whether I had eaten or not. I felt something was wrong, but I always thought it was just gastritis. Unexpectedly, after a hospital checkup, the doctor told me I had stomach cancer and only three months to live without surgery. So, without hesitation, I immediately underwent surgery, which removed my stomach and duodenum, and even my pancreas, spleen, and gallbladder were lost.

The doctor said I had to wait until I recovered my strength before I could start chemotherapy. However, the thought of chemotherapy made me think of hair loss, vomiting, and the torment of high fever. Seeing my worry, my wife suggested I try eating white sweet potatoes. She said that white sweet potatoes had been used as medicine since ancient times because they could treat many diseases, so I started eating white sweet potatoes every morning and evening.

My surgery went smoothly, and my recovery was excellent, so I started chemotherapy a month later. At that time, although I had been eating sweet potatoes for a short period, I was still uneasy about using chemotherapy to treat cancer. Unexpectedly, after starting chemotherapy, my condition didn't worsen at all, and I didn't even lose any hair. Because of my good health, I was able to undergo more than fifty chemotherapy sessions, once a week, which surprised even my doctors. I am still undergoing treatment, and I am confident that I will recover.
