Stemming from his work in complementary cancer treatments Daniel authored four books on Botanical Oncology to help physicians better understand the central role that botanicals and their isolates play in the healing of cancer and in helping to prevent multi-drug resistance. Tirelessly Daniel has invented systems and tools to help make prescribing for cancer patients easier, and recently through the highly acclaimed BOTANICAL ONCOLOGY APP.
