# Overview

This library contains the evidence-based topic hubs for natural medicines used or discussed in integrative oncology.

It also includes practical delivery guidance where formulation changes absorption, exposure, and safety.

### What this library includes

Each compound topic is organised into:

* overview
* evidence summary
* evidence by cancer type
* mechanisms
* safety and interactions
* dosing and timing
* sourcing and formulation quality

Some topics also include delivery-focused guidance where liposomal use, formulation choices, and safety need separate coverage.

### What this library is for

Use this library when you want an evidence-based view of a specific natural medicine, including what it is, how it works, where the evidence is strongest, and what practical or clinical questions matter most.

Use the liposomal-delivery hub when the main question is why liposomes matter, how to use them, or how to approach melatonin and ivermectin more safely.
