∙ 11y agoIn most cases, yes. However it depends on the stage of the lymphoma and where it is in the body.
Non-Hodgkins lymphoma is actually an umbrella category for a range of types of lymphoma. Some are more aggressive than others. Treatment these days is very good and there is a good response rate both with conventional medical treatment, and sometimes with nutritional treatments. I say this as a 19-year Survivor of conventional medical treatment, and I have a friend who went on a macrobiotic diet and beat it as well. (Note: I have read recently that diets that include some animal protein are being used successfully in treatment, as different nutritional-based therapies work from different theories.)
