The tried and true ways to get rid of oral cancer are surgery, radiation with or with out chemo. Thats it! Anyone who tells you differentlky is a liar! There are millions of dollars spent of false cures. Just read the quackwatch.com and you will see all the bizarre treatments that scammers attempt to push off as cures. Best advice I can give you is to get treated at a cancer center and to eat everything you are able to now before treatments begin.
Best wishes with your treatments.
