carolhg Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 Check out the ALTERNATIVE and COMPLEMENTARY THERAPIES forum there are suggestions there. Always check with your doctor before taking any new vitamins or supplements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Selenium is in some clinical trials now for prevention of lung cancer. There is also research being done on Retinoids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ernrol Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I take a lot of supplements, herbs and certain foods. I have no idea how much help they are to me. Many people have their own things that they like. I check out every thing I take with my oncologist. I also do as much research as possible. A good place to look up herbs and supplements etc. is on the web site below. This is maintained by Sloan Kettering, so I feel that it is impartial. If you would like the list of what I took during chemo and what I take now, e-mail me and I will attach the files and send them back.

blaze100 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Hi rmm17, I think we are supposed to be eating as many green and yellow veggies as we can stand... the good ones like broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage and squash. And avoiding diet cola and estrogen replacements and animal fat. Give me a bag of chocolate, a purry cat to hold, and the TV remote. That's all I need.
