My husband is fine. I urge you not to jump the gun on anything the book or Google tells you u til you meet with your oncologist or a dietician that is versed in the right steps to take for cancer. I believe in my heart of hearts that my liver lesions are stable because of the advice Dr. Mussalem gave me. She even ordered a lot of blood work in addition to my oncologists orders. She checked for vitamin deficiencies.
