Hello Everyone,
Many thanks for the responses. I know in many cases radiation of the neck can cause patients to be placed on feeding tubes as well as certain digestive disorders and short bowel syndrome and many diseases or conditions. How many others are using an alternative nutrition method?

Oh wow...I don't think I even knew that. I had a total thyroidectomy and did not need radiation at the time. I am not so sure I would opt for radiation at any point. As far as alternative methods, I use only certified therapeutic grade essential oils and supplements as well as staying away from non-whole foods and sugars (I know this is controversial, but I believe sugar feeds cancer) Hope this helps. Blessings
