As an AI alternative you could look into Breast Defend, a formula by Dr. Isaac Eliaz. There is an excellent Interview with Dr. Eliaz about this formula by Ralph Moss.
Ralph Moss is a great source of information on all cancers.

@pbnew and @kchiavetta86, I just did a Google search for BreastDefend and I'm not finding any recent and/or clearly evidence-based information about its effectiveness from trusted and qualified health and medical sources. I found early studies from 2012 in animals that showed some glimmer of promise. But since then, I see no updated human trials or the herbal formula being used as standard of care or by integrative medicine practitioners.

All sites I've found have a commercial interest, including Ralph Moss. I highly recommend you talk to your oncologist before using any supplements to find out if a) they may be harmful, b) have a negative impact on the effectiveness of your current treatment or c) be a waste of your money.

I also recommend using the herb search hosted and evaluated by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK). You can search for any herb or supplement and find the substances purported use, benefits and potential side effects, as well as evidence for its effectiveness or not.
