One caveat about supplements: ***** Ask your onc. before taking anything!******
There could be drug interactions you're unaware of (between supplements and chemo, all of which are composed of chemicals -- everything on Earth contains at least one chemical), and at least one cancer (pancreatic) affects the liver, which then can't process a big range of chemicals.
Stuff that occurs naturally on Earth can kill you (such as arsenic). Stuff that isn't tested / standardized can harm you and sometimes kill you. I'm pro-responsible-supplementation, but during chemo you MUST clear everything w your onc.
