Unfortunately there are not studies that I could share with you, because there is no interest ( business wise) to prove that alternative treatments work. Harvard has a study about intravenous Vitamin C works, but what business would vitamin C bring? As I said before that my hope is for a hybrid among conventional and alternative treatments. How beautiful would be to see that? Alternative treatments is not just diet and exercise. My experience with Sloan Kettering have been so good. When I met my surgeon's nurse she told me " we work with the body, mind and soul". It felt so good! Right there I switched from Mount Sinai to Sloan Kettering.

Diet alone doesn't work in my perspective. Maybe for Stage 0.

We all are so unique and beautiful!

Peace and light!

I’m DCIS grade 3. Had 2 surgeries. The ladies here on this site have helped me tremendously to check up on proton radiation and gamma pod radiation besides traditional. I’m about to start traditional radiation tomorrow. But I wanted to share about my brother in law who was diagnosed with thymoma when getting treatment for thyroid cancer. It’s a rare form of cancer right near the heart. He underwent a brutal surgery where they had to collapse his lungs. He also has 6-8 weeks I think of radiation with the heart right there. He choose to go on a super healthy diet and exercise. It’s been 10 years since and he’s doing well. Combination of both strategies seems to have helped him. I’m hoping it does for me too but I just can’t seem to give up my one guilty pleasure of drinking tea with a spoonful of sugar in the mornings! 😬. I don’t drink, or smoke. Generally am healthy and eat healthy. Exercise but had IVF fertility treatments that probably did me in.

There is a new book called: Handbook of Research On Natural Products and Their Bioactive Compounds as Cancer Therapeutics, by Ashok Panduangan. It costs $500.00. I tried to order it through my library, but had no success. I am very interested in possibly adding some natural treatment along with the small amount of Tamoxifen I can tolerate.
