Pancratistatin

I came across this compound while desperately trying to find something to take, other than the chemotherapy, the oncologist wants me to have, to try to reduce the chances of breast cancer recurrence in the next 8 years. Pancratistatin is a natural compound that is obtained from the Hawaiian Spider Lily. It is known to be specific and selective in inducing apoptosis in multiple cancer cell lines, while sparing non- cancerous cells. Unlike chemotherapy. If you go online, you can see what has been done so far with it for various cancers, including breast cancer. OMG if only this would be in use right now.
