A friend from work had a bottle of Mona Vie and I have been wanting to try it. After all, it was just berries with a little Glucosamine thrown in and I didn't think it would hurt. But I decided that I would behave(for once) and ask my onc first before using it. To my surprise he recommended against it for me right now. He said that he felt it could be a good preventative for cancer, in fact that if everyone ate 12 or so different Asian fruits and vegetables every day, no one would get cancer. But he thought that the Mova Vie has the potential to work against my therapy. Right now I am just receiving weekly Herceptin infusions.
