RB, thanks for the information on Tuna, I knew about the mercury risks and that is one reason why I don't eat it everyday, although, I do love Tuna, much more than other omega three fish. Because of mercury risks, I end up taking supplements of omega three more often than fish food sources. Thanks for the article on flaxseed that sites downregulation of her2. Whoa, if I had seen that prior to surgery, I would have filled up on flaxseed muffins-yum.

Tom, good to see you again. Thanks for the very extensive list, it will take me awhile to digest it all-haha. Yes, orange peel on the list. That is another odd item that I happen to like. which specifically downregulates her2.

PS.
THE WHOLE POINT OF MY THREAD WAS TO GET PEOPLE TO THINK ABOUT TAKING MULTIPLE NATURAL DOWNREGULATING FOODS/DRINKS/SUPPLEMENTS TO HELP DOWNREGUALTE HER2 RATHER THAN FOCUSING ON JUST ONE OR TWO BECAUSE HER2 IS A ROBUST MULTI-PATH NETWORK THAT MAY BE CHALLENGING TO BLOCK.

SUMMARY OF THAT LIST WHICH SPECIFICALLY DOWNREGULATES HER2-

CABBAGE. BRUSSEL SPROUTS, BROCOLLI, KALE, CAULIFLOWER
ONIONS, PARSLEY, ORANGE PEEL, CHAMOMILE

PS. (SEE POST LINK ABOVE TO SEE HOW THESE SUPPLEMENTS DECREASE HER2 VIA SUPPORTING ARTICLES)
