I am confused about most things to do with diet and nutrition...... It seems you read one thing it makes sense you beleive in it then implement it only to read months down the line it could be a mistake!! I hate the uncertainty. I added CoQ10 about half way through my chemo and have been taking ever since now I don't really know what to do???
