Re: The Breast Cancer Diet (with checklist)
Not sure how much there is to it, but I have read that you should not have grapefruit while on Herceptin:
- "Grapefruit should be avoided during Herceptin and chemotherapy treatment because of potential grapefruit-drug interactions."
Source: http://foodforbreastcancer.com/artic...n-treatment%3F
- "There are some concerns about consuming grapefruit (as a fruit or juice) whilst taking the drug. Best to avoid."

I don't particularly like Grapefruit, so no problem for me...
