Re: Fish Oil Reduces BC Risk by 32%

I sometimes listen to a radio talk show for a while after going to bed to help wind down the day, and last night I caught just a bit of the fish oil/breast cancer discussion. The gentleman/guest was advising people to also consume green tea and turmeric in addition to fish oil...the thought was that all 3 should be consumed daily by people with or without breast cancer.

This is not new news to the Her2 Support group, but it serves as another reminder.
