Exclamation I know this got MY attention...RB????

"Our results molecularly support a recent randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial suggesting that ALA may be a potential dietary alternative or adjunct to currently used drugs in the management of HER2-positive breast carcinomas".

I can't WAIT for the WHEL study findings that come out in 2008 and considering the new guideline I posted yesterday from the American Cancer Society regarding diet, exercise etc., I think this is being looked at MORE closely for not only prevention of original dx, but prevention of recurrence (THEY even said diet and exercise could help prevent recurrence). Take care and God bless.
