Is the olive oil/oleic acid working?

Hello everybody,

In January, articles appeared on the her2support website about Dr. Javier Menendez discovering that oleic acid (found in olive oil) helped herceptin work at the cell level. I was curious if this has worked in people, in part because there was also a discovery that a low-fat diet aided survival in ER-negative women with primary BC, or at least in node-negative ones (they didn't include node-negative women in the experiment) and I want to get the balance right. I was wondering if anybody had experienced anything unusual after using more oleic acid, such as an unexplained shrinkage of secondaries.

Best wishes,

Christine MH
