Flaxseed Efficacy
I asked in this support group whether anyone has knowledge of flaxseed's rich phytoestrogen that can work against arimidex. Meanwhile, I wrote to Steve Martin, the contact person for the group that made the exciting news of flaxseed pastry that cut the cancer growth rate as well as the sharp reduction of HER2 positivity. Guess the big surprise I received from Dr. Martin. I quote the exact message from him:
"Forget the flaxseed. I agree with your doctor. Use curcumin dissolved in heavy cream or at least 1/2 and 1/2. Go back about 3 weeks in the blogs to find my essays. Curcumin is wonderful against cancer. Or do a search on our web site for the words curcumin cancer."
Dr. Martin told me to follow my onc's general advice of staying away from phytoestrogen, which is a major ingredient in flaxseed. I am totally shocked. The people who tauted about flaxseed asked me to forget about flaxseed!
Just to let others to join the confusion.
