Theophyline is another P13K inhibitor. It is found in coffee and green tea. Also, caffeine is another P13K inhibitor and is in the same drinks (and green tea is great for you anyway).

PS - I remember reading the article and the man with lung cancer was using 12 grams per day of fish oil capsules but when his persistant nodule wasn't shrinking, he upped it to 21g per day (did so gradually). Also, if your mom can tolerate it, an aspirin or ibuprofen a day (a regular strength one) would be good as a COX2 inhibitor (both drugs are also COX1 as well - neither work as good as Celebrex but... you can get them and you know you aren't risking heart problems).
