I am certainly not the expert in diet here. Rhonda is superb, really superb. maybe she'll see this thread.

Other ones of us support flaxseed ( not if you are er+).

I did not take any antioxidants during chemo. However, I have heard others take a minimum amount of coq10 during chemo

I take small amount of coq10 now under herceptin. I hope it's working, my mugga not great but steady enough.

I drink milk, nofat and low fart yogurt.

I also used a regular one a day kind of pill ( centrum or one a day is ok, per the docs)

I have used Beating Cancer with Nutrition by Patrick Quillin. I believe Rhonda uses the Breast Cancer Diet. Search for this here, she's written about it. I printed her write up and keep it in a file for reference.

However I do admit, I cannot give up a daily m&m or a cookie as treat. Can't do it

Hang in there
