Re: Heart function decresed
My naturopath has me take D Ribose along with the CoQ10, Omegas, ets. D Ribose is often prescribed to folks experiencing congestive heart failure and is good for supporting the heart muscle. My Oncologist and Cardiologist both approved it. If you look at my protocol, I was given Adriamycin and Herceptin at the same time - something seldom done because of the cardiac toxicity and I did great.
Google D Ribose to get more info.
