Hi Amazing Group,
I was looking into the efficacy of using Xenical and now I am more confused than ever. I have added more fatty acid supplements to my regimen based on information on increased effectiveness for my chemo regimen (AC and T just ended - now on herceptin and rads 3 just started). Xenical looked good until I saw that it interacts with FAS and now I don't know.
I DO know there are many people here who have done extensive research into the fatty acids - so I am wondering if you can look at what I am taking to make sure I'm not assisting my cancer to grow instead of helping my chemo to work and if you know anything about taking these supplements and the effects Xenical would have on them??????
here are a couple of the abstracts I was reading - or shall we say trying to read :-)

This is what I am taking:
Boarage oil - GLA 900; LA 1440; OA 585
Flax Seed Oil - ALA 1100; LA 300; OA 400
Fish Oil - DHA 1100; EPA 100
so that ends up Omega 3 at 2300, Omega 6 at 2640 and Omega 9 at 985
thanks so much for any help on this issue - have a great day!
Donna
