Re: Turmeric

Hi, Karen:
Congrats on being NED!
Here is a turmeric recipe to get you started:
Potatoes & Peas in Coconut Curry Sauce

I also wanted to add that I'd be cautious seeing an oncologist who refuses to allow you to take supplements. These are health decisions that you have a right to make, especially now that you are done treatment.

While most ONC's are pharmaceutically-based in their beliefs (as fits their training), they should at least be willing to be open to educating themselves on the nutritional benefits of various herbs. I hope you don't mind that I said this, it just concerns me when doctors are completely close-minded to herbs....especially milk thistle, which has frequently been scientifically studied and has proven to have a positive effect on liver function - and turmeric, which has also been scientifically studied on a frequent basis and shows anti-cancer and anti-tumor effects.

Wishing you health and happiness,
Lisa
