What do you think???

I think much of this is true, and in fact I have read all of this before. I would be curious to know the exact source of this information - it sound to me much like Dr. Patrick Quillen's work in his book "Beating Cancer with Nutrition". Perhaps this was an excerpt from his work? Or something else I've read, beacause heaven knows I've read a LOT of things in my search for things that might tip the scales in my favor. An important thing to note is, once you HAVE cancer, it's a bigger deal than preventing it via these strategies.

At any rate, I found that book very informative, very evidence-based with a lot of good data behind it. If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it.

I'm would be pleased to hear this type of information is being distributed by well respected organizations such as Johns Hopkins - but am skeptical unless it's their complementary medicine group.

I think that (complementary) is the operative word. I seriously doubt that this is recommended as an ALTERNATIVE, but rather as a COMPLEMENT to, other types of treatments. My take on Quillen's book, for example, was that you incorporate lifestyle modifications and minimize, or restrain, the use of toxic therapies.

I think adopting any or all of the recommendations you include would be a reasonable move. My personal opinion, tho, is that dropping the taxotere at this point is risky business. If it were me, I'd get help with the side effects and stick it out while building and replenishing my immunity with the complementary therapies.

Just my opinion. But I do highly recommend Quillen's book!
Hang in there
