Hi there,



Thank R.B yes I have been supplementing my diet with fish oil supplement; i also use probiotic (specially when was on chemo) daily.



Thanks Hebla for the link to quackwatch I had seen it before but I still think that there is something to eating mainly veg product and eating them lives. I know, when I did when I was first diagnosed until my 4th chemo (after which I thought my body was not absorbing anything much anyway). Anyway until after my 2nd chemo I felt and looked, much better.



Many CAM adept claim that this type of food can cure you.. Well off course I do not think that but somewhat there is a lot of sense to go back to a diet we were evolved to eat, meat was rare events. This has changed drastically in the last 50 years. It may just be a coincidence that the healthy stuff tend to leave an alkaline ash, but they did not explain in quackwatch why the variation in ash.



I am convinced that the increase in cancer is mainly/very importantfactor due to diet; how else could we explain that Japonese people have a low rate of BC but the Japonese people born in the west get it at the same rate: it cannot be genetic. Also why would it increase at such a rate.



Love

Karina
