Re: Tangeretin Interferes with Tamoxifen
Thank you for posting this as I had never heard of it before. I posted a link to something interesting I found below. It appears, according to this website, that tangeretin is found mostly in the peels and tissues of various oranges and tangarines. Only very trace amounts are found in lemons and grapefruit. I eat the juice and pulp of two lemons diluted in hot water every day to detoxify my liver (breast cancer mets to liver) so when I saw this I was concerned, as I'm on tamoxifen as well. Thanks so much for posting this - very interesting!
