Re: Should I take anti-oxidants prior to, during, and post treatment?
Thank you all for researching and posting all these studies. I too was a supplement taker prior to chemo. My MO nixes all supplements except for calcium and Vitamin D (she allows me to continue fiber and acidophilus). She also said if I couldn't stand being supplement-free, I could take plain-old, everyday, Centrum Silver (not the female version).
This is a huge challenge for me, but I'm following orders. Someone once said that when a woman is pregnant she is often anemic, but how often does she crave liver? I am trying to listen seriously to my food cravings, and hopefully get what I need through normal foods.
