Question: P13k inhibitor in addition to Herceptin?

[fcrcm]

Thanks so much for the quick feedback, and also consult on how to navigate this link. I am so glad I found you guys. I'll take the MC Anderson and Hopkins articles (looks like they're from the same source) to my doctor when I next see him.

Some natural P13K inhibitors are selenium - be very careful here as too much is very, very toxic. Also D-beta glucan found in maitake mushrooms (you can find this as a supplement) has been shown (in the test tube) to activate the inactive form of Pten (which is why I take maitake mushroom capsules).

Kind regards

RE Selinium

I have seen that selinium deficinecy is reported as favouring the omega six pathway.

Information in the Greek diet post may suggest that balancing the omega threes and six may help inhibit PI3k as well.
