I’m curious if anyone here has tried any of these. I’ve read some success stories but would love to hear firsthand experiences. It seems like the medical community has been hesitant to share much information about how these options might benefit people with cancer, whether it’s breast, colon, or other types.…
Hi everyone, My post won't be too popular but I'm entitled to feel the way I do--to fight cancer or not. Im 50 and recently dx with IDC. Clinical staging is in the works but regardless of the results, I just don't care to treat it. I have my reasons, and would like to talk with others who feel similar feelings. Thanks so…
Hi Guys, Has ANYONE has any kind of success with this type of treatment maybe in conjunction with traditional treatments? (edited by mods to remove link) Other boards just refuse to discuss this.

I am 48 years old, Stage 2 got diagnosed with ER/PR + HR2-.

I'm researching a lot and it seems based on the date that hormone treat may give me max a 10% reduction in my recurrence rate. I did AC-T chemo, had a double…
I wonder if anyone out there is using this and, if so, what your personal experience has been. My integrative oncologist has just added maca powder to my lengthy regimen of supplements, and today, quite by accident while researching something else, came across some information that suggests it may raise estrogen levels.…
I'm researching diindolylmethane (DIM), trying to find the best brand name, there are so many. Recommendations by your doctors would be highly appreciated. Thank you!
I am just curious if anyone else has been using black seed oil for breast cancer (nigella sativa) and the results they have experienced. I have been taking it for a few months and I am (so far anyways) stable. I am wondering if I stumbled across a hidden gem or am I the last to know about this stuff?!
