Natural Quackery

Hi, if I had a dollar for every time someone has suggested a 'cure' or offered me dietary advice....

I know people mean well but it is overwhelming and hard to know what is the right thing to eat or thing to avoid. In the end, I started seeing a great GP who approaches this from a very holistic manner. She has done loads of research and based on clinical evidence/trials, she made some recommendations on supplements/diet (in collaboration with the nutritionist and naturopath in her practice). In general, eat more broccoli/greens, berries, turmeric, garlic, green tea, flaxseeds, mushrooms, carrots/carotene....but if you want specifics to your type of breast cancer and your own circumstances, then seek a professional opinion to make sure it won't compromise your treatment. 

Importantly, my GP has put together a GP management plan which keeps my oncologist, breast cancer surgeon, plastic surgeon and radiation oncologist all in the loop. 

Now when I get friends recommending all sorts of green juices, sugar-free products, cannabis oil, as well as all other alternative therapies....I'm able to say that I am seeing some 'experts' and they have sorted me out, thank you very much!
