Ginger

Anybody undergoing treatment might have a look at this:

"Preclinical studies have also shown that ginger possesses chemopreventive and antineoplastic properties. It is also reported to be effective in ameliorating the side effects of γ-radiation and of doxorubicin and cisplatin; to inhibit the efflux of anticancer drugs by P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and to possess chemosensitizing effects in certain neoplastic cells in vitro and in vivo."

It most likely can't hurt and is worth considering - after talking with doc, as usual.

It would be worth a try. It's also possible that the more expensive extracts/supplements might be more effective - or maybe not.

Interesting article, Ken.  So maybe I need to eat a lot of ginger snaps the next time I go through treatment.  :-)

Thanks for sharing this.
