Question:

I have just started chemotherapy. I am a 49-year-old otherwise-healthy female, who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. All the cancer in my breast has been removed. I am just wondering what foods and vitamins or supplements will help me on my journey.

Answer:

It isn't really possible for me to give you any specific advice when I don't know what medication you are being given.

Doctors can have differing views on the use of complementary medicines while having chemotherapy and you should speak to your medical team to assess their opinion.

When your chemo is completed it would be a good idea for you to find a naturopath who specialises in cancer support.
