Supplements for Colon Cancer

Question: What supplements might be most beneficial for someone with colon cancer?

Dr. Blaylock's Answer:

An impressive amount of research is showing that curcumin, quercetin, ellagic acid, N-butyrate, and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) can inhibit colon cancers. They also all enhance the effectiveness and reduce the side effects of chemotherapy — that is, they kill cancer cells and protect normal cells.

There is a very strong connection between colon cancer invasion and growth and glutamate intake. Glutamates (such as hydrolyzed proteins and soy proteins) are found in most processed foods. Fresh foods, especially vegetables, are essential to reduce cancer growth.

White tea contains a number of anticancer compounds — even three cups of strong white tea a day supplies these cancer- fighting chemicals. Avoiding excess iron is essential as well. For more details on fighting cancer, see my book “Natural Strategies for Cancer Patients.”
