I agree about checking first before taking any type of supplement - I should have issued a disclaimer - but rest assured that we did check with the RO before taking anything. He let us know to avoid antioxidants, but the zinc, tumeric and multi he approved. We also ran it by the nutritionist and got her approval. Not all doctors agree (on anything!), so please check with your treatment team before taking any supplements.
This was just something that we felt helped.
