Dietary Supplements make a cancer return

FILE - A radiologist uses a magnifying glass to check mammograms for breast cancer in Los Angeles.


A new study suggests that breast cancer patients taking dietary supplements may face recurrences. Researchers found the effectiveness of chemotherapy could be lowered by the intake of dietary supplements. Ambrosone and other researchers decided to study the effect of supplements to chemotherapy’s efficacy. They looked for evidence in an earlier study on diet, exercise, lifestyle and cancer results.

The researches of a meta-study searched for other possibilities that might increase the relapses of breast cancer.They found that patients taking any supplements at the beginning of and during chemotherapy were 41 percent more to meet the reappearing of breast cancer comparint to patients without those supplements. In addition, the supplement takers were 40 percent more likely to die later on compared to patients using no supplements. Those supplements are vitamin A, C and E.

Not only that. Some other additional supplements are more likely dangerous than those not taking those supplements. Those taking vitamin B12 and iron supplements may experience a return of their disease and 22 percent more likely to die. Those taking omega-3 supplement by 67 percent more likely to experience of breast cancer relapse. 

Those taking vitamin B12 and iron supplements were at greater risk of cancer returning, the researchers said. Women taking vitamin B12 were 83 percent more likely to experience a return of their disease and 22 percent more likely to die from it than those not taking those supplements. Those taking omega-3 supplements were 67 percent more likely to have the disease return. That percentage rose to 79 for those taking iron supplements.

I want to live to my lifespan reaches the end. And I wish to see my kids grow up to be descent adults and I also want to see their weddings. Our lives, however, are valuable since it is limited. If our ancestors lived longer too much than usual, there would no chance for our lives. We cannot stay in this world forever, but our genes can do generation to generation, so it can be interpreted like we will live eternally with a renewed body and spirits.
