Nutritional / supplement changes

[Guest guest]

From my perusing the last few days, I learned the following:

D3 is the only acceptable form of oral vitamin D, although sunlight is

always preferred. A cancer patient should probably be taking 10,000

units a day, although Dr. Mercola says one should be tested at this

level to prevent toxicity.

The best form of selenium may be methylselenocysteine.

Some alternative cancer sites advocate very high levels of iodine

supplementation -- 50 -- 100 mg a day. However, in browsing the web, I

found that iodine is a chemical used in making " meth " , and most forms

of supplements having this high an amount of iodine are not available

anymore.

Hello jrrjim,

You can also look into calcitriol. It's an activated form of vitamin

D that bypasses parathyroid control. You can get serum levels

higher. It has the ability to slow the cancer cell cycle, giving

other things more time to work.

Is this a prescription med? I don't seem to see it listed on the

popular vitamin web sites.

Hello jrrjim,

Yes it's a script drug. However you can get it from various Canadian

pharmacy sites without prescription. You can find it for about a

buck a pill.

Jim,

For iodine information, look at http://www.breastcancerchoices.org.

You can order yourself the iodine loading test. And you can supplement,

if needed, with Iodoral.
