    Hi doctor. Last July I was diagnosed with 3rd stage breast cancer. I had triple positive breast cancer. After chemo with Phesgo 6 doses I had mastectomy and axillilary clearance. My second biopsy showed I have some amount of cancer left. So 15 cycles of radiation and TDM1 Injection started. But unfortunately I had a bad reaction to TDM1 since I had SLE too. But during this period I started to drink tumeric milk morning and evening. I saw someone drinking and i like the taste so. I was not aware that its good for breast cancer. My radiation therapy cycles over on 19th Jan 2024. Two days later I was In ICU. My SLE triggered to a reaction of TDM1. So than on I am fighting a different battle but last month I had my second PAT scan and it shows I am in remission. So tumeric might played a role .

      There is evidence that turmeric supplements, particularly those containing high doses of curcumin, can interfere with the metabolism and effectiveness of tamoxifen, an estrogen receptor modulator used to treat breast cancer. However, the use of turmeric as a spice in food appears to be safe. There is no interaction between turmeric and the aromatase inhibitors.

    How about using it when you are in remission/maintenance with a target drug pertuzamab/trastuzumab? Also have you heard anything about using organic cherry juice concentrate added to your water to kill cancer? It does taste good and turmeric is an acquired taste to me. I have tried to mix it with warm milk, pepper, and a pinch of honey, but it is something you just don't want on a daily bases!

    I take Letrozole daily and also drink a daily juice containing turmeric, ginger, and lemon (i.e. using fresh turmeric and ginger roots for juicing) .

    I thought Turmeric could interfere with Tamoxifen? Why would supplements defer from the powder (spice)?

    • @yerbba
      @yerbba  13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Supplements often contain higher concentrations of active compounds than the spice itself. More research on turmeric's interaction with tamoxifen is needed, but in general, it's best to avoid high amounts of turmeric while on tamoxifen.
