I was wondering if someone on this forum who is knowledgeable about vitamins/supplements (or who is a naturopath) could help me? My mother has late stage liver cancer, with metastases in her abdomen, chest and neck. As you can understand, the situation is dire, so I have spent countless sleepless nights doing research and have devised a very heavy vitamin/herbal supplement regime, combined with DCA.

On a daily basis, this is what it looks like:

-DCA dissolved in a glass of cold water with 1/4 lemon juice, first thing in the morning and before bed.

My question is: other members of my family are concerned that this regime is too intense, i.e. too many capsules/tablets on a daily basis. Does anyone know if the above could be detrimental to my Mom's health? Interactions?

Also, with so many supplements being consumed, do I need to add some enzymes to assist with their breakdown?

Thanks in advance!

1. Look at the protocol I made for a cervix cancer, it must work for the liver cancer. I used only:

DCA
Vitamin B1
Reishi
Maitake
Alpha lipoic acid -R
No nausea product (zofren or primperam or .....)

2. On the protocol you describe in your post, you wrote:

1. Vitamin B : is it vitamin B1 ?
2. Alpha lipoic acid : is it Alpha Lipoic acid -R
( -R is a natural product better than the manufactured product)

For me you are using too much products. It's not necessary.

Where do you live (country ?) ?

I am a new member of the forum . My brother is also suffering from liver cancer. He started taking DCA therapy about 3 weeks ago and has seen noticeable improvements in AFP counts. He was advised to take following supplements with 1g/day of DCA

- Paw Paw 3
- Vitamin B1
- Colostrum
- Proteas+ ( enzyme supplement)
- Triple mushroom capsules
- Grape seed, green tree and pine bark complex capsule

I hope this helps and wish you all the best .

Regards,

Vijay
