Q: Any Supplement Suggestion, Comments?

It seems that after I was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer I have been scrambling for any kind of "extra" little edge I can get. My cancer was 90% blocking the colon itself and had spread a few seed cells to the stomach lining and my surgeon removed 50 lymph nodes of which 3 showed up positive. S o I am now waiting to heal enough to start my chemo ( 8 treatments-avastin,oxiplatin leucovorin and flu-5) my surgery was nearly3 months ago and I just had my temporary ileostomy removed last week, so I am supposed to start chemo in 2-3 weeks now. I had done alot of research online to see if I could find a little help while i'm waiting for chemo I ran across a ingredient called graviola which seems to be toxic to colon cancer cell it is in a supplement callled "tumeral" it also contains ellagic acid ,coral calcium,cats claw,grape seed extract as well as green tea extract. Ii don't know if it is helping for sure as I have not been tested again but at least I feel like I am doing something while I am sitting here healing up. What is everybody else taking? Any opinions would be appreciated.

Joe
