I will watch them. I also have been checking in with MSKCC Integrative Medicine before using any complementary therapies/herbals, as I, too, was treated at and am being followed by MSKCC.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03539720825065850496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4377218771506051065.post-82847139659666901612010-03-10T16:29:25.353-06:002010-03-10T16:29:25.353-06:00Hi Esther,

I came across your most recent pos...Dear Carolyn,<br /> <br />I came across your most recent post on herbs and botanicals and as an employee of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, I appreciate your linking to our series of videos "Understanding Herbs and Botanicals in Survivorship." Given your topic, I thought it would also be useful for your readers to know about the "About Herbs" section of our web site, which offers evidence-based information about herbs, botanicals, supplements, etc., including purported uses, warnings, side effects, and scientific literature about the particular agent. Here is the link: www.mskcc.org/aboutherbs. <br /><br />As you indicated, many of these substances can make cancer treatment ineffective or interact with it in a way that causes the patient harm, so people should always check with their oncologist before taking anything outside of what their doctor has prescribed.<br /> <br />Best regards,<br />-EstherEstherMSKCCnoreply@blogger.com
