Hi all,
I thought it would be useful to highlight that Liz O’Riordan (the breast surgeon who has had breast cancer) has posted a link to a short film on her Twitter (X) account. It is mostly about how Turmeric supplements interfere with Tamoxifen and stop it from working. Viewers comments reveal that some people were told this by their oncologists. I just thought to mention it, just in case someone doesn’t know. X
Hi Cloudier
Thank you for sharing this.
During my own cancer treatment I was always told not to take any supplements, vitamins, unprescribed medication without first running it by my consultant/CNS. Always better to be safe as there can be interactions that can be unexpected.
