My friend has stage 4 leukemia and it has started to attack her heart and lungs. nothing has worked. is it safe to try the graviola juice?

No: It may interfere with the chemotherapy, and can be toxic. Also avoid antioxidants, as they can negate the effects of the chemotherapy. She should ask her doctor before taking any alternative therapies.

Sad: So sorry to hear about your friend. I'd say, "what does she have to lose?" the most important thing for her now is that you're there - which tells her that you care.
