How much faster do vitamins make a breast tumor grow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No faster!: Vitamins don't speed up a breast tumor's growth. I can understand why you might think that's true, but studies have shown it's not. Some chemotherapy works by inhibiting certain vitamins (ie folate), but there is no scientific evidence showing that vitamins increase breast cancer growth.
