A member asked:
My daughter were diagnosed of lymphoma.can she take multivitamin?or what vitamins can she take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
YES- but controversy: This depends to some degree on what treatment she is doing. Many oncologists (incorrectly) believe that vitamins can interfere with chemotherapy & radiation, but a large body of research shows that not only does it not interfere but actually reduces side effects while improving effectiveness.
