Can a cancer patient use herbal life shakes ?

It should be fine!: Make sure to check with your radiation oncologist if you are receiving radiation. The level of anti-oxidant (Vitamin A,C,E,selenium and Co-Q 10 could be high)

Yes you can: But herbal life shakes are not likely to help you in controlling the cancer. tell us about your cancer...what type and stage is it? Are you taking conventional treatment or not?
