      One more topic from me this morning 🙂

      I know QUACKERY isn't really appreciated on these pages, and many of the alternative treatments I've found on the web are labelled as just that on sites like cancer.gov. However, the only one so far where cancer.gov but also Sloan Kettering are actually fairly positive about is Zyflamend (called Zyflamax in Europe). It's a mix of tumeric/curcuma and 9 other herbs/spices and Sloan Kettering has actually conducted several studies on it – surprisingly. They now say "Zyflamend may have additive effects" to chemo. And there is a recent article on melanoma as well: http://www.agt-info.org/Documents/2014%20Annual%20Meeting/HANDOUT%20Yo%20-%20Student%20Research%20Award.pdf

      Anyone here with experience using this for melanoma?I didn't come up in the search.
