Oncovite Dose
Yes, the dose for bladder tumor patients is 4 a day. While the
preparation is all "good vitamins", you can have too much of a good thing.
It is important that anyone who might become pregnant not take Oncovite.
The vitamin A in it causes differentiation or maturation of cells. This
is good when treating cancer, but bad when making babies.
He might also add Selenium 200 ug a day. Other lifestyle and diet aspects
can also be helpful, and I like to try to stack the cards all in the
patients' favor. He obviously has a supportive wife- enjoy your time
together and support one another. Exercise, particularly aerobic exercise
up to the point that it is still somewhat "fun" is helpful. Fruits and
vegetables, and particularly fruit, is beneficial in reducing the risk of
bladder cancer. Pomegranate and garlic (not together! yuck) has shown
some specific anticancer effects.
Thanks for asking and good luck,
Don Lamm, MD
So I am now fairly glowing with Vitamins, Selenium, Garlic, Green Tea, and I’m about to become a pomegranate head! (All I really want are some of those Mickey Dee’s Frenchie Fries!) Oh well!
Also HAPPY B’DAY Patricia!!
