Summary
You came out of treatment and you did what any responsible, motivated woman would do — you started researching. Supplements, diets, protocols, Facebook groups, podcasts. You built a list. And every single thing on that list had worked for someone. Just not necessarily for you. Because here's what nobody said out loud: most anticancer advice online is someone else's prescription.
