If you're past menopause and diagnosed with breast cancer, chances are that chemotherapy will have little or no effect on the cancer. That's because the great majority of breast cancer tumors in postmenopausal women are estrogen driven - also known as estrogen receptor-positive tumors.
Tamoxifen, a synthetic hormone-like drug that prevents estrogen from binding to breast cancer cells. In estrogen driven breast tumors, tamoxifen has been shown to be far more effective than chemo, even in cases where the cancer has spread to lymph nodes.
Now there's even better news: A natural agent may improve the effectiveness of tamoxifen, and just might out-perform tamoxifen when used on its own.
Good Coverage A new study that tested the effects of Avemar (a fermented wheat germ extract) on breast cancer. Previous research has shown that Avemar helps the immune system identify cancer cells, cuts off the energy supply to cancer cells, speeds cancer cell death, and reduces the risk of cancer recurrence.
