I wish she wasn't going so crazy on the supplements (especially those cheapy looking ones that are full of filler), and I hope that she detoxes the rest of her life i.e. stops wearing makeup, ditches the chemicals in the bathroom/kitchen.

Good on her though. It is a really brave decision, especially when most people will be shouting her down for it. Best of luck to her.

What kelly might not be aware of is all the petro-chemicals, terpentine and coal tar that is in those synthetic supplements. The question is, are these supplements also contributing to the cancer?

Now...there is another problem, and possibly a BIG one. These synthetic vitamins won't have the vitamin co-factors which make the vitamins so powerful, and one of the largest peer reviewed double blind studies ever done in history showed that vitamin supplementation can contribute to cancer,and in this massive study it showed supplementing high doses of synethetic beta carotene made lung cancer worse. Why? Because beta carotene has no effect on helping lung cancer where-as alfa carotene does, and given that the supplements used would have likely has terpentine and petro-chemicals which probably wouldn'thave helped the cancer situation. In actual fact, the study found that 67% of people's health in the study (around 200,000 people) got worse when supplementing synthetics.

Peoplemay argue that alfa corotene and other vitamin co-factors may not be as powerful as the main vitamin put into formulations, but these vitamins work much better in synergy with each other. Besides, various co factors work better on some things than the main vitamin.

The ideas on synthetic vitamin supplementation is very messed up thinking and high doses should only be available through specialist supervision because having high doses of something can make one deficient in other nutrients, so one needs testing and supervision from a health professional to get it right. Selling synthetic vitamin supplements over the counter is pure evil.
