**This post is just my personal experience and is by no means considered a cure for any cancer by me or anyone else.

When I first started chemo (ABVD for Hodgkin's) my mother brought my some of Sunrider's NuPlus herbal food as well as some Quinary and Alpha 20C. I basically just mix the stuff into a smoothy made from frozen fruits, fruit juice, and sometimes yogurt. I also always add one teaspoon of fresh ground golden flax seed. The other product I recommend in the Calli green tea especially if you struggle with constipation brought on by chemo treatments. For those who need probiotics after chemo to restore bowel flora but are lactose intolerant Sunrider offers a product called Vita-Dophilous that has probiotic encased in apple pectin. I have personally taken this when I can't stomach yogurt in my shakes.

They have many other all natural products but NuPlus, Quinary, Alpha 20C, Vita Dophilous and Calli are the only products I can personally testitfy for.

I will admit I was not consistant with taking the product (2 shakes a day min.) until my 3rd treatment and once I was I can definately say my chemo recovery times shortened quite a bit. Since Sunrider products are packed with pre-digestive enzymes it makes it much easier to down the stuff when your nauseated. It is suggested that cancer patients eat the Regular (soy bean free) NuPlus since soy bean products can increase estrogen levels that fuel certain cancer cells.

What I don't like is that Sunrider's marketing scheme is basically a MLM system where you either pay $30/yr to buy direct online or $140 one time to be a "distributor" and get a 40% discount ordering online. These products are also expensive. It costs me $400/mo for the products my wife and I use but I personally believe they are quality products I just wish they had a better way to go about marketing them. Basically I love the products but I'm not really interested in marketing them to others in the "Amway" fashion they try to employ.

Overall I am very interested in hearing from anyone else who has used these products and what their results are. Also, if anyone else decides to try these products please post your personal opinion and results.

In my opinion these are quality of life boosting products and not to be considered quantity of life boosting.

For information just search the word Sunrider on Google since the admins will not allow me to post any links due to forum policy.
