Hello,

A good family friend of mine has found out she has cervical cancer. The primary cancer is in the cervix with a secondary one in her leg. I straight away started doing some research on the net and found alot of positive info on Zeolite.....but then of course, also found some warnings against the product. I've been overloaded with information and would just like to know if anyone has any advice or wants to share their experiences.

Thank you.

Hi nay27,

I am very sorry about your friend's cervical cancer. I have moved your post to the cervical cancer forum because you might get better information here.

Even on the CancerForums you will get different opinions about Zeolite. Here is what no one disagrees about: Zeolite is a form of alternative medicine used as a nutritional supplement. It has not received FDA approval for treating cancer of any kind.

From those two points of agreement, people will argue one way or the other. My own bias is toward scientifically proven, standard western medicine. If your friend wants to use Zeolite, have her do it under medical supervision and only as a supplement to other proven forms of chemotherapy.

Best regards to you and your friend.

Hi nay27,

I'm so sorry about your friend. I totally agree with Jim-brainman. It is a mixed feeling with it. I guess she has to decide what she wants to do herself.
I myself would stick with western medicine. I would go for all and anything I could do to fight this thing.

It's good to she she has someone fighting with her, your a good friend to be looking at all the options etc.

What has her specialist advised?

I too have/had suffered with cerivcal cancer - not to her degree though. Click on my linc below for a better look at my story.

thinking of you both.

Hello.

She's staying positive. No news yet though. She is waiting to have a PET scan done.

Thanks for your support!
