Yep, I have been putting chopped walnuts in my oatmeal each morning for years. We had a diet speaker at our local PC support group. He mentioned walnuts and said Brazil nuts are really good for your health. So, good diet with a portion of nuts will help us but it is not a substitute for medical treatments.

Sophie- after reading your link I think I will ramp up my walnut consumption. I like them anyway.

Same here! I was doing that for a while but have got out of the habit, which is silly since I love them. Although, I have been eating a lot of Pistachio nuts lately. So delicious, but expensive! Hope they are in the group of helpful foods!

Walnuts, wild blueberries, Cheerios, pomegranate extract, and green tea extract. Also, red wine and high cocoa chocolate.

So far, so good. No cancer found on last biopsy.

I'm a skeptic, the cancer is there, but maybe the diet and supplements are slowing/retarding its threat.

My dad has/had one of the best diets I've ever known, and it included many vegetables at every meal along with a healthy dose of nuts but he's been riddled with cancer. He hardly ever drank or cussed.

His bad habits included smoking from 15 to about age 55, as well as owning and operating a paint and body shop (paint fumes). He didn't go to the doctor from age 40 to 60 until he had a pain that turned out to be colon cancer.
