Because the FDA does not regulate alternative medicine, it’s hard to know whether supplements are safe or effective. Some may contain contaminants. Plus, Chinese healing herbs for breast cancer generally have not been tested for interactions with other treatments, medications or foods. It’s important to exercise caution when utilizing Chinese healing herbs for breast cancer. Always see a reputable Chinese practitioner before beginning treatment, and inform your conventional medical team about any and all supplements, herbs or botanical treatments you are taking.
