Protocel for brain tumors?

My 34 year old husband had a brain tumor removed from his temporal lobe in July 08. They were able to remove all of the visible tumor. The doctor said the biopsy shows it is between a grade I and grade II astrocytoma (leaning more towards a II) They recommended a wait and see approach. They said this type of tumor often recurs, but chemo and radiation risks outweigh the benefits at this point. Has anyone had success with Protocel? Any advice on how long he should take it since the tumor has not returned yet (hopefully it never will!!!) Thank you so much for any advice or information.

I know someone who has been using Protocel for a month or more. If her next scans come back with improvement, I'll post it here for you. She has done conventional treatment in the past, but is taking a break and trying something else at the moment. She has had a lot of residual health problems from the chemo, as well as side effects using the Protocel.

My husband had a cancerous brain tumor and did all the conventional treatments- surgery, chemo and radiation. When it came back, and there was nothing else to do, a friend found out about Protocel. He tried it since there was nothing else to do. The tumor actually reduced in size for several months. Then we stopped to try another nutritional supplement( don't know why we did that) and then the tumor came back in full force. Of course, all the effects of the steriods the doctors had him on started taking their toll also. He died mostly from the side effects of steriods.(diabetes, osteoporosis, swelling, blood clots, cataracts etc)

I'm sure if we'd found Protocel before doing all the radiation and chemo, it would have saved his life.
