  I have colon cancer stage 2. Now under Chemo. I read lots of paper and they said that cancer thrive on acid condition.

  Thank you everyone for your advice. By the way, what kind of supplements I should take to support my body during chemo? my doctor only give B1, B6 and Philorpa-s ( to protect my liver) What else should I consider taking? some people I saw take Selenium and vitamin C as well. Should I take those as well?
