Taking multivitamins does not appear to be beneficial to patients during and after post-surgical chemotherapy for stage III colon cancer, U.S. researchers find.
The study, published online ahead of print issue of the Journal of Clinical Oncology, finds multivitamin use did not appear to have any beneficial effect on patients’ outcomes but did not have a detrimental effect.
First author Dr. Kimmie Ng, a gastrointestinal oncologist at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, says despite conflicting evidence on the efficacy of multivitamins to reduce cancer risk and death, studies suggest approximately 30 percent of Americans take multivitamins — but among cancer survivors, between 26 percent and 77 percent report using multivitamins.
“With such a high proportion of cancer patients utilizing multivitamin supplements in the belief that it will help them fight their cancer, we felt it was important to really examine the data to see what impact multivitamins had on cancer recurrence and survival,” Ng says in a statement.
The researchers asked 1,038 patients to complete a survey. Nearly half responded they used multivitamins during chemotherapy. Of the 810 cancer-free patients who completed the survey six months after chemotherapy, more than half reported multivitamin use.

Captcha is certainly one of the very best ways against auto bot registration but xrumer will destory it with is amazing power. One of the most frequent spam behavior is auto account registration on forums e.g Xrumer. These bots intend to post advertising messages with out manual control and so so quite successfully with xrumer. Tools like Xrumer are dedicated for this purpose. Thus, you’ll be able to set up captcha against bot registration. Alternatively, setting up anti-spam questions that appear randomly will also be useful but it real wont work mainly because xrumer is king. Xrumer 🙂
