ANTIOXIDANTS EFFECTS IN CANCER SURVIVORS: A SHORT PERSPECTIVE
Journal Title: WORLD JOURNAL PHARMACY AND PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCE - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
There have been intense debates on the use of antioxidants as neoadjuvant therapy or in combination with anti-cancer agents in the treatment of human malignancies. While the safety and effectiveness of commonly used dietary antioxidants have been thoroughly assessed during chemotherapy and radiation therapy in cancer patients, more detailed analysis of their effects are needed to define its potential use in cancer survivors. Here, we summarize the findings of few comprehensive studies that investigated the potential implications of antioxidants in cancer survivors.
