Have Stage 1 Mucinous Ovarian Cancer. Overweight. Is Herbalite Safe To Use?

default
Posted on Fri, 6 Jul 2012
Question: Several years ago I had Stage 1a mucinous ovarian cancer. I am approximately 75 pounds overweight and having difficulty loosing the weight. Is herbalife safe to use for someone who has had cancer? Because of the cancer I do not take any type of hormone replacement. I am not sure if herbalife contains any type of ingredient that would effect my hormones or increase my risk of cancer reoccurence.
