Hi,

Just a quickie, my friend is taking green tea tablets and has really helped her with weightloss, am on tam and zoladex and was wondering if these are allowed or if anyone has tried them and they help with weightloss?

Thanks,

Hi Mairead

It’s always recommended that you should check with your medical team prior to taking anything when having treatments for breast cancer in case there’s a possible interactions. You may find our DVD about healthy eating, diet and exercise useful to take a look at, you can order a copy via this link:

Hi!

Now that I have finished my treatment I am taking green tea tablets as they are a wonderful antioxidant and mop up “rogue” cells. I had no idea that they are any use for weight loss - I certainly haven’t noticed anything happening in that department! I don’t know if it’s okay to take them with other drugs - but I take a lot of supplements and haven’t found any problems.
