Do you know if there is any summary showing which of these substances have some clinical evidence for effect against cancer?

I have been taking the low-dose Naltrexone listed in this article for the last 7 weeks to see if it can improve the PC treatment radiation side effects I am still experiencing plus maybe reduce some arthritis in my fingers, since some people believe it acts as an anti-inflammatory agent. So far it has done absolutely nothing for me I am sorry to say. Supposedly it can take 8 to 10 weeks to start working, so I'm going to keep taking it for a while longer, but I'm not optimistic at this point. Oh, and I had to quit taking it at night because I started having unpleasant dreams. That's one effect it does have for me, but I wouldn't characterize that as beneficial. Just one person's experience I guess. 🦊

Stick it out if you’ve already done seven weeks! I’ve taken it nightly for 8 yrs. vivid dreams indeed!
