review · Frontiers in Nutrition
According to this review, the use of antioxidant supplements can benefit tumor cells in the same manner as they do for normal cells. Therefore, oncologists should advise not to take antioxidant supplements during chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Future research including potential clinical and preclinical trials, mechanistic studies, and exploration of different vitamin and mineral supplement studies are required to uncover the complete potential of antioxidant supplements for cancer treatment or determine their safety and effectiveness when used alongside standard cancer treatments. Furthermore, the results of this review could be used for future systematic review of therapeutic controversies over use of antioxidant supplements during cancer treatment.
