A 44-year old breast cancer survivor in Britain revealed that she chose to follow a special low fat diet which included curry spices in order to battle the cancer instead of taking medication.
Plymouth resident Vicky Sewart is currently the focus of a research project that is looking into ways that lifestyle can influence breast cancer. Sewart said that she opted to follow a diet containing "superfoods", such as turmeric, which she claimed forced the cancer cells to "commit suicide".
Sewart underwent a surgery to remove a breast and lymph node in June 2008 but instead of taking Tamoxifen drug during remission, she told doctors that she would use her diet as an anti cancer drug as she was concerned about the side effects of taking Tamoxifen.
