This is a difficult question.

I think you have to defer to your doctors. Some nutrients are very dubious with cancer. This is because cancer cells need to divide rapidly and so they use nutrients to accomplish this.

Folate is one that has been documented being connected to various cancer growths. (colon cancers)

You will have to seek out dieticians and or an integrative doctor to see what you can and cannot do. You will need the names of the chemo drugs, and research them as well.

Most chemo drugs do cause neuropathies as well.

This poster has posted many links over the past months about chemo treatments and supplements:

I'd suggest you read some of those posts.

You are in a tough spot. I am sure all here will agree with me in wishing you a safe journey thru this serious development in your health.
