Chemo typically kills off healthy host cells, while also targeting
cancer cells.

I post some of the substances that have been found to help spare your own mitochondria on these forums.

Acetyl Carnitine is the most readily available. The studies used 2 grams a day for the most part, in divided doses.

Also discuss with your doctor, as he/she may have a routine to minimize the toxic effects. You have to push for this with some doctors.

Also cancer can raise proteins in the blood...these clog up the small blood vessels and impair circulation in the hands and feet. You can have the doctor test for gammopathies, and see if this is adding to your PN problem.
