Dr. Joanna Budwig of Germany is a leading expert on essential fatty acid nutrition and has built an international
reputation for treating cancer and other degenerative diseases with Flaxseed Oil.12 A major study demonstrated
that the combination of high dose antioxidants with essential fatty acids (including alpha-linolenic acid) was able to
halt the further progression of breast cancer in a group of 32 affected women, with spread of their condition to the
axillary lymph nodes. Supplementation was initiated as an adjustment to standard breast cancer treatment.13
