Did doctors at Sloan-Kettering hesitate to cite a naturopathic original source in their paper?

“Some of the nation’s top cancer researchers have rediscovered what a Seattle naturopathic physician, Dr. Dan Labriola, reported more than half a decade ago — that it can be dangerous to combine some cancer therapies and certain natural supplements.

Scientists at the prestigious Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City reported this week in the journal of the American Cancer Society that the use of anti-oxidant supplements such as vitamins C and E could significantly undermine the effectiveness of common chemotherapeutic agents . . .

. . . Labriola, once largely ignored by the medical mainstream and then castigated by his naturopathic colleagues for warning against anti-oxidant use by cancer patients, is slowly finding vindication and respect for his “evidence-based” approach to alternative therapies.”
