Based on initial findings; Flax Seed Oil was tested with multiple chemotheraputics to determine the effectiveness in comparison to the chemotherapy treatment alone. Taxol and Flax have the most effective treatment combination in comparison to other drugs. This combination promotes apoptosis and at high doses the combination promotes necrosis.
