Guaraná for Radiation Related Fatigue in Breast Cancer Patients
RandomizedCrossoverTriple-blindTreatment
Summary
We hypothesize that Guaraná, a native plant from the Amazon, might improve radiation-induced fatigue in breast cancer patients undergoing treatment. In order to assess this, we randomized patients to either guaraná extract or to placebo, switching the assigned treatment mid-term through the radiation.
