Question 10

How does NutriLiv decide which ingredients to exclude?

Accepted Answer

During your survey, you provide your cancer type, sub-type, treatments, and medications. NutriLiv cross-references this information against peer-reviewed research to identify ingredients that may interfere with your specific treatment or be contraindicated for your cancer type. These ingredients are automatically removed from every recipe, tea, juice elixir, and supplement recommendation in your plan.

What are NutriLiv Points?

Every recipe in NutriLiv has a NutriLiv Points value calculated from the combined anticancer evidence behind its ingredients. When you log meals, the app tracks your daily and historical NutriLiv Points, plus a breakdown of the specific anticancer capabilities you are consuming, such as immune support, anti-angiogenesis, cancer stem cell targeting, and metabolic pathway disruption. NutriLiv Points help you see how your diet is contributing to your fight over time.

Question 12

Can I see the research behind each ingredient?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every recipe includes an anticancer summary showing which ingredients have documented anticancer capabilities. Tap any ingredient to see its full profile, including anticancer functions, health-optimizing properties, evidence of reducing treatment side effects, evidence of enhancing treatment efficacy, and links to every peer-reviewed study used in the analysis.

Question 13

Can I use NutriLiv if I follow a specific diet?

Accepted Answer
