Pterostilbene
I just tried to reorder some Pterostilbene from Life Extension and they said that they no longer stock it. Can someone tell me another company that sells it and that is reputable?
Thanks,

New to GBM. 63 y/o Male. Here's my cocktail base plan. Thoughts?
Hi All -
First let me thank you for this board, for your posts and stories, and for your inspiration in a time of such devastation. My father was diagnosed with a stage 4 GBM on Tuesday. It's in his frontal left lobe and impairing speech and some basic memory, but nothing else. Were getting second opinions on surgical options tomorrow and again hopefully Tuesday. First NS said no. I was in shock (diagnosis time) and didn't know enough questions to ask.
I now want him to take everything I can to help. His vitals, heart, kidneys, liver etc are all excellent. He's very fit, non-smoker/drinker. He is on board with whatever I suggest and will cooperate. He is reading Ben William's book but cannot actively participate in boards like this as his brain is impaired. Typing and thinking of words is severely impacted. My mother is a retired RN and will monitor blood pressure daily and blood glucose should we incorporate DCA or Metformin. That said, two scientists in my extended family rejected my suggestions and instead pushed the 'clinical trial' route - which I believe benefits the greater good of mankind in the long term but does nothing for the subjects. It's hard not to be discouraged by their emails of 'concern'. I believe they would have a different opinion were it their loved one. I've been following BW and Rich's doses from the cancer compass board as a starting point but unfortunately my background is in IT and not science. Here's what I want to give dad. Am I overlooking a drug/supplement that is crucial? Unfortunately I don't know the MGMT status or IDH1 gene status. I plan to ask tomorrow. Any suggested edits? So far he is tolerating everything I've thrown at him.
