Summary
The investigators hypothesize that GuaranĂ¡, a native plant from the Amazon, might improve
chemotherapy-induced fatigue in breast cancer patients undergoing treatment. In order to
assess this, the investigators randomized patients to either guaranĂ¡ extract or to placebo,
switching the assigned treatment mid-term through the cycles of Chemotherapy.
