About

The goal of this cross-sectional study is to learn about the effect of a naturopathic-pharmacologic consultation in patients with hematologic conditions. The main question it aims to answer is whether such consultation can improve the safety of dietary and herbal supplements' use among these patients.

Participants will be asked to answer basic questions and fill-out questionnaire before and after meeting the consultation team. Some patients will be prescribed dietary and herbal supplements that may help relief some of the symptoms they describe, in a safe way and without interacting with the drugs they are taking.
