Leonard,
Both resveratrol and curcumin are wonderful cancer-fighting tools,
but you don't use a screwdriver to pull a nail. The citation is a
great example of why you don't use the kitchen sink approach to
fighting cancer....
A common mistake is to OVERREAD the citation. I don't know of anyone who became a cesspool of microbial pathogens because of using
curcumin or resveratrol. On the other hand, if you have a persistent infection then you might consider dropping this particular whole family of natural meds from your protocol until you sort things out.
To answer your question about flax seed oil: if you are using flax
oil as an immune therapy (and it is a corrective therapy) then you
might want to consider using it without the lignin because of the
probable immune-inhibiting properties of any ferulate. If you are
using high-dose flax seed oil as a substrate for a prooxidant or free radical approach then you might want to drop the lignin in favor of, say, a ferric-nitrilo strategy.

These are RARELY black-white issues and the lazy human mind loves to
think in black and white issues. We are talking about probable
additive or subtractive effects. I have seen many people use
high-lignin flax seed oil and they did just fine.
