Encer is a homeopathic remedy marketed by HC Supplement Solutions, LLC, for the management of cancer treatment-related fatigue (CTRF), a type of cancer-related fatigue and common side effect experienced by individuals undergoing cancer therapies such as chemotherapy and radiation.[1] Encer is promoted as a supportive supplement to help alleviate fatigue and improve energy levels in cancer patients and survivors.
Dr. Yakov Freed
Dr. Yakov Freed[2], a medical doctor and founder of HC Supplement Solutions, LLC, developed Encer. He has been a practicing physician since 1997, when he established Dr. Freed Clinics LTD in Hod HaSharon, Israel, focusing on integrative health solutions. Since October 2015, he has served as a lecturer at the Sackler School of Medicine in Tel Aviv, Israel. Dr. Freed also held the position of Head of the Integrative Oncological Unit at Tel Aviv Medical Center from December 2020 to June 2022 and worked as a medical doctor at the Institute of Oncology Cancer Center at Sheba Medical Center from June 2014 to July 2018.
History
Encer was launched by HC Supplement Solutions, LLC, as a homeopathic remedy targeting cancer treatment-related fatigue.[3] Dr. Yakov Freed’s development of Encer was inspired by his father’s struggle with debilitating fatigue[4] during prostate cancer chemotherapy, which limited his ability to engage in daily activities. This personal experience prompted Dr. Freed to research homeopathic combinations to address CTRF, leading to Encer’s formulation, named as a tribute to his father’s resilience and intended to support energy and mental clarity in cancer patients.
The product gained commercial attention through promotional campaigns, including recognition of Cancer-Related Fatigue Awareness Month in December, as noted in a 2024 press release[1]. Encer has been marketed as a “comprehensive” solution for CTRF.[5]
Collaborations
Encer has been promoted through collaborations with notable figures in media and integrative medicine:
- Dr. Phil: In April 2025, Encer was featured on an episode[6] of Dr. Phil, where integrative medicine specialist and Encer spokesperson Dr. Pina LoGiudice discussed its use in helping cancer survivors like fitness professional Amanda Butler regain energy. The segment, sponsored by Encer, highlighted its potential to support energy during and after cancer treatment.
- Dr. Drew’s Health Uncensored: Encer was showcased in a 2025 episode[7] of Health Uncensored with Dr. Drew. The segment explored Encer’s role in managing CTRF, aligning with the show’s focus on alternative health solutions. Both Amanda Butler and Dr. Pina were physically present for this collaboration.
- Dr. Pina LoGiudice: Dr. LoGiudice, a naturopathic physician and co-founder of Inner Source Health, has served as a key spokesperson for Encer. Her background in naturopathic medicine, as detailed by the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians, includes extensive work in integrative health, making her a prominent advocate for the product.

Composition and Uses
Encer is prepared according to homeopathic principles, involving serial dilution and succussion (vigorous shaking) of its active ingredients. The specific ingredients include treated versions of Cadmium sulphuratum, Carbo animalis, Phosphoricum acidum, and Radium bromatum. The remedy is available as an oral supplement, sold through the official website and platforms like Amazon.
Purpose
Encer is marketed to alleviate cancer treatment-related fatigue, a debilitating condition affecting many cancer patients during and after treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery. Promotional materials claim that over the course of one-to-two months, Encer supports energy levels, enhances quality of life, and helps patients “reclaim their lives.” It is meant to be taken twice a day in six-hour intervals, and claims to have no side effects or counterproductive interactions with other medications. The product is positioned as a complementary approach, not a replacement for conventional medical treatments.
Scientific Evaluation
One of Dr. Yakov Freed's primary cornerstones for his creation of Encer was a study he conducted in Tel-Aviv titled "Attention Dysregulation in Breast Cancer Patients Following a Complementary Alternative Treatment Routine: A Double-Blind Randomized Trial"[8]. This was published in the Integrative Cancer Therapies journal. There, it was observed that the placebo group experienced a 15% decrease in cognitive performance during radiotherapy whereas the group that took Encer a 15% increase in cognitive performance during the same period.
Regulation and Safety
Encer is manufactured in OHM Pharma[9], a Texas-based medicinal production facility approved by the FDA.
Cultural and Commercial Aspects
Encer has gained visibility through media campaigns and endorsements by figures like Dr. Phil and Dr. Drew, contributing to its commercial presence in the alternative medicine market. The product is widely available online, with marketing emphasizing its accessibility and appeal to cancer patients seeking non-pharmacological options. Approximately one-third of cancer patients use complementary and alternative medicines (CAM), including homeopathy, to manage treatment side effects like fatigue, reflecting Encer’s appeal within this demographic.
