Subject: RE: cancer and diet are related

I keep running across references to using a ketogenic diet in conjunction with conventional cancer therapy. Some clinics are using it now and there is also research aimed at a ketogenic diet and intermittant fasting regime in conjunction to conventional therapy.

The idea is that some cancers do poorly on ketones and grow like gangbusters on glucose. By stressing the cancer cells through diet they are more susceptable to conventional cancer therapy.

There is also significant research linking insulin resistance and cancer.

What we eat or don't eat concerning many metabolic diseases may be more important than we previously have thought.

Valter Longo is the one doing the research on fasting and chemo/radiation.

He did a study with rats, yes I know they are not humans, one group was fed normal the other group was put in a fasted state. He gave the rats 5x normal dose of chemo, normal fed rats all died. The fasted group all lived and were cancer free. This study is still on going, but showed so much promise that there are now Dr’s that are having amazing results by having patients fast for 48-72 hours prior to chemo and 24 hours after.
