Description

Thanks to earlier detection and much better treatment options, cancer today is more survivable than ever. But we are still a long way from curing cancer across the board for all types of cancer with equal outcomes. If you caught my podcast from several episodes back on improving cancer survival with diet and lifestyle choices, I covered the broad lifestyle habits linked with improving cancer survival odds. I also touched briefly on many of the so-called ‘cancer cure’ diets that abound on the Internet. So, for this podcast, I’m going to home in on one that is getting a lot of attention: and that’s the ketogenic diet.Links referred to in the podcastPreclinical and clinical evidence for a ketogenic diet in cancer https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31399389Systematic review of the use of ketogenic diets in people with cancer https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10238-021-00710-2Fasting as an adjunct to cancer treatment https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33271979Episode transcriptTo access the full episode transcript, go to the following link and select the individual podcast episode and then click on the ‘Transcript’ tab https://thinkingnutrition.buzzsprout.comConnect with meInstagram: doctimcroweFacebook: Thinking NutritionTwitter: CroweTim
