It's a good idea to google Dr. Thomas Seyfried and become familiar with his approach to cancer.
Consists of a water fast, about 5-10 days, followed by a calorie restricted, only 400-500 calorie, high fat, low
carb, moderate protein ketogenic diet. Starves cancer cells of their fuel, glucose, while generationg
ketones which fuel normal cells. So, cancer cells die and tumors shrink. For glutamine dependent cancers,
he may have another approach.
Problem with a lot of ketogenic diets that I have read about is that they are not sufficiently low calorie,
and they allow too high a level of carbs. This continues to fuel the cancer, and the body cannot produce a high
enough level of ketones. The fast and diet have to be done correctly to have a chance at tumor shrinkage
and possible dissapearance of the cancer. The energy level of the cancer has to be turned down.
