The best food for cancer survival. What kind of diet should cancer patients eat?
My forthcoming book is How Not to Age, and then my next will be on cancer survival. Even if I work on it full-time, I don’t expect my cancer survival book to be out until 2025 at the earliest. In the meanwhile, I must have hundreds of videos on cancer available now. Here are a few to get you started, and, if you want to see them all, check out the cancer topic page (nutritionfacts.org/topics/can...
• How Not to Die from Cancer (nutritionfacts.org/video/how-...)
• What Causes Cancer to Metastasize? (nutritionfacts.org/video/what...)

That graph half way through this video was worth a pause to digest how prevalent some of the bad lifestyle choices are.

Waiting outside a grocery store yesterday, it was so sad and depressing to see numerous morbidly obese people just casually going in and out. “Old” people (but not that old!) having to use the go karts, canes. Just slightly overweight people, but out of shape. Just a picture (I know, just what I can observe with my eyes) of poor health. Then, my friend, who has asthma and whom I was sharing a video with about asthma and nutrition, comes out with just bags of bad stuff…milk, dairy, eggs, meat, processed foods, etc. 🤦🏽‍♂️ It is so very very depressing.

Rather than milk proteins, you can try fresh fruit/veg juice. There are many cancer survivors who were against it and tried with fresh plant juices and recoverd.

Dear Dr. Greger, in "Adherence to a Mediterranean Diet and Risk of Cancer", in the abstract, it says: "Among cancer survivors, the association between the adherence to the highest MedD category and risk of cancer mortality, and cancer recurrence was not statistically significant." also, the first snippet you showed, "The highest adherence score to a MedD was inversely associated with a lower risk of cancer mortality (RRcohort: 0.86, 95% CI 0.81 to 0.91, I2 = 82%; n = 14 studies)" has a very high l2 score of 82%. How do you interpret this?

From the 2015 BMC article, "Oxalate induces breast cancer" Not risk, or maybe, or might or it could - "but all." "We measured oxalate concentration in both human breast tumor tissues and adjoining non-pathological breast tissues. We found that all tested breast tumor tissues contain a higher concentration of oxalates than their counterpart non-pathological breast tissue." Check your diet carefully.

"Co-consumption of Vegetables and Fruit, Whole Grains, and Fiber Reduces the Cancer Risk of Red and Processed Meat in a Large Prospective Cohort of Adults from Alberta’s Tomorrow Project" People eating the most unprocessd red meat (over 500g per week) had 22% less cancer than those eating the least amounts of red meat (like vegetarians and vegans do) when both groups ate plenty of plants(something like 5 or 6 servings per day of fruits and vegetables). So if we value other observational studies should we also value that one and draw the conclusion that vegans should add 500g or more unprocessed red meat to their diet to reduce their cancer risk by 22% ?

@JoshuaRoevear Жыл бұрын

You guys, I want everyone to see what intellectual dishonesty looks like. What the study actually concluded was: "Our findings demonstrate that consumption of foods rich in fiber, antioxidants, phytochemicals, calcium, and other nutrients, found in vegetables and fruit, whole grains, and pulses, may have the potential to mitigate the carcinogenic effects of red and processed meat, particularly at lower and moderate-but not at higher-levels of meat intake." Essentially, those eating large amounts of meat were not able to mitigate their cancer risk by eating plants. It's so dishonest to say that the authors concluded that in order to mitigate the risk of cancer, one should be eating large amounts of red meat. Ok, you go ahead and proceed with the ad hominem attacks.

@cyberfunk3793 Жыл бұрын

@@JoshuaRoevear Intellectual dishonesty? Can you read the actual data form table 2 and tell me who had the lowest cancer risk among the people that ate the most plants? Was it those that also ate most red meats or those that ate the least like vegetarians? The hazard ratio for people eating the most red meat is 0.78 compared to the 1.0 for the ones eating the least red meat. Can you explain what does that mean or are you intellectually too dishonest?

@JoshuaRoevear Жыл бұрын

@@cyberfunk3793 The authors clearly state that plants "may have the potential to mitigate the carcinogenic effects of red and processed meat, particularly at lower and moderate-BUT NOT AT HIGHER-LEVELS OF MEAT INTAKE." So clearly your interpretation of the data is wrong. You're being dishonest, because you're making the claim that meat eaters have less cancer risk than vegetarians and vegans, which couldn't be further from the truth.
