Thank you, I am becoming a firm believer in a healthy diet.
To bad I didn't think this years ago. I am trying to avoid any processed foods, or anything that comes in a box and can be 'nuked'.

I think diet is the key, along with modern medicine. Wife had breast and liver cancer. She changed her diet to no sugar, no wheat, no dairy, no preservatives and there was no sign of cancer(HER2+) in scans after the 2nd and 4th chemo sessions from a fairly high grade. How much was due to diet and how much the medicine no one knows?. I do know her cancer doctor has started eating this diet which should count for something. She also ate a diet rich in foods that inhibit blood vessel growth, something else that cancer needs. This is mainly berries and vegetables. To sum it up we eat grass fed beef, free range antibiotic free chicken and eggs, cold water fish (but Japan worries us), nuts, olive and coconut oil, spices,, all kinds of fruits and vegetables. We sparingly use almond, coconut, tapioca flours. We try to add fresh curcumin, ginger and garlic to anything we can. You can actually eat really well under this diet but it takes work to prepare and large volumes could be needed depending on caloric needs.

I'd suggest that the results where mainly down to her chemo.
Why do I suggest that?
Probably because of all the evidence showing the effectiveness of chemo for specific cancers.
Why don't I suggest it was the diet?
Probably because of the lack of evidence showing its effectiveness for any cancers.
