Janet - Do you think that there needs to be a more nuanced approach to the nutritional treatment of cancer? Is cancer too large a term, covering too many somewhat disparate problems that all get linked under the one name? I happen to believe that eating a ketogenic diet is a healthy way to eat but does that mean it is equally beneficial for all people diagnosed with cancer? One of the reasons I ask is that the doctors who are treating my granddaughter say that they have been unable to find any kind of trigger for Ewings Sarcoma, toxins in the environment, nutrition, genetics, none of them pan out. It leaves me puzzled. I do wish that Alice would eat a low carb diet but my advice would not be welcome. She isn't eating junk and given her lack of appetite you would have to be pretty committed to stick with a ketogenic diet. Still I wonder about it all, not that there is anything I can do about it.
