I am a doctor myself and have cancer, I keep having funny looks from my colleagues when I tell them I am on keto and IF. Doctors are so conservative that they wouldn’t recommend anything unless there is 100% evidence about it. They are also wary of potential risks and uncertainties. Thanks for posting such informative and supportive videos, they really help ❤
Even if there is 100 percent evidence about it, doctors will stay in their old ways. One does not challenge medical consensus (even if it's totally wrong).
I wish I knew about carnivore when I was having chemo 10 years ago for lymphoma. The chemo hugely aggravated my Crohn's and made it much worse, carnivore would have helped both
What Dr Greger doesn't tell us.....vegans have a much higher incidence of stroke.....I had one while eating vegan on his plan. I have been on a ketogenic diet for 6 months. All blood markers are now normal and I lost 40 pounds. I am now insulin sensitive.
This vegan doctor is a fraud. He's pushing an agenda by being vague and cherry picking information to make it appear keto is unhealthy and veganism is healthy.
They have higher incidence of most diseases, and less of a few, than the average american. Compared to carnivores, they are far worse off in every aspect
Im 9.5 years down the track with breast cancer which was in 16 out of 18 nodes when diagnosed. Ive had two, isolated boney metastases treated a couple of years ago but am currently in remission. My onco seriously thinks my keto diet can take much of the credit for my outcome (so far). Im now following a 2:1 therapeutic ketogenic diet
Very awesome! I repair cancer treatment machines and it is Great to hear from a leader in my field! My Oncologists are either tied behind Nutritionists, or don't understand diet to begin with, mostly tied behind nutritionists, they HAVE to refer to them for hospital liability. Of course, the nutritionist is going with the national recommendations to avoid liability. One thing I have noticed in the last decade within the plant based community, BEANS have really taken a front seat in their teachings. Right along with heart healthy vegetable oils becoming heart healthy plant oils. It's going to be hard to win this fight. I'll take the individual wins, like myself and my best friend(lost 80 pounds and CURED his type2 diabetes!)! Thank you Drs for being brave enough to try! KEEP GOING!!!
My father was being "treated" at a leading hospital in Philadelphia for stage 4 colon cancer. The extent of "dietary advice" in THIS hospital's oncology program consisted of attending a large group of patients meeting with a singular staff "dietician" only ONCE ( although thry may have offered more, my father's wife making the decisions opted for nothing else) I don't know exactly what was recommended, but I know the general recommended diet and I know what followed... 1. they literally served PIZZA AND SODA AT THE MEETING, (THIS was about 2020/ 2021) 2. his wife rejected every single thing I tried to share regarding healthy cooking and food choices 3. The ONLY EMPHASIS by the oncology team, was to INCREASES CALORIES, continuously emphasizing that he needed to keep weight ON SO HE COULD DEAL WITH THE RADIOLOGY AND CHEMO that he would endure for 2 years IT was tortuous and repulsive to witness this level of ignorance in so called "modern science". G-d help the people suffering in the hands of other's like my father did.
One of my best friends died waiting on a heart transplant - but that was after three rounds of chemo and radiation for breast cancer. I've heard that radiation therapy can also increase risk of damage to the heart.
After my brother had chemo and radiation for his non Hodgkin’s lymphoma, he got thyroid cancer 2 months later. I’ve heard that radiation can be linked to thyroid cancer. I wish he had tried keto/IF. His cancer was supposed to be slow growing and he was told originally that it would most likely be years or even decades before he would need chemo. That was in 2019. Fast forward to 2020 and Covid.. they convinced him to get the Covid jab and his cancer escalated within weeks to the point of needing chemo asap. Could be coincidental. But maybe it isn’t. But at this point he has had chemo, radiation, had his thyroid removed, diagnosed as a diabetic and put on more meds for his insulin and of course they gave him an ozempic like drug to help him lose weight. I wish he had a doctor that could have encouraged him to do keto and IF. I’ve lost nearly 100 pounds in less than a year in keto, which is great, but the biggest miracle is that my dad, who was a severe diabetic for decades and on all sorts of shots and pills for it and needed a diabetic specialist doctor to help control it, has now completely reversed his diabetes in keto. He is 100% off his meds. Keto works!
I'm just curious why Westman and this oncologist never talk about Dr. Thomas Seyfried? One of the top scientists in the world on cancer as a metabolic disease.
The problem I have with Dr Seyfried is that he isn’t working with people and there have been no trials. I believe his hypothesis makes sense but he views his approach as the only one. I would never ignore the use of chemo or immunotherapy, etc. but surely metabolism plays an important role.
@mpoharper yes his work is lab based ans his anecdote are in GBM patients. Unfortunately his book and interviews are 50% good content and 50% whining about how under appreciated his is
@@mpoharperchemotherapy only has 7% rate. While 93% do not benefit. People died of the treatment not the cancer itself. That’s why the list death as complications of cancer & not solely cancer
My oncologists are definitely not interested in diet or fasting. I asked about fasting, and my latest specialist flat out said they will not support me fasting 😢
Dr Westman I been following your advice almost to a tee except walnuts and I’m losing 2 pounds per week every Friday I get on the scale for another 2 pound victory. Thank you 🙏 hallelujah God bless you
I have kept my mucosal melanoma slow growing and not metastasizing for several years with immunotherapy and keto. Also exercising daily. Insulin is quite low!! Hurrah
Dr Westman Thank you for your videos and the information you share with all of us My mom just found out that she has stage 4 secondary bone cancer ( from breast cancer) and the advice the doctors are giving her is palliative radio and a hormone pill. I was wondering if there are any medical studies that show the effects of keto diet fighting off such cancers ? Advanced stage Thank You
Interesting. My aunt is in her 90s & still smokes. I do credit her upbringing on a farm where there was less chemicals & much whole food diet. Of course her diet changed when she moved to the city. She does have lung problems & on oxygen. She is 92. My uncle lived until he was 92. He was a smoker, too. He had throat cancer but beat it. He too was on oxygen at the time of his death. He was a WWII vet. They were first cousins. I think people born & grew up in a less industrialized area had a huge advantage over those growing up in the 80s & younger. They ate food from scratch. Less chemicals in products & foods. I do agree metabolism is a big part of the puzzle. Neither of my parents are smokers but the environment they live isn’t the same as my uncle who lived in a small town & my aunt who lived half her life on a farm.
My mom suffered with all the cancer treatments and complications for 3 years. She didn't follow any special diet as she was in the hospital for long stretches and the hospital foods were horrible. As weakness became a serious problem very quickly, I can't see how a plant based diet would have prevented the loss of muscle and strength she experienced. Sure its possible to build muscle and strength on a vegan diet, but when you are going through chemotherapy and don't have an appetite and food isn't staying down 100% then it would be very difficult to eat enough plant proteins to prevent muscle loss.
This interview with Dr Christy is a mixed bag. We know that an animal based keto diet is often an accelerator of the cancer process since animal based protein is a strong stimulator of IGF-1 and leptin which drives cellular division. Animal based proteins also stimulate a fair insulin response. The late/great Dr Nicholas Gonzalez successfully treated the majority of his cancer patients with a high carb plant based diet while his friend, Dr Atkins shut down his cancer clinic after 10 years, admitting that he was unable to save nearly anyone using the keto/animal based Atkins diet. While cancer tends to prefer glucose it can also use colesterol, the amino acid glutamine and ketones as fuel so eliminating just glucose is usually not enough to resolve cancer. More recent research has shown improved cancer outcomes with extended fasting or a plant based fast mimicking diet (ref Dr Valter Longo) which greatly reduces protein and keeps carbs at moderate levels. There are some examples of extended fasting alone completely resolving late stage cancers. So it appears that the altered biological state resulting from fasting (autophagy), rather than a particular diet, may hold a key to cancer resolution.
I think you have no bloody idea, you're parroting vegan crap. Who said the keto diet is often an accelerator of the cancer process, The 7th day Adventists.
My thoughts, too, regarding IGF-1. I loved reading about Dr. Gonzales' passion to help in the book written by one of his patients. My feeling is that switching between a meat/fat- and a plant/fruit-based diet, in a seasonal and ancestral manner (no processed s...), makes more sense. Meat/fat-based could help to increase insulin sensitivity and provide fat-soluble vitamins incl. vit D in winter; plant/fruit-based (regional produce) in summer could also make sense as phytonutrients activate phases 1 and 2 of detoxification and maybe thus help" clean up" our body from fat-soluble toxins (hormones, plastics, heavy metals, endocrine disruptors, pills etc). Yes, the latter will raise insulin, but maybe it's not too bad if it happens occasionally and when there's no habit of having a sweet tooth? For me, extremes like being a strict herbivore in winter (I was one of those extreme green eaters ;-) ) or only a lion dieter are not sustainable, but I am not ill nor autoimmune. Fasting is probably always the best way for autophagy. I hope the question about keto and cancer gets clinically sorted out soon.
@@georgemoore6662 much better than everyone expected (including me), thank you. My onco reckons my keto diet was my best move. I’m still not good at the weights 😏
Cancer patients turn up on my YT feed from time to time. Of the ones I follow, three are vegans--one for years--one is a near or ex-vegan, one is juice-bombing herself, and one is undetermined, whose doctor did tell her to eat less sugar. None follow a low-carb or carnivore diet.
Yes, none should because dairy and animal protein from the non-human mammals are the major causes of cancer growth. These are neu5gc foods which the human bodies make antibodies against. Fasting is essential for prevention and cure of all kinds of cancers.
At least one prominent keto doctor died from cancer and she wasn't even in her 60s. She also never smoked. I say this to show that following a diet doesn't 100% mean you won't get a disease.
I was vegan forever and I got cancer but but it was curable and I'm fine..I now do low carb and no sugar and eat meat and fish and eggs ..I'm still eating lots of veggies ..some fruits ..yes I know fruits have sugar lol..I rarely eat beans and I never eat grains I eat more fat ...I fast 2 days a week and do lots of intermittent fasting..I missed pasta so I had a cup today ..lol..I eat sardines...
@@user-ik4nd4zd5h yes I drink black coffee and herbal tea and water..yes Mindy Pelz and Dr Annette Bosworth are great fasting doctors on utube ..I don't know any fasting books..yes I had to work my way up by not eating for 14 hours and then 16 hours and 20 hours and on and on..start with intermittent fasting..
Appeal to Authorithy! Authority is, like the United Nations, like many political bodies, produce opinions which are politically palatable, it reflects popular opinion rather than scientific opinion.

“How Gig Government Backed Bad Science Made American Fat” By Reason Tv (Interview with Nina Teicholz-Read Book- The Big Fat Surprise) If dietitian guidelines for USDA are open to public comment then everyone needs to get on there and support change for carnivore diet- up the meat and saturated fats and remove the plant based mess!
