Few Oncologists will suggest dietary changes as part of any treatment protocol. I assume most don’t believe nutrition and dietary changes can significantly influence a person’s health or perhaps they are relatively ignorant of the potential benefits of eating certain foods and abstaining from others. Perhaps they haven’t seen any randomized, controlled clinical trials with thousands of people which clearly demonstrate the incontrovertible benefits of good dietary habits. Excuse the sarcasm, but I believe certain things are common sense and do not require multi-million dollar studies.
Notwithstanding the absence of large scale clinical trials pertaining to the positive impact of specialized diets and the nutritional and immune system building benefits of consuming identifiable foods, ironically, many Doctors continue unabated to prescribe chemo to late stage Cancer patients despite material evidence casting doubt on chemo’s efficacy with late stage patients. Nevertheless, they continue to give these drugs to their patients without a second thought, and simultaneously, refrain from recommending certain diets which may boost compromised immune systems.
Actually, there have been studies manifesting the prospective benefits of certain foods. We will get to those later. On a common sense level, most people eat food approximately 3 times per day which directly influences the bio-chemistry of their blood, organs, cells, heart and health in general. They put food or liquids into their bodies which contain many different kinds of substances, both healthy and unhealthy. I believe most oncologists would agree that snacks of vegetables and fruits are generally considered healthier than snacks comprised of chips and m & m’s. Agreed ? I, in fact, have experienced excellent progress with my own health when I made a significant change in my diet which directly impacted my blood count levels. Drinking several veggie drinks per week (pulverized carrots, beats, spinach and parsley) and significantly reducing my intake of sweets and red meat materially changed my health situation. Even my doctor (internist), who I believe is an excellent health care provider, was quite surprised.
Dr. Servan-Schreiber, MD, PhD, is affiliated with the University of Pittsburgh and, in fact, had Brain Cancer, his comments and viewpoint are unusual for a conventional Doctor.
