Low-Carb, High-Protein Diet Slows Cancer Growth In Mice, Study Finds
So it sounds like eating a paleo diet would also be good for fighting cancer. I am willing to bet that a paleo diet would work even better since it would consist of organic foods, pastured animal products and more fat. It has been shown that carbohydrates feed cancer tumors so leaving out carbs for a while would make a lot of sense.
Turns out eating a South Beach-like diet — low in carbs, high in protein — could have effects beyond whittling the waistline. It could also reduce cancer risk and slow growth of tumors, according to a new study in mice.
What I find humorous is that the photo in the article is of a box of low carb Special K. Probably the worst sort of food to eat period,
