INTERMITTENT FASTING AND CANCER


One of the reasons I began intermittent fasting (IF) in February 2012 was evidence that fasting had some effect on cancer cells. It was the reference to prostate cancer cells being susceptible to fasting that provoked my initial interest!

The evidence suggested that, whilst fasting, the body’s cells go into repair mode – but invasive cells (cancers, tumours) are neglected and become easier to treat.

Since then evidence continues to accumulate that this is so – but in my experience, the research is disparate and scattered.

I wanted to bring any research that I have come across into one place; to which I can refer any friends and relatives who may know someone with cancer – unfortunately all too common an occurrence latterly, it seems to me.

VEGAN FOOD - BOTH PROCESSED AND HOMEMADE

I've been asked by several people - one of whom is intending to become vegan - just what is in my diet.

I eat a lot of whole food meals  - veg stews and the like - but I also have a fair number of processed vegan foods in my cupboards/fridge and freezer. So as well as listing everything I eat, I thought I'd take some pictures:
