Convergence of Evidence: An Optimal Diet For Slowing, Stopping, Or Reversing Cancer

Dr. Michael Greger Gives Advice For The Breast Cancer Community By: Dr. Michael Greger, Director of Public Health and Animal Agriculture at the Humane Society of the United States.

Dr. Ornish published an editorial in the American Journal of Cardiology last year that I think really sums up where we are, describing a growing convergence of scientific evidence that an optimal diet is mostly plant based. Make sure it has nuts, soy, and fiber and you can drop your bad cholesterol as much as taking drugs every day for the rest of your life, but without the cost and without the side-effects. Save the country about $20 billion.

Of course most patients aren’t even given the plant-based option because of the patronizing belief among doctors that no one will actually do it. But in reality most people don’t want take the drugs. People hate the side effects. They don’t make you feel any better and it’s scary popping pills…

Mediterranean diet associated with longer telomeres

Originally posted on lyranara.me:

Eating a Mediterranean diet might help extend your lifespan, suggests a study published in The BMJ this week. The diet appears to be associated with longer telomere length—an established marker of slower aging.

The Mediterranean diet has been consistently linked with health benefits, including reduced mortality and reduced risk of chronic diseases, such as heart disease.

It is characterised by a high intake of vegetables, fruits, nuts, legumes (such as peas, beans and lentils), and (mainly unrefined) grains; a high intake of olive oil but a low intake of saturated fats; a moderately high intake of fish, a low intake of dairy products, meat and poultry; and regular but moderate intake of alcohol (specifically wine with meals).

Telomeres sit on the end of chromosomes (like the plastic tips on the end of shoelaces), stopping them from fraying and scrambling the genetic codes they contain. In healthy people, telomeres shorten progressively…

Benefits persist in T cell therapy for children with relapsed leukemia

Originally posted on lyranara.me:

An innovative cell therapy against a highly aggressive form of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) continues to show highly promising results in children treated in a pilot study. Ninety-two percent of the 39 children receiving bioengineered T cells had no evidence of cancer at one month after treatment, with this complete response persisting in some cases for more than two years. The personalized cell therapy reprograms a patient’s immune system and offers the potential of long-term success.

“As we continue to follow children in this study, we see exciting results for patients who have exhausted their other treatment options,” said study leader Stephan A. Grupp, M.D., Ph.D., a pediatric oncologist at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and a Professor of Pediatrics at the Perelman School of Medicine of the University of Pennsylvania. Grupp described outcomes and follow-up results of this pilot clinical trial for pediatric patients with ALL in a press…
