Many factors affect the formation and proliferation of Cancer Cells.
But one very effective way of preventing and stopping the growth of cancerous cells is through autophagy

3 ways of inducing Autophagy
-Fasting
-Exercise
-ketogenic Diets
Much has already been written about Autophagy here

This thread seeks to Consolidate the use of fasting in treating Cancer and other metabolic complications that are implicated in Cancer e.g Obesity
Cancer cells metabolize glucose more than healthy cells.
Meaning they are more affected by a sharp drop in blood glucose level induced by fasting.
Cancer cells are stressed by beta-oxidation of fatty acids, are easily killed by anti-cancer agents
Drugs and Chemotherapy

Fasting shunts out the cells to mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation instead of Aerobic glycolysis.
This pathway stifles the production of cancerous cells from healthy ones.
Fasting increases insulin, sensitivity, meaning healthier cells will always mop off excessive glucose

Fasting increases insulin, sensitivity, meaning healthier cells will always mop off excessive glucose
Thereby starving the cancer cells of its one most important energy substrate glucose.
A lot of studies including this have indicated the effectiveness.
Of fasting on prevention of cancerous growth and treatment.
Next time Don't shy away from controlled fasting.
