Cancer cells are like little monsters that crave sugar and protein. They feed on glucose (from carbs) and certain amino acids (like glutamine and methionine from protein) to grow, spread, and dodge your immune system.
But there’s a way to cut off their fuel and make your body less hospitable to cancer: fasting and ketosis.
🔥 Why Fasting Starves Cancer
When you fast—going for hours or even full days without eating—your glucose stores run low. Your body switches to burning fat, producing ketones. These clean-burning molecules fuel healthy cells but can’t be used efficiently by most cancer cells.
This shift into ketosis does three powerful things:
- Starves cancer cells of glucose
- Activates autophagy, your body’s deep-clean system
- Supports immune cells, including T-cells and NK cells
🧹 What Is Autophagy?
Autophagy is your body’s way of clearing out broken or dangerous cells. During ketosis and fasting, autophagy helps:
- Remove precancerous or mutated cells
- Break down cancer cell debris
- Reset damaged mitochondria
- Reduce inflammation
It’s like giving your body a daily internal scrub—cancer cells hate it, but your healthy cells thrive.
🕐 OMAD: One Meal a Day
To maintain deep ketosis and autophagy, I use OMAD (One Meal a Day). That means:
- One meal in the afternoon
- No snacks or calories outside that window
- 20+ hours per day of fasting
This gives your body time to burn fat, stay in ketosis, and avoid glucose spikes that feed cancer.
🥗 My Anti-Cancer Diet Plan
Low Protein • Low Iron • High Fat • One Meal a Day
Every bite I eat serves a purpose. This isn’t about weight loss—it’s metabolic warfare.
✅ Goals:
- Starve cancer of glucose, protein, and iron
- Fuel healthy cells with fat and ketones
- Support autophagy and immune defense
- Avoid feeding or protecting tumors
🥑 What I Eat Instead
My OMAD plate is built around therapeutic fats:
- Olive oil
- Coconut oil
- MCT oil
- Avocado
- Ghee
These fats fuel your cells without spiking insulin or feeding cancer.
⚖️ Protein: Just Enough to Survive
Too much protein = more glutamine and methionine for tumors. I stick to the lowest effective dose:
📏 My Rule:
0.39g protein per pound of body weight
➡️ At 280 lbs, that’s ~110g max—but I aim lower to stay in autophagy.
🩸 Iron: Keep It Low—But Not Too Low
Cancer thrives on iron, but you still need some to avoid anemia and support immune cells.
🎯 Target: 8–12 mg/day
I avoid:
- Red meat
- Liver/organs
- Spinach
- Iron-fortified foods
Instead, I choose low-iron protein like white fish and eggs.
📊 My Blood Test Dashboard
Test | Why It Matters |
---|---|
WBC | Immune strength |
RBC | Red blood health |
Hemoglobin | Oxygen transport |
Hematocrit | Blood volume integrity |
RDW | Inflammation/deficiency |
Lymphocytes | Immune targeting |
Immature Grans | Early immune response |
These markers help me adjust protein/iron intake safely.
🦴 Bone Glue for Gut Repair
Radiation and fasting can weaken your gut lining. I use Bone Glue (concentrated bone broth) to:
- Soothe inflammation
- Rebuild gut barrier
- Provide collagen, gelatin, glycine
🕒 I take it during recovery phases, not during oxidative therapy.

🕒 My Daily Eating Rhythm
Time | Phase | Purpose |
---|---|---|
Morning | Fasted oxidative therapy | Attack mode |
Afternoon | OMAD + antioxidant stack | Recovery mode |
Evening | Gut repair and rest | Heal and reset |
🧠 Final Word: This Is More Than a Diet
This strategy isn’t about weight—it’s about metabolic warfare. With each meal, fast, and supplement, I’m making cancer’s environment:
- Low in fuel
- High in immune strength
- Hostile to tumor growth
This is how I fight back. And it’s working.
