A ketogenic diet is a very high-fat diet that forces your body to burn fat, not carbs, for most of its fuel. Researchers are trying to learn if it may also help starve cancer cells.

Scientists at UC San Francisco have discovered a way to get rid of pancreatic cancer in mice by putting them on a high fat, or ketogenic, diet and giving them cancer therapy. The cancer therapy blocks ...

The ketogenic diet has proven to be useful in mast cell tumors, but many other types of cancer need to be investigated. In 2024, researchers published an article in Nature about using the ...

A ketogenic diet can interact with certain cancer therapies to block the development of pancreatic cancer in mice, scientists at the University of California San Francisco have found.
