Hello Golfday222 firstly I am very sorry that you have advanced prostrate cancer.

You need medical guidance as we can only support those who practice fasting safely for their own personal needs.

So please seek medical advice and we will give you positive encouragement to do whats best for you.

Good luck

Jerry.

Hi, Golfday222 , thank you for joining us here on "Fasting and Furious".

We are not medically qualified - and even medics would need detailed medical history before they gave you specific advice.

We can, however, give you links to generalised advice from medical specialists.

It is well known that Fasting lessons the side-effects of chemotherapy - I will try to find videos or articles.

Both these videos contain a lot of chat - but also useful information:

This is mostly about the effect of the keto or Low-Carbohydrate, High-fat diet on cancer - but I always thought of LCHF and (I)F as part of the same solution - and he dos mention Fasting (and starving mice on chemo) towards the end.
