Hey everyone.. I had a question. My mother's ca125 has been increased a bit. She was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and was on bevacizumab ever since 2nd time treatment. So, now I have requested her to start doing intermittent fasting. If anyone has any experiences related to intermittent fasting then please do share..

Dr Nasha Winters is the top oncology naturopath for ovarian cancer and she’s a strong proponent of intermittent fasting. She wrote a book “The Metabolic Approach to Cancer”

I suggest your mom discuss it with her oncologist. If you have specific information that led you to suggest the fasting, then let her bring it to her oncologist to review. This isn't to say she should or shouldn't do it, but that her oncologist needs to know what she is doing, just like they need to know if she takes any kind of supplement/herbs etc.
