Fasting-induced differential stress sensitization in cancer treatment
S Di Biase, V D Longo, S Di Biase, V D Longo
Abstract
Most tumors are generated and evolve under high-nutrient conditions, yet therapy does not include dietary changes generating a hostile environment for cancer cells. Because fasting promotes the most drastic change in the levels of plasma macro- and micro-nutrients, and consequently in glucose and growth factors, it has the potential to maximize cancer cell sensitization.
