Diets for cancer

Key Aspects of the McLelland Protocol

Synergistic Combination of Treatments
The protocol emphasizes the use of a cancer-starving diet in conjunction with powerful supplements and low-toxicity drugs. These elements are believed to act synergistically, enhancing their individual anti-cancer effects.
Personalized Approach
Jane McLelland advocates for a personalized approach to cancer treatment. She has created a 'Metro Map' to help patients understand which metabolic pathways to target based on their specific type of cancer.
Diet and Lifestyle Changes
The diet component of the protocol involves significant changes to the patient's nutrition and lifestyle. It includes a low glycaemic diet, avoidance of red meat, and a focus on eating oily fish, vegetables, and certain fruits.
Off-Label Drugs and Supplements
The protocol recommends the use of off-label drugs like Statins and Metformin, which are thought to cut off the fuel supply to cancer cells. Supplements such as fish oil, turmeric, and vitamins are also part of the regimen.
Exercise and Fasting
Questions about the role of exercise, fasting, and the safety of fats are addressed within the protocol, suggesting that these factors need to be tailored to the individual's needs.
Specific Dietary Recommendations

Prostate Cancer Considerations
For prostate cancer, the protocol initially suggests cutting back on fat and protein, and as the disease progresses, reducing sugar, glucose, and insulin intake.
General Dietary Guidelines
Patients are advised to consume soy milk, low dairy, chicken once a week, fish, low carbs, and a variety of fresh vegetables. Sugar, processed foods, and alcohol are to be limited.
Off-Label Drug Use and Cancer Pathways
Jane McLelland's approach includes a cocktail of off-label drugs and nutraceutical supplements aimed at blocking the pathways that cancer stem cells use for fuel, such as glucose, glutamine, and fat.
