You cannot stop cancer with diet alone. Full stop. If you could, then starvation would stop cancer before the patient dies. Or a radical diet would cure a patient. It doesn't.

This has been debunked so often, yet people really want to believe that food diet can cure everything!



Totally agree, but it seems likely to me that diet can make a body more or less hospitable to cancer, which in turn could lend less or more effectiveness of targeted therapies.
