SINGAPORE – A ketogenic diet can help slow the growth of cancer tumours, though it can also accelerate a wasting syndrome that causes the loss of skeletal muscle and fat, recent research has found.
Published in scientific journal Cell Metabolism in June, the study notes that cancer cells are dependent on glucose. It was theorised that it would be possible to starve cancers by depriving them of the nutrients that they need, he told The Straits Times. However, the latest research – conducted on mice with pancreatic and colorectal cancer – showed that while such diets can slow cancer growth, they also accelerate cachexia, which is common among cancer patients.
Prof Venkitaraman said: “Our research highlights that dietary interventions affect many organ systems beyond just cancer cells, leading to both deleterious and positive consequences.”
