Now suddenly there is a big a backlash against keto and really any animal products even fish and eggs; all the people claiming 100% plant based is the only way. They're saying the PET scan is picking up antibodies which benefit from sugar, instead of cancer which is eating the sugar. Now, I never went full Keto because I think plants have too many good qualities, but to discount the Whole warburg effect just because some people do well on all plant diets completely discounts all the phytonutrients in plants that could be compensating for the sugar.

Thank you Dr Berkson! One of my cousins who had a mastectomy two years ago expressed fear about it coming back because that had happened to her mother, my aunt. I pointed out that her mother had been given chemotherapy the first time. She asked about diet and I mentioned sugar and dairy. I just sent your article to her as a reference from an esteemed scholar in the area of hormones . Thank you!
