Episode Description
In this final episode of the Nutrition After Breast Cancer: Just the Facts series, we break down ketosis clearly and responsibly.
Ketosis is not a cure for cancer.
It is not a replacement for chemotherapy or radiation.
But research, including the Keto-CARE trial at The Ohio State University and ongoing metabolic oncology work at Boston College, suggests that metabolic ketosis may influence insulin signaling, inflammation, and treatment response.
In this episode we cover:
-What metabolic health really means
-The Warburg Effect explained simply
-Ketosis vs ketoacidosis
-How ketones influence inflammation
-How therapeutic ketosis is being studied
-Genetic variants that may affect fat burning
-When ketosis may help
-When caution is needed
