#453 The Truth About Ketosis - Breast Cancer and Nutrition, Just the Facts

from Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach · host Laura Lummer

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. This is a grounded, research-based conversation designed to help you understand your options without fear or hype.   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   Resources Mentioned: Work with Laura: https://www.thebreastcancerrecoverycoach.com/health      Let's Connect!
