For people who are newly diagnosed or undergoing active treatment, there is little specific dietary guidance, but new evidence is emerging.

A study in mice found that eating burns more energy when restricted to certain times of the day.

Diets that mimic fasting deprive cancer of fuel needed for rapid growth.

In animal studies, calorie-restricted diets slowed pancreatic tumor growth more than did high-fat ketogenic diets.

Severe short-term caloric restriction is safe for cancer patients and is associated with activation of immune responses.

Researchers analyzed blood samples from a small group of people fasting for Ramadan.

Australian researchers conducted experiments on mice that they fed only every other day.

The study’s finding may help patients who suffer from GI infections or cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.
