If remotely true then we'd have an overwhelming number of stories given how popular keto has been for a couple decades now.
A small sample, but there are lots you can find simply by googling for keto success stories when it is about the general effects of the diet.

There seem to be some studies but the main problem so far is that they are mostly short term.

And when it comes to cancer, not that many studies, and the results seem to be mixed, although also somewhat dependent on what TYPE of cancer the patient has, but the idea that a ketogenic diet might be helpful for cancer patients is about a hundred years old.

I've seen many articles on how sugars "feed" cancer and to "starve" cancer by low carb / sugar diets. Grains / carbs turn into sugars. Keto is low carb. Couldn't agree with you more.
