SO dear frens, despite some early encouraging signs, the Keto diet with fenben and dozens of other supplements and treatments, did not affect my cancer even a little bit according to the scans! Just be aware! The keto diet starved ME but not this aerobic cancer which could metabolize like healthy cells! I lost weight and muscle. I appreciate all the advice given here and tried with all my energy for 5 months of treatment. Every cancer is different, every human body is different. The good news apparently is, it is the slow-growing ones which are still aerobic, so may it be indolent!! ANYWAY I have to live my life and Trust in the Lord.

Caveat to this post----
https://eatandbeatcancer.com/2017/06/24/anti-cancer-strategies-inhibit-glutamine/
Green tea contains egcg which blocks the ability for the cancer to use glutamine. Just found that out today. The more you know. So army lady start drinking nothing but green tea and alternate fasting with strictly keto meals
Interesting find, but glutamate and glutamine are not the same thing, so I don't know if it would help.

Typo, sorry. Corrected.
From the article:
"While you’ll never be able to eliminate glutamine from your diet, you can, however, eat foods that keep cancer cells from using glutamine. Here’s the what, why and how:
green tea: contains EGCG, which inhibits an enzyme, glutamate dehydrogenase, that helps cancer cells use glutamineashwaghanda: contains the enzyme L-asparaginase, which keeps you from digesting glutamine. Make a relaxing tea from it.seeds of fresh peppers: All peppers from the capsicum annum family, including the large sweet bells and many smaller pungent peppers, contain L-asparaginase, especially in their seeds. (If you don’t have cancer, however, avoid a steady diet of pepper seeds due to your body’s need for glutamine.)
And while we’re on the subject of Thomas Seyfried, one of the most important minds in cancer cell metabolism (how cancer cells use fuels for growth), he also recommends fasting, such as long overnight fasts, to get your body into ketosis, a state in which it burns fats not glucose. Once you’re there, he suggests adding hyperbaric oxygen treatments to help kill cancer cells. Read my Love Letter to Senator McCain for an overview of Seyfried’s anti-cancer approach."
All good info!
