The Ketogenic Diet slowed cancer's growth but was a difficult diet to maintain. Not only was travel hard on the diet, but weight loss was an immediate concern. It is way too easy to loose 20-30 pounds on this diet. So after getting too thin (Down to 149) and wanting to do some traveling, I dropped this diet and chose the following typical meal plan:
Breakfast
1-scoop Pectasol-C
1/2 cup steel cut oats with walnuts and sugar free coconut milk.
Lunch Smoothie in Blendtec
16oz filtered water
2 scoops Orgain - Organic Protein Plant Based Powder
2 large Kale leaves

1 tbsp fresh ginger
2 small tomatoes
1/4 cup organic blueberries

2 capsules Phosphatidylcholine
Additional afternoon lunch
1 Cup Organic Homemade 12 bean vegetable soup

CoQ10 450mg
D3 6,000iu
Active B Complex -1Cap
Milk Thistle, Dandelion, & Artichoke - 3 Caps
Saw Palmetto & Pumpkin seed - 1 Cap
Snack
Small organic apple
Dinner
4oz to 6oz wild caught salmon broiled with camalina oil
Large salad
kale, spinach, romaine, tomato, cucumber, camelina - apple cider dressing
Lightly steamed organic broccoli and string beans
Dessert

For the past 5 weeks I've been on a Ketogenic Diet to slow the progress of the prostate cancer. During the first 4 weeks I daily consume approximately 190g Fat, 75g Protein, and 15g to 17g of Carbs. The Fat is mostly a combination of Coconut oil, Camelina oil, Olive oil plus Chia and Flax seeds. Proteins are all high quality, like wild salmon, including some plant based unsweetened protein.
I am also supplementing with natural salt, potassium and magnesium. In addition I've recently started taking Pancreatic Enzymes at roughly 8.5g per day.
As of the last few days, I've increased the Carbs by approximately 25 per day, spread out through the day. This is based on some newer research.
So far this diet has considerably slowed the increase of the PSA, but not yet halted the increase.
Look for new articles on the Ketogenic Diet process, and Pancreatic Enzymes to be published here soon.
________________________
This was my previous diet...
This is the basic diet I now follow. I always stay away from Dairy, Beef, Lamb and Pork, Gluten, and GMO foods but do eat Wild Caught fresh Alaska Salmon. Recently I've also added some free range, organic, grain feed turkey or chicken to supplement my protein intake. I do vary items to stay away from creating new allergies.
I have recently reduced the amount of grains and increased the amounts of protein and fats in my diet.
This is only one day's worth of food and my diet will vary day by day.

Looks like a pretty good nutrition regimen. Please remember to avoid almonds (even raw) processed in the U.S., as they are treated (coated) with PPO, a racing fuel! Not enough people are aware of this, so please spread the awareness of U.S. almonds. Keep up the great work, and stay healthy!
