"The most powerful medicine is the medicine from within." - Dr. Valter Longo

It's been two and a half years, since my last interview with Dr. Valter Longo, and today he's back to share some exciting updates on his ongoing research, specifically on fasting to improve cancer treatment.

Valter Longo PhD is the author of the book, The Longevity Diet, and one of the foremost researchers in the world on fasting, immune system regeneration, and longevity.

Dr. Longo and colleagues also developed the Fasting Mimicking Diet, a 4-5 day, plant-based, calorie-restricted diet, which is used clinically under the name Xentigen (formerly Chemolieve) and is available to consumers under the brand name ProLon.

In this new interview, Dr. Longo talks about three new studies published in Nature on the impact that a Fasting Mimicking Diet has on cancer cells and cancer treatment. These studies found:

-Breast cancer patients who did a four-day Fasting Mimicking Diet around each chemo cycle had the same amount of side effects as the control group doing chemo, but without taking an additional drug to reduce side effects. The FMD group had a five times better response to chemo than the non-FMD group. They were more likely to experience 90-100% tumor loss and they had far less long-term immune cell damage.

-The Fasting Mimicking Diet combined with IV vitamin C worked better than vitamin C alone.

-Hormone therapy ER+ with FMD caused increased tumor regression and reversed treatment resistance.

It is an absolute thrill and an incredible honor to be able to interview Dr. Valter Longo again.

Dig in, learn some amazing stuff, and then share this interview with the people you care about!
