Within the world of integrative medicine—and especially integrative oncology—there’s a growing divide. On one side are those in the plant-based camp. On the other are those who emphasize metabolic health through low-carb, ketogenic, or even carnivore diets. This dietary split is creating more confusion than clarity for both practitioners and patients.
The irony is that conventional oncology, for the most part, doesn’t weigh in on nutrition at all. Most oncologists still receive little or no training in diet or supplementation, much less in guiding patients through a full nutritional program. So, patients looking for help are left to make sense of a jumble of conflicting information—much of it coming from influencers, self-proclaimed experts, or doctors operating in their own echo chambers.
What dietary choices do you make or share with others?
