Gogi Berry for Cancer

[AdamE]

I see this can have great benefit for cancer treatment but can also have negative side effects. Is this good for dogs or would side effects outweigh benefits?

I have not heard of the negative side effects would be interesting to hear from the experts

I haven't used them. I generally recommend as close to zero sugars/carbs as possible for any cancer, which pretty much rules out fruit.

That would mean raspberry, blueberry, and cherry is bad?

 

[Dr. Jean Hofve]

Depends on what you are going for. They have lots of antioxidants, all berries do, but they also have fructose. Blueberries, gojis, tart cherries, and cranberries are on the more tart end, so presumably less sugar. I am just a big believer in the keto diet for cancer, like they use at Ketopet Sanctuary. You can get the similar or same antioxidants in vegetables, with often a bit more fiber (some fibers like lignan are helpful), without the sugar. Cancer is a tightrope, Adam, just hang on to that big balancing stick!
