I cant send links for the info but sure you've done some googling that there's increasing evidence re keto being helpful with cancer treatment and possibly - not sure how evidential this is - the cells spreading too also think that there is something on intermittent fasting being helpful. Best starting point is probably diet doctor. Keto does make you feel good so that in itself may be of benefit whilst you are undergoing difficult times. Keto is individual re carbs to some degree but most people achieve under 30 grams of carb per day others have to go 20. Presuming you are already lchf? If you are you can just start reducing carbs in increments and test ketones as you go. When first started I bought per sticks as cheap and gave me a guideline but over time they were not useful as don't really pick up the middle or low bits which is where you want to be. Like [USER=368709]@Goonergal[/USER] I got the free Caren's dual meter from spirit healthcare it's free and although strips expensive once you're buzzing along you really only need to test occasionally or if you're worried that you changed carbs etc.Wishing you all the best ask questions anytime I've been keto for six months now and have never felt as well. I didn't have keto flu as I did it gently over a month before went keto via lchf for one month. I generally stay between 1.4 and 3.3 but if above that tend to know as feel so hungry at same time and so eat when get high result. Be kind to yourself - lots of low carb treats and take it very slowly and gently your health is precious</blockquote>
