Valter Longo meets Veggie Chemo

This article is pretty damning but Valter Longo's mainstream research [[1]] on fasting prior and post chemo to encourage non cancer cells to not metabolize the chemotherapeutic drug, combined with the mainstream research on the chemotherapeutic effects of some vegetables, such as this in Nature [[2]] suggests to me that Rudolf Breuss may have been less wrong than is claimed. I am not a doctor.Timtak (talk) 04:35, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Valter Longo's fasting research has never been mainstream in the field of nutritional science, he is very much on the side-lines. There is no clinical evidence to support the Rudolf Breuss diet. The 2009 paper you cited on isothiocyanates takes a lot of its data from mice studies, they are unreliable. I am not sure why you mentioned those two papers, they have nothing to do with Rudolf Breuss or his Wikipedia article.
There is evidence that cruciferous vegetables may be useful to prevent chronic diseases, including cancer but there is no clinical evidence that drinking vegetable juices can reverse cancer. As Cancer Research UK note "there is no scientific evidence that alternative diets can cure cancer" [3]. There is big difference between prevention and curing cancer. It makes sense to consume fruits and vegetables to prevent cancer, but the idea that drinking some vegetable juice for around 40 days will cure cancer has not been scientifically demonstrated. There is no clinical evidence for that. Psychologist Guy (talk) 00:01, 2 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
