A report on nature.com says cancer patients can fast to cut calories and protein and protect themselves against chemotherapy's toxicity, with five days of fasting followed by normal eating avoiding weight loss. The American Cancer Society advises the opposite, the report notes.
Food
Among 2,339 Multiethnic Cohort participants, high dairy intake was linked to 14% higher all-cause and 16% higher non-Hodgkin lymphoma mortality, while legumes were tied to 13 to 16% lower risk of both. Fibre, soy, fruit, vegetables and processed meat showed no link.
Supplements
In a study in Cancer Research, sulforaphane, a compound in broccoli and its sprouts, stopped breast cancer stem cells from forming mammospheres at 7.5 uM. Mice given 50 mg/kg daily developed smaller tumors, most markedly when supplemented before receiving the cancer cells.
Miscellaneous
Small Business Majority's John Arensmeyer welcomed Senate passage of the 21st Century Cures Act, which lets small employers offer Health Reimbursement Arrangements so insured workers can put pre-tax dollars toward premiums and out-of-pocket costs. He also urged keeping the ACA intact.

A publicist's pitch for Edward & Sons Trading Company, listing winter products including Let's Do...Organic shredded coconut, flakes and flour, Miso-Cup instant soups, Native Forest organic coconut milk, and organic croutons and mashed potatoes.
Minerals
In 132,823 adults followed about 17.5 years, women taking 500 to 1,000 mg of supplemental calcium daily had up to 16% lower all-cause death risk, while men taking 1,000 mg or more were 17% more likely to die, mostly from cardiovascular causes.
Supplements
Diabetic rats given a 1:1 Curcuma longa and Eugenia jambolana supplement twice daily for six weeks had significantly lower fasting and random plasma glucose and 6% lower HbA1c than controls, an effect the researchers say matched the drug glibenclamide.
Supplements
Mice with metastatic cancer on either a standard or ketogenic diet also received the ketone supplement 1,3-butanediol. The supplement slowed tumor growth and lengthened survival by 34 to 50 percent, and the researchers suggest it might help patients on standard care.
