Diseases which may be prevented or cured by means of therapeutic fasting and caloric restriction

ovarian tumors

According to Dr. Fuhrman™s obsurvations (Dr. Joel Fuhrman M.D. "Fasting and Eating for Health", St. Martin™s Griffin, New York, 1995) noncancerous or benign ovarian tumors typically respond rapidly to a fast, one may undertake a fast and then recheck with ultrasound to see if the tumor has shrunk. If, after a ten to fourteen-day fast, the tumor stays the same size, then it is more likely that the mass may represent cancer and should be surgically removed. Cancerous tumor (according to Dr. Fuhrman) should not be expected to respond to a fast.
