Proteins: The Goldilocks Level

Finding the Right Protein Balance for Cancer Care

Did you know that protein intake plays a crucial role in cancer treatment? It’s not just about getting enough — finding the right balance is key.

🔸 Too much protein can fuel tumor growth by stimulating factors like IGF-1 and mTOR, giving cancer cells the go-ahead to proliferate.
🔸 Too little protein can lead to muscle loss, as the body breaks down lean mass to maintain amino acid balance.

The goal? Get just the right amount of protein to support your health without aiding cancer growth. Later in our course, we’ll dive into how to calculate the ideal protein levels for your unique needs.
