Nutritional modulation of antitumor immunity.

Published in: Current opinion in immunology (2024)
The composition and quantity of food we eat have a drastic impact on the development and function of immune responses. In this review, we highlight defined nutritional interventions shown to enhance antitumor immunity, including ketogenic, low-protein, high-fructose, and high-fiber diets, as well as dietary restriction. We propose that incorporating such nutritional interventions into immunotherapy protocols has the potential to increase therapeutic responsiveness and long-term tumor control in patients with cancer.
