This is probably the way it will go: using the ketogenic diet as an adjunct to treatment, and easing the concept in that way.

My objection to chemo and radiation is that these are cancer-causing agents.

For a famous example, Roger Ebert didn't die of his cancer. He was "cured." It was the cancer treatment which disfigured him and killed him.
