Question: Can a change in diet alter the course of cancer?

Answer: Not as far as researchers know. Many cancer centers are currently involved in finding out whether a certain diet can alter the course of cancer in some selected early cases. But there is no evidence that diet supplements, vitamins, minerals, or special diets actually change the course of a cancer once it has developed.
