Hi ! There is so much data on intermittent fasting !! During chemo , after chemo my oncologist gave me a paper which I can’t find. I am trying to copy link of one I found on breast cancer.org It says to fast for over 13 hours at least. I skip dinner

The supplements I take were recommended by an MD that works at the hospital He recommended DIM by Enzymatic Therapy , which is the one he trusts based on studies. He also recommended oncoplex which is a clinically tested product
(Glucoraphanin ). And Turkey Tail mushroom by Host Defense This is in addition to the tamoxifen I was taking not in place of Right now this is all I am doing until I start Arimidex
I suggest you look up all three supplements and any studies done on them. Just to confirm this was in addition to an aromatase inhibitor. Some women who just couldn’t tolerate any of them , rely on a vegan diet and these supplements, they just roll the dice but I don’t want to be one of them. I pray I do better with Arimidex. I am a massage therapist and personal trainer so being in unbearable joint pain is not an option

I tried to attach link to the intermittent fasting benefits for breast cancer and non recurrence but couldn’t !!!!

Hope this helps !!
