Wegmans has a EU Organic Salmon that is very healthy. As I started to add back foods that were not Plant Based only (after two years of strict vegetarian), it was the first thing that I added. Since I continued with Full Monthly Labs and Quarterly Blood Sample clonoSEQ MRD testing, I was able to monitor that this fish caused me no problems.

When MM is Active (Stage 1, 2, 3), avoiding animal products is advised. Animal products of beef, chicken and fish provide hemi-iron which helps MM Cancer grow, same as sugar does.

It’s important to starve Cancer - it greatly aids the Treatment Meds to have the Cancer in a weakened state.

See Dr Brandy’s Ebook/Book - “Beat Back Cancer Naturally”, Dr William Li’s “Eat to Beat Disease”, Dr Jane McLelland “How to Starve Cancer”and Dr Block’s “Life Over Cancer”

You’ll find a very common theme from them all.

Eating non-vegetarian food does not cause or “provoke” multiple myeloma. Meat, chicken, fish and eggs can all be sources of protein for someone with myeloma.

Kidney disease is a separate consideration. If myeloma has impaired your kidneys, the amount and type of protein, sodium, potassium and phosphorus that is appropriate depends on your actual kidney function and blood-test results. There is no universal rule that everyone with myeloma and kidney problems must avoid red meat or chicken.

Because kidney problems in myeloma can vary greatly, the safest approach is to ask your nephrologist or oncology dietitian for a diet based on your creatinine/eGFR, potassium, phosphorus and nutritional needs rather than eliminating particular foods based on general advice.
