Did you know that your diet could play a significant role in managing myeloma? Research showed a strong link between what we eat and the progression of this complex disease.
A plant-based diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and legumes has shown promising results in myeloma management. Why? A key player is your gut microbiome – the trillions of bacteria living in your digestive system.
Studies, including groundbreaking research by Dr. Urvi Shah, reveal that consuming whole, minimally processed foods while reducing or eliminating animal products can help reduce inflammation and enhance gut health—key factors supporting gut microbiome diversity and a strong immune system.
Dr. Shah, in collaboration with the HealthTree Foundation, is at the forefront of research exploring the link between diet and myeloma progression. The Nutrivention-2 Study is a pioneering national, multi-arm, randomized prospective telehealth study. It investigates how a plant-based diet and supplements can alter the gut microbiome in patients with smoldering myeloma, potentially reducing inflammation and cancer risk.
To learn more about Dr. Shah’s research on diet and multiple myeloma, read our previous article, ‘Advancing Myeloma Research with Dr. Urvi Shah Through HealthTree Cure Hub’.
For individuals living with multiple myeloma, diet can be a powerful tool in managing the disease. If you or your loved ones are interested in learning more about how dietary changes can impact multiple myeloma, you can listen to Dr. Shah herself explain the latest advances here: Dietary Research in Blood Cancers: Exploring the Impact of a Plant-Based Diet.
The link between diet and myeloma is a rapidly evolving area of research. If you wish to participate in this groundbreaking study, please contact the HealthTree support team at support@healthtree.org. You can also explore ongoing HealthTree research projects on HealthTree Cure Hub.
