# Altering Diet Enhances Response to Cancer Treatments in Mice – The Cancer Consortium

> An NCI-supported study in mice found that a very low methionine diet improved the ability of chemotherapy and radiation to shrink tumors. Six healthy adults on a low-methionine diet showed similar metabolic changes. The researchers say human cancer applications are at an early stage.
