(it is pretty logical - metastatic invasion is based on acidic dissolution of ECM (which is collagen mostly) and cancer tumor local environment is acidic as a result of increased glycolysis and the resulting increased lactate production, so increasing the pH of the tumor environment naturally impedes metastatic invasion)
>In the field of oncology, “holistic” has become a patchouli-scented catchall for untested folk remedies: raspberry-leaf tea and juice cleanses.
why some "juices", or more specifically just plain baking soda in a glass of drinking water, may actually help - at least for mice it doubled survival chances here https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2834485/figure/...
