There are two diet changes the best doctors in the world will give you the day you are diagnosed with cancer:
1) Eliminate sugar from your diet
2) Eliminate red meat from your diet
This improves survival rates by orders of magnitude.
The sugar cancer link is becoming increasingly apparent, and is the elephant in the room. Excessive red meat can be a problem as well, but from everything I gather, sugar is the real culprit. Sugar raises insulin levels, promoting cancer growth, causing metabolic problems, and inhibiting apoptosis, then feeds that cancer with excessive glucose in the bloodstream.
Want to avoid or treat cancer with your diet (along with diabetes, heart disease, and autoimmune diseases)? Stop ingesting sugar!
There is evidence of a sugar link on almost every cancer study - but nobody wants to call this out because of the terribly obvious implications for the modern diet. The fact is, your doctors have been telling you that low-fat diets cause disease, pushing people to eat high sugar low-fat foods, thereby killing them.
Here's just a few references I found in about 30 minutes. I don't keep track as I probably should, but the link is painfully obvious.

women and in women and men combined for several cancer sites,
independently of obesity, provides further evidence for an
association between abnormal glucose metabolism and cancer.
Type 2 diabetes, an extreme state of glucose intolerance, is
associated with elevated plasma levels of glucose and
insulin, both before and after its diagnosis, and is
associated with an increased risk of cancers of the liver,
pancreas, colon, endometrium, kidney, and breast (1,2). Less
is known, however, about the effect on cancer risk of
moderately elevated glucose levels among nondiabetic subjects.
The efficacy of Gerson Therapy not supported by the evidence and it can be harmful to patients. Coffee enemas can damage the large intestine. Foregoing demonstrably effective traditional treatments can lead to reductions in life span and quality of life.
