How fish oil benefit dogs with cancer
Studies show diets including a balanced dose of pure fish oil may help prevent several human cancers such as breast cancer, colon cancer, and lung cancer. But fish oil isn’t just a good preventative supplement, it’s also helpful for those currently suffering from cancer
Slow tumor growth and spread
Several international studies show fish oil slows the rate tumors grow. And it inhibits metastasis – the process of tumors spreading to other parts of the body. Both of these benefits could significantly improve your dog’s response to cancer treatments.
Maintain body weight and muscle mass
Many times, cancer patients don’t die from the cancer itself, but from the malnutrition and wasting away cancer causes. This is known as cachexia (ca-kek-see-a).
Researchers found when feeding a high fish oil diet to animals with cancer, the animals maintained more of their body weight. And it increased their muscle mass. As you can imagine, helping your dog maintain his body weight and muscle mass may increase his chance of surviving the dog cancer treatment.

Another study showed adding fish oil to the diet also helps chemotherapy patients respond better to the treatment. The researchers also found a high fish oil diet also protects animals against the toxins from chemotherapy drugs.
