Jane McLelland is recognised globally as an authority on cancer metabolism and a long-term survivor of stage IV cancer. A former Chartered Physiotherapist, she brought a clinician's discipline to her own diagnosis and, over more than twenty years of survival, built the framework that became her international bestseller, How to Starve Cancer, translated for readers in dozens of countries.
Her work centres on the distinctive metabolism of cancer cells and the
combinations of lifestyle change, targeted supplementation and low-toxicity repurposed medicines that can undermine it. Jane's widely followed online course brings this science to both patients and doctors, and her Metro Map framework gives clinicians a visual map for combining evidence-based interventions across the pathways that cancer relies on.
Her approach is now used by integrative and oncology practitioners across the world; a growing list of clinicians who follow it is published on www.howtostarvecancer.com. To turn the resulting real-world experience into structured, shareable evidence, Jane founded the Global Integrative Oncology Registry (GIOR): a governed observational registry that captures outcomes from stage 4 patients using metabolic and repurposing protocols, with a Metro Map decision-support tool for the clinicians who care for them.
Jane's contribution to patient education and advocacy has been recognised with the Amazing Woman Global Lifetime Achievement Award (2019), the UK Health Radio Award for Cancer Services, and awards for Social Impact and as an Influencer.
