Summary

This study tests whether eating lots of fermented foods (like yogurt, kimchi, and sauerkraut) can help standard cancer treatments work better in people with rectal or lung cancer. Researchers will see if this diet improves tumor response, gut health, and quality of life. About 54 participants will be randomly assigned to either the fermented food diet or their usual diet.
