Q&A

  • How does the speaker view cancer treatment and funding?

    The speaker is passionate about using scientific evidence to improve cancer treatment and believes that metabolic therapy can significantly improve patient outcomes. He is reliant on philanthropy for funding and envisions changing the course of cancer treatment.

  • How can ketosis be achieved?

    Ketosis can be achieved through a zero carb diet for 10-14 days, using a keto meter to measure the glucose Ketone index. However, staying in ketosis may be challenging due to modern societal temptations.

  • Are there non-toxic strategies for managing cancer?

    Metabolic therapy and nutritional ketosis, which involve calorie restriction, a ketogenic approach, and targeting glutamine, are considered effective non-toxic strategies for managing cancer. Additionally, hyperbaric oxygen therapy combined with a ketogenic diet can increase survival time and selectively kill tumor cells without harming the body.

  • What is the Glucose Ketone Index (GKI) calculator?

    The GKI calculator helps manage cancer by maintaining a specific ratio of glucose to ketones in the blood, aiming to achieve a 'Paleolithic Zone' by controlling diet and metabolic state.

  • How is mitochondria linked to cancer?

    Mitochondrial dysfunction due to factors like lack of exercise, processed carbs, emotional stress, and lack of sleep can lead to cancer. Somatic mutation theory and the role of mitochondria in cancer are being debated, and recognizing the role of mitochondria in cancer could significantly reduce cancer rates in the future.

  • What did Otto Warburg discover about cancer?

    Otto Warburg discovered that all cancers depend on a fermentation energy process without oxygen and that the shift in energy systems is a central causal factor of cancer.
