Is Cancer a Metabolic (Mitochondrial) Disease? Our guest on the OPP today, Dr. Thomas Seyfried says it is.
Dr. Thomas Seyfried is a leading cancer researcher, Biology professor at Boston College and author of the book Cancer as a Metabolic Disease. His work focuses on epigenetic and metabolic nutritional therapies for neurological and mitochondrial diseases. According to Dr. Seyfried, cancer is a mitochondrial metabolic disease. His Press-Pulse protocol of ketosis, fasting, and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) created with colleague Dominic D’Agostino is producing amazing results in animals, dogs, and people. On today's show, we explore:- Why Dr. Seyfried thinks genetic tests are a waste of time & money
- Why neuroinflammation should scare you (Hint: it's linked to almost every major disease)
- How cancer could be single disease with a single cause, and a single cure
- Why calories restriction - and fasting - signals our healthy cells to improve themselves
- How ketosis starves cancer cells and helps heal the body
- Why protecting our mitochondria may be our best method to reduce our risk of cancer
- How Dr. Seyfried and Dominic D'Agostino linked up to create the Press-Pulse method of starving cancer with ketosis, then destroying it with Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatments (HBOT)
- The frustrating truth about why the scientific and medical communities are not rushing to fund studies and implement these treatment protocols
