Emerging evidence indicates that cancer is primarily a metabolic disease involving disturbances in energy production through respiration and fermentation. Cancer is suppressed following transfer of the nucleus from the tumor cell to cytoplasm of normal cells containing normal mitochondria. These findings indicate that nuclear genetic abnormalities cannot be responsible for cancer despite commonly held beliefs in the cancer field. The genomic instability observed in tumor cells and all other recognized hallmarks of cancer are considered downstream epiphenomena of the initial disturbance of cellular energy metabolism. The disturbances in tumor cell energy metabolism can be linked to abnormalities in the structure and function of the mitochondria. Cancer growth and progression can be managed following a whole-body transition from fermentable metabolites, primarily glucose and glutamine, to respiratory metabolites, primarily ketone bodies. This transition will reduce tumor vascularity and inflammation while enhancing tumor cell death. A novel “press-pulse†therapeutic strategy is in development for the non-toxic metabolic management of cancer. Malignant brain cancer in preclinical models and humans will be used to illustrate general concepts. As each individual is a unique metabolic entity, personalization of metabolic therapy as a broadbased cancer treatment strategy will require fine-tuning to match the therapy to an individual’s unique physiology.

This video is one in a series of videos and websites which are being posted on FreeRepublic in the coming days in regard to nutritional health. In the beginning these videos were being posted as a rebuttal to an article and comments in another posted article on FreeRepublic remarking on obesity. Due to the strong interest in obesity and nutritional health as it relates to Type II Diabetes, the videos relating to Type II diabetes and how to reverse the progression of the disease are being moved forward among the other video topics in this series. Expect to see a mixture of videos regarding the role of carbohydrates in the diet and their relationship to nutritional health topics ranging from metabolic syndrome and Diabetes to dementia, Parkinson's Disease, Altzheimer's Disease, and more. The effects of standard government sponsored diets, health association diets, and alternative diets upon everyday nutrition, sports nutrition, and diabetic nutrition will be mixed in with videos focused on the use of various low carbohydrate and high fat (LCHF) diets, such as the ketogenic diets as a treatment for Type II Diabetes.
Anyone who is interested in following this series of posts about nutritional health is invited to request a ping.
The Nutritional Health Series includes the following FreeRepublic posts and links.

Mix one part arrogant cancer doctors with one part corrupt medical- government corruptocracy and one part death dealing agribusiness and presto.......cancer plague. Make em sick and keep em dependant on expensive savings draining life sustaining poison.

Cancer as a metabolic disease: implications for novel therapeutics
That pretty much sums it up. I had a lymph node removed from my groin June 22. As of right now, we still don’t know what it is. It’s had three diagnoses and the slides are at Harvard for a fourth opinion: uterin sarcoma, osteo sarcoma, and epithelial carcinoma. I started Gerson, supplements, and H2O2 July 9. As of right now they can’t find the primary or any areas of metastasis. For this I thank God! Do you know that they still want to give me a year of chemo? The reasoning is that I a healthy 36 year old. I told the doc I wanted to stay that way.
please add to ping list

As I understand it, normal cells can burn both sugars and ketones. Cancer cells can only burn sugars. Therefore, having a ketogenic diet can slow, stop and/or reverse the cancer.
