The war on cancer has been largely unsuccessful. Indeed, recent data from the American Cancer Society estimates that over 618,000 people will die from cancer in the US this year (DOI: 10.3322/caac.21871). This equates to about 1,700 people dying from cancer each day or about 70 people dying each hour! Unacceptable treatment toxicity contributes to many of these deaths. Moreover, many cancer survivors suffer lifelong health issues linked to the toxic treatments they received. The major 34% reduction of cancer deaths since 1990 has been due largely to the anti-smoking campaigns, and not to the development of non-toxic therapeutic strategies (see supporting data in Figure 8 from the ACS paper). A systemic failure to reduce deaths and to improve the lives of most cancer patients justifies calls for overhauling the National Cancer Institute.
A Paradigm Shift is now Underway in the Cancer Field.
The mitochondrial metabolic theory has replaced the genetic theory as the most credible explanation for the origin of cancer. According to the American Cancer Society over 618,000 people are projected to die from cancer in the US this year (DOI: 10.3322/caac.21871). Shockingly, this comes to almost 1,700 people dying each day or about 70 people dying each hour from cancer! The anti-smoking campaign of the 1990’s was largely responsible for preventing the number of yearly cancer deaths from being even higher. The failure to reduce yearly deaths from malignant cancers has been due in large part to the dogmatic ideology that cancer is a genetic disease according to the long-standing somatic mutation theory. Based on the new understanding that cancer is a metabolic disease, the field can now advance in using more effective and less toxic therapeutic strategies for cancer management & prevention. The biochemical evidence supporting the mitochondrial metabolic theory of cancer is presented in our new paper published in the Journal of Bioenergetics & Biomembranes
(https://t.co/ZyJaO7lXON). The content of the paper is technical but it is important for lay people to see the historical and current scientific evidence required to force a paradigm shift in the cancer field.

@ClashDotNinja Could have left the supercharged effects until we are ready to upgrade em, it's removed for IT & BH now. New update punishing th17 players. It's weaker now unless we instant gem the new IT & BH level. No?
1/7) 🧵Metabolic Health Enthusiasts, listen up! We want to put *Your Data in Your Hands* as part of a 30-day #MetabolicHealth Challenge. Here’s how it will work...
Choose your “rules,” or use those I’ve suggested at the link below.
🩸Then, get your baseline labs, including ApoA, ApoB, HDL, LDL, TG, Cortisol, Insulin, HbA1c, TSH, Ferritin, Vitamin D, Testosterone, FSH, Estrogen, Homocysteine
🔄After 30 days, get follow-up labs and see how the markers in your blood have transformed!
🚨To make this challenge accessible, @siphoxhealth is offering 50% off on 2 testing kits (pre- and post-challenge) testing kits.
*This discount was chosen to ‘break even.’ This isn’t a money-making scheme, but a metabolic health empowerment campaign!
💪We want to empower people to become #citizenscientists, experimenting and refining their health choices to find what works best for their own bodies.
🩸Get you 30d challenge labs kits here: https://t.co/BHuEhS7nv3
And what's data without education? 🧵👇
10 days ago we posted a video in which I spoke about our recent study showing that cancer cells ferment high rates of glutamine. More than 1,700 of you have commented on that video, and many of you have requested more information about how that data intertwines with metabolic therapy. This month we plan to address many of your inquiries. In the meantime, those of you who prefer to interact with the scientific literature itself can read the paper here: https://t.co/ml8Lmf1g5c. You can also see the full video clip here: https://t.co/wbISvqzy3D
All clinical studies of cancer should be targeting glucose and glutamine while the patient is in nutritional ketosis, because the science tells us that's what we should do. The cancer cells themselves are telling us this is what we should do. (Full clip https://t.co/HeIpkCDX4d…)
Our recent paper provides the missing piece to Otto Warburg's central theory that cancer is a mitochondrial metabolic disease. We now know how to kill the beast without toxicity. https://t.co/pSz3yz2Rt3
🔴Food Dyes Might Actually be a Problem🟡
But there’s a bigger one!
Let’s review data and apply reason. (Links at end)
1/5) Context: The debate over the potential harms of artificial food dyes is heating up given the appointment of @RobertKennedyJr as head of HHS and the protestors who swarmed Kellogg’s demanding the removal of artificial dyes from foods like kids' cereals.
👉The most common of these is Red40, with an annual production of 2.3 Million Kg per year! - Think Doritos, Gatorade, Froot Loops, Popsicles, Gums. It’s everywhere!
👉But is there a real cause for concern, or is this just hype? Let’s dig in. I want to start with a sample of data on Red40, Yellow 6 and inflammatory bowel disease.
Then, I’ll apply a twist…
There are some hospitals now opening "medicine for cancer survivors," because there are patients experiencing a new realm of health issues as a result of surviving these horrific, toxic treatments.
However, with metabolic therapy we can manage cancer without toxicity.
Cancer patients, or anybody for that matter, can calculate their GKI by measuring their blood/glucose level (in millimolar) and dividing it by their blood/ketone level (in millimolar).

🧵Food Dyes are a Problem. There's a Bigger One...🧵
#StayCurious#MetabolicHealth
1/8) The debate over the potential harms of artificial food dyes has taken center stage in recent months given the army of protestors that swarmed the Kellogg’s headquarters in Michigan in October, collecting >400,000 signatures to protest the presence of artificial food dyes in foods like children’s breakfast cereal.
Is there actually cause for concern, or is this just bluster and hype?
And, also, what does @RobertKennedyJr likely not know about Food Dyes?
(Yes, A Harvard Med student and PhD just poked RFK. Let's see if it works...)

Cc @DrJBhattacharya (I would be particularly interested in your take on this matter. I also hope to hear you on @hubermanlab, cc @scicomm@R_Mohr. I think everyone wants to hear that discussion)
I'm sure @calleymeans, @CaseyMeansMD, @bigfatsurprise and @BenBikmanPhD will have "thoughts"
🥓I Ate 600 Strips of Bacon 🥓
🫀Here’s What Happened to My Cholesterol🫀
1/4) In an N =1 experiment modeled on the #720Eggs Eggperiment, I dropped my LDL by 22% while eating 600 strips of bacon over 20 days.
That’s 21,000 Calories from bacon while eating ~300 grams of fat per day, and buckets of saturated fat, and I was able to drop my cholesterol.
Here’s what you need to know…
This is Thomas Seyfried.
He's a scientist who's dedicated 30+ years to researching cancer.
His message? Cancer IS preventable.
It's caused by lifestyle factors, not genetics.
Here are Seyfried's 7 MOST important rules for preventing cancer:
