Ketones Killing Cancer

This is an article that was just published on The Truth about Cancer website...


Ketone Bodies Feed Your Brain, Not Cancer

The brain needs glucose 24 hours a day to function. Since sugar feeds cancer, the brain is taking in sugar 24 hours a day and the cancer is being fed 24 hours per day. However, if you understand the brain, you will also know there is another FUEL the brain will use and prefers over sugar – it’s ketone bodies or keto acids. Ketones are what your body produces when it converts fat (as opposed to glucose) into energy.

I made the switch immediately to get my body in ketosis, so the only fuel my brain was getting was ketone bodies. Normal healthy brain cells use ketones for fuel but cancer cells (because their mitochondria is damaged) cannot use ketone bodies and the cancer begins to die. I still monitor my body to make sure my sugars are low and I am in ketosis.

Toxins Destroy the Brain

There are many toxins that can pass the blood brain barrier and affect the brain. You have to minimize your exposure to toxins immediately.

Example: Environmental toxins, heavy metals, household products and cleaners, perfumes, colognes, lotions, etc. One of the hardest toxicities that damages your brain are artificial sweeteners, sucralose, Splenda®, Sweet N Low®, etc. Say NO to sugar-free processed foods that contain these artificial sweeteners, along with diet sodas, diet drinks or pretty much “diet” anything. You must read your labels. But then again, whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, salad greens, etc. don’t need labels. They are real foods. Eat more of those and minimize the processed foods!

Test....Don’t Guess
Cancer is always secondary. You need to run tests to find the cause(s) of your cancer and monitor those.

Here is a brief list of some of the more important tests to do:

Toxicity Tests
Vitamin D
Hormone Panel
Thyroid panel
Fatty Acid Ratio
Leaky Gut
Leaky Brain
Food Sensitivities (IgG, IgA)

Fat Doesn’t Make You Fat – It Makes You Healthy

My favorite healthy fat I eat all day long is coconut oil. Coconut oil contains medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) and they are a great source of ketone bodies, since coconut oil is about 66 percent MCTs. Every meal and snack has to include lots of healthy fats as well as drinking a ketogenic shake 3-4 times per day. This is the easiest way to stay in ketosis and produce ketone bodies.

Stop Inflammation!

Whatever affects the colon, affects the brain immediately! I ask my patients this, “if you were to drink 3 shots of whiskey, how fast would your brain feel it?” They say, “immediately.” That’s because the colon affects the brain immediately. You have to stop inflammation and stop damaging your colon immediately and repair it.

What will damage and create inflammation in your gut and then in your brain?

Gluten
Dairy
GMOs
Food sensitivities
Medications (NSAIDs, birth control, pain medications, etc.)
Bad fats, caffeine, processed soy, and alcohol
High and low cortisol (excess stress)

This is just the beginning steps to reversing brain cancer. All cancers are a multi-factorial and multi-system failure. You didn’t get cancer and then get sick, you have been sick and toxic for years and THEN you got cancer. The cancer is secondary, not primary. The only cure for cancer is to get to the cause(s).

4 Drinks You Must Avoid!

Here are 4 drinks YOU MUST avoid as much as possible if you want to be truly healthy:

1. 100% Fruit Juice - Sugar, sugar and more sugar...While 100% fruit juice is a better choice than drinking some fake high-fructose corn syrup juice, it still has almost all of the blood sugar regulating fiber stripped out of the fruit, potentially creating a fat storing bonanza in your body, lowers the immune system and sets you up for disease.

2. Soy Milk - Without question, most soy milk has become too sugary and is controlled by the same food and beverage giants that are still manufacturing and marketing other products that promote degenerative disease. Also MOST soy is genetically modified (GMO) and making you sicker not healthier.

3. Frappuccino – This tempting choice of HIGH SUGAR coffee also hides several hundreds of calories in one drink, and before you know it you might down up to 500 calories while talking with friends at the coffee shop making yourself SICK!

4. Zero Calorie Flavored Waters – Trying to trick you with 0-calorie claims, most of these still use artificial sweeteners that have been proven to block the absorption of nutrients into your body in a variety of studies and also destroys your health.
