Producing deuterium-depleted water is a complex and technically challenging process. Deuterium levels on Earth have increased over time, potentially affecting human physiology. Deuterium-depleted water may have benefits for those seeking to improve their health and performance. Natural methods such as fasting, a ketogenic diet, and sweating can help lower deuterium levels. Testing deuterium levels at home can provide insights into the effectiveness of deuterium-depleted water. Deuterium depleted water shows potential as a metabolic intervention and may have benefits in fighting diseases like cancer. Education and choice play a crucial role in making informed decisions about health and wellness. Hydrogen is believed to have antioxidant properties and can be beneficial in deuterium depletion. Water purity is important in hydrogen machines to ensure optimal performance and hydrogen production. Deuterium depleted water has a distinct taste and familiarity that is appealing to many individuals. Practical applications of deuterium depleted water include diluting it with regular water to achieve desired deuterium levels.

Mechanical forces and architecture may not sound very "bio", but they are key tools of epidermal stem cells. These stem cells essentially engineer their environment by producing both the cells above them (the skin cells) and the extracellular matrix mesh (the basement membrane) that they sit on. In this episode we explore whether, when these stem cells acquire oncogenic mutations (the ones that cause cancer), do they now architect in a different way, and does this influence the development of cancer?Host Lauren Richardson and Professor Elaine Fuchs of Rockefeller University discuss her lab's recent Nature article "Mechanics of a multilayer epithelium instruct tumour architecture and function". The article investigates the differences in mechanical forces and tissue architecture in two distinct types of skin cancer: one that tends to be begin and non-invasive and one that tends to be aggressive and metastatic. The conversation covers how computational modeling played a critical role in uncovering new sources of forces and how changes in architecture influence invasive properties.

is a groundbreaking look at the role of water in living organisms that ultimately brings us closer to answering the riddle of the etiology of, and therapy and treatment for, cancer. When President Nixon launched the War on Cancer with the signing of the National Cancer Act of 1971 and the allocation of billions of research dollars, it was amidst a flurry of promises that a cure was within reach. The research establishment was trumpeting the discovery of oncogenes, the genes that supposedly cause cancer. As soon as we identified them and treated cancer patients accordingly, cancer would become a thing of the past. Fifty years later it’s clear that the War on Cancer has failed―despite what the cancer industry wants us to believe. New diagnoses have continued to climb; one in three people in the United States can now expect to battle cancer during their lifetime. For the majority of common cancers, the search for oncogenes has not changed the treatment: We’re still treating with the same old triad of removing (surgery), burning out (radiation), or poisoning (chemotherapy). In , Dr. Cowan argues that this failure was inevitable because the oncogene theory is incorrect―or at least incomplete―and based on a flawed concept of biology in which DNA controls our cellular function and therefore our health. Instead, Dr. Cowan tells us, the somatic mutations seen in cancer cells are the result of a cellular deterioration that has little to do with oncogenes, DNA, or even the nucleus. The root cause is metabolic dysfunction that deteriorates the structured water that forms the basis of cytoplasmic―and therefore, cellular―health. Despite mainstream medicine’s failure to bring an end to suffering or deliver on its promises, it remains illegal for physicians to prescribe anything other than the “standard of care” for their cancer patients―no matter how dangerous and ineffective that standard may be―and despite the fact that gentler, more effective, and more promising treatments exist. While Dr. Cowan acknowledges that all of these treatments need more research, is an impassioned plea from a long-time physician that these promising treatments merit our attention and research dollars and that patients have the right to information, options, and medical freedom in matters of their own life and death. Dr. Cowan, MD, is a veteran family physician who has studied and written about many subjects in medicine, including nutrition, homeopathy, anthroposophical medicine, and herbal medicine. He is the author of : A Doctor’s Quest to Understand, Treat, and Prevent Cardiovascular Disease and the new book from Chelsea Green Publishing. He is also a founding board member of the Weston A. Price Foundation, and a frequent lecturer throughout the US and Canada. He's also the same doctor I mentioned in when I talked about how your “heart is not a pump”. He also produces some of the most fantastic vegetable powders in existence, which I use every day: My previous episodes with Dr. Cowan include: - ). - - He also published the fascinating article on my website entitled: - . Dr. Cowan's other excellent books include: During our discussion, you'll discover: -Whether or not the efficacy of chemotherapy has ever been studied [7:45] President Nixon announced "War on Cancer" in 1971; promised it would be gone within 10 years Early 1990's, German statistician announces 2.9% of stage 3&4 cancer patients see improvement with chemo Early 2000's, Australian government commissions a study for all stages; Concluded that 2.3-2.4% show improvement Decreased quality of life; marginally longer life expectancy in chemo patients -Why a reduction in tumor size isn't always a good thing [12:00] Any study not involving life expectancy is called a "surrogate study" Reduction in size can result in a compromised immune system which perpetuates the need for chemo -Dr. Cowan's thoughts on the current theories upon which modern cancer treatments are based [15:30] "Oncogene" or "somatic mutation" theory came to light in 1971 Mutation in a somatic chromosome, which drives the cancer Actual results: everyone has different somatic mutations Biotech industry is based on finding problematic mutations, which are impossible to decipher After 40 years of war on cancer, over 95% of treatment has nothing to do with the oncogene theory Oncogenes are not the root cause of cancer when you get right down to it Mutations are a consequence of an improperly functioning cell, not the cause of it When you transfer the nuclei from a cancerous cell to a healthy cell, the healthy cell will not become cancerous; however, if you transfer the cytoplasm from a cancerous cell, the healthy cell will develop cancer - and his contributions to current cancer treatments [25:00] All cancers feel different (rock like) compared to other tissue Cells have a charge around them, and when two similarly charged cells come together, they keep their distance Strength of the charge determines the density of the tissue (why different organs have different textures) Halo of charges come from sodium/potassium gradient Always start with the charge: walk barefoot, swim in the ocean, sunlight, expose to heat and cold, mineral water Sodium/potassium pump is a myth "The contents of the cytoplasm are structured water" -The form of water while it's inside the cytoplasm [35:10] It's gel-like, not the forms we usually think It's a mesh that binds to the potassium in the cell, excludes the sodium, and maintains the sodium/potassium gradient Structured water forms similar to Jello ATP molecule acts as the heat that activates the gel (energy currency) Watery matrix the DNA resides in is what determines which part of the DNA will be expressed The DNA is an expression of an "idea" or a creator, and the "idea" is the water -How the integrity of the DNA and cytoplasm is damaged, thus enabling cancer to form [43:15] Cells lose charge, clump together, form a tumor Aneuploidy: the presence of an abnormal number of chromosomes in a cell Reversing the loss of charge, restoring the cell would be a more efficacious treatment for cancer than radiation, surgery, chemo, etc. Cytoplasm is akin to the birth of Jesus Christ Lourdes healing water (in France) -Gerson Therapy, Quinton and cancer treatment [50:15] "The problem with cancer is the problem of sodium/potassium" Created a juicer that extracts cytoplasm from fruits and veggies Gerson's protocol was based on increasing potassium, reducing sodium Rene Quinton's sea water (natural way of structuring water) is a mineral-rich water put through a vortex -The reason why Dr. Cowan does not treat cancer patients in his practice [57:45] -How plants and mushrooms are used to treat cancer [59:15] Mistletoe is the most used, most successful natural treatment To be injected subcutaneously Mistletoe is not currently available in the U.S. -Whether deuterium-depleted water could be an effective treatment for cancer [1:03:10] Deuterium (D2O) interferes with ability of mitochondria to generate ATP, and has different physical chemical properties from water Dr. Cowan is disappointed w/ the current state of deuterium-depleted water manufacturers "If you have cancer, or might get cancer, you should drink deuterium-depleted water." -Whether oral or IV administration is optimal for Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) [1:10:15] NADH is better than NAD -The value of electronic devices such as the Rife for treating cancer [1:13:30] -How melatonin is used for cancer therapy [1:15:45] -And much more...

Dr Farge meets with ecancertv at EACR 2016 to discuss how mechanistic pressures from tumour cells on surrounding tissues that can lead to the spread of cancer. This is in contrast to spread of cancer through molecular signalling and cellular division, and Dr Farge describes how the physical pressure exerted by tumours can upregulate tumourigenic signalling in healthy cells. He describes the methodology behind these experiments, using magnetic liposomes to mimic tumour growth pressures.

Alterations in oncogenes are critical steps in the development of endometrial cancer. To investigate the potential clinical relevance of the amplification of the oncogenes c-erbB2, c-myc, and int-2 and the mutation of K-ras in endometrial cancer, 112 tumors were examined using PCR-based fluorescent DNA technology. Amplification of the three oncogenes and the mutation of K-ras were correlated with age, tumor size, lymph node status, metastases, stage, histological types, grade, steroid hormone receptor expression (estrogen receptor, ER; progesterone receptor, PgR), family history of cancer, previous history of cancer or precursor lesions, and previous history of hormone replacement therapy. Oncogene amplification of c-erbB2 was detected in 18.9%, of c-myc in 2.7% and of int-2 in 4.2%, and K-ras mutation in 11.6%. No significant correlations could be detected between amplification of c-erbB2 and any of the other parameters. Mutation of K-ras is associated with positive expression of PgR. This might indicate that mutation and activation of K-ras are involved in the development of hormonal independence in endometrial cancer.
