Travis Christofferson is the science writer behind Tripping Over the Truth, and the case he makes is one of the most quietly radical ideas in modern medicine: that we may already have the tools to treat most cancers, most of the time, and that the reason we don't use them has more to do with entrenched paradigms than with the limits of science.In this episode, Travis walks Aubrey through the metabolic theory of cancer, the century-old insight (first glimpsed by Nobel laureate Otto Warburg in the 1920s) that cancer behaves less like a genetic accident and more like a disease of broken cellular energy. They get into why cancer cells ferment sugar instead of breathing oxygen, why that single difference flips the entire treatment model on its head, and why a PET scan, which lights up tumors using radiolabeled glucose, is staring at the answer every single day. Travis explains how starving cancer cells with fasting and the ketogenic diet makes healthy cells more robust while putting malignant ones under lethal stress, and how repurposed generic drugs (ivermectin, fenbendazole, metformin) may be quietly doing the same thing through mechanisms almost nobody is studying.The conversation widens into something bigger than biology: why a system built on FDA monotherapy trials and patent incentives ignores cheap combination therapies that could change everything, how fear short-circuits our ability to think clearly when a diagnosis lands, and why the most hopeful reframe of all is to stop waging war on our own sick cells and start trying to heal them. Aubrey shares the personal loss that drew him to this work, and the strange peace that came from realizing there might actually be a path.We discuss: the metabolic theory of cancer and how it differs from the genetic model, Otto Warburg and the golden age of unencumbered science, why cancer cells ferment glucose (the Warburg effect), the mitochondria as little sick patients rather than enemies to be killed, how fasting and ketosis starve tumors while strengthening healthy cells, the role of insulin and IGF-1 as growth signals, hexokinase two and how repurposed drugs may block it, the ivermectin and mebendazole observational cancer data, why generic drugs never get the trials they deserve, the "plagues of prosperity" and the modern toxic load, how fear and tribalism distort medical decision-making, and Travis's prophylactic protocol (quarterly keto plus hyperbaric oxygen) for staying ahead of disease.Check out Travis Christofferson's books | https://tinyurl.com/y6d7n5pk| Travis Christofferson | ►Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/travis_christofferson/This episode is sponsored by►Metal Mark Gold Aurum Collectable Art | https://mtlmrk.com/►Korrect Life | https://korrectlife.com/| Aubrey Marcus |►Website | https://www.aubreymarcus.com/►Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/aubreymarcus►Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/AubreyMarcus/►X | https://x.com/aubreymarcus►Substack: https://www.aubreymarcus.com/blogs/substack► Love To The Seventh Power: https://chakaruna.com/collections/booksSubscribe to the Aubrey Marcus podcast:►iTunes | https://apple.co/2lMZRCn ►Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2EaELZO ►IHeartRadio | https://ihr.fm/3CiV4x3 ►Partner with the Aubrey Marcus Podcast | https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/booking
What Causes Cancer? The Truth Most Doctors Don't Talk AboutIn this episode of Intellectual Medicine, Dr. Stephen Petteruti explores the relationship between cancer, metabolism, sugar, insulin, body fat, and prostate cancer progression. He discusses the Warburg theory, which suggests that cancer may begin with dysfunctional mitochondrial metabolism, and compares it with the later focus on genetic causes of cancer. While he argues that the idea of “starving cancer” by eliminating sugar is too simplistic, he also emphasizes that metabolic health plays a real role in cancer risk and progression.The episode focuses heavily on prostate cancer, which Dr. Petteruti describes as unique compared with other cancers. He argues that conventional approaches often overlook the environment in which cancer develops, including excess body fat, high insulin, elevated blood sugar, inflammation, and poor metabolic health. He also discusses tests such as fasting insulin, hemoglobin A1c, and continuous glucose monitoring, as well as the importance of nutritional and behavioral change. The episode closes with a warning against extreme diets, oversimplified supplement advice, and one-size-fits-all cancer theories.Timestamps:(00:00) What Causes Cancer?(01:02 )The Warburg Theory(02:14) Genetics vs. Metabolism(04:22) Why “Starving Cancer” Is Too Simplistic(05:42) Body Fat, Insulin, and Prostate Cancer(08:30) Tests That May Help Assess Metabolic Health(10:47) Food, Weight Loss, and Cancer Risk(13:42) The Anti-Cancer Lifestyle(15:04) Toxins, Viruses, and Parasites(16:15) NAD, Mitochondria, and Supplement Caution(17:33) Growth Hormone, IGF-1, and Cancer Risk(19:12) Why Extreme Dieting Is Not the AnswerEnjoy the podcast?

In this episode, Cheryl sits down with Brad Pitzele to unpack a long and complicated health journey that began with early autoimmune symptoms and escalated into psoriatic arthritis, debilitating fatigue, and eventually melanoma linked to immunosuppressive treatment. Frustrated by a system that offered only escalating medications and limited answers, Brad began an intense period of self-experimentation and research. His turning point came after a Lyme disease diagnosis, one that helped connect years of seemingly unrelated symptoms. This ultimately pushed him deeper into understanding the root causes of chronic illness, especially the role of mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation. From there, the conversation shifts into the tools that helped Brad reclaim his health, including exercise with oxygen therapy (EWOT) and red and near-infrared light therapy. He explains how both approaches work at a cellular level to improve oxygen delivery, support mitochondrial function, and reduce inflammation. Thseare are all mechanisms that have implications for conditions like chronic fatigue, autoimmune disease, multiple sclerosis and even cardiovascular health. This episode is a deep dive into resilience, curiosity, and the power of continuing to search for answers when conventional paths fall short, offering both practical insight and hope for anyone navigating complex or unexplained health challenges.

He has a really interesting background with some challenging diseases and scenarios that he went through. And you know, like many of the guests on the HealNursery podcast, he just has a health journey that he wants to share with people and kind of what ended up actually helping him. Because so often people go down these roads with different conditions and they just have a lot of trouble finding out number one what it is, number two if there’s anything that can help them feel better or how to treat it. And so I think Brad’s going to have a lot of really interesting things to share with us today. So Brad, if you could just maybe start by, I don’t know how far in the way back machine you want to go, but kind of just, you know, give us a little bit about your health journey. And as we go along, I’m sure I’ll have some kind of questions to fill in for everyone. Brad Pitzele (00:50)Yeah, I had weird health things going on since grade school. I was diagnosed with psoriasis, but then I had other weird things that just kind of came and went. We’d go to the doctor, they’d give it a label. It would last for a while. There was no treatment for said label and then it would kind of just disappear and then I’d move on with life and then a year or six months or whatever, something else might pop up. But it really kind of started to come to a head. Um, probably around 2010 or 11, I started to develop autoimmune arthritis, what was considered psoriatic arthritis, which is, it’s basically like rheumatoid arthritis, but it’s what you get with psoriasis. Um, and they started to test all sorts of different drugs on me. The first sets didn’t work. Then they put me on, um, some immune suppressive drugs. They gave me relief for like maybe six months and they’d start wearing off and they would double the dose and they’re. I was kind of worse off when it wore off and then it would kind of bring me up a little bit. And then was kind of like I was taking a stair step into, you know, into a worse and worse place. And I was on those drugs for probably about two years. And then I developed melanoma. And that’s one of the side effects of the drugs is it’s got a high risk of cancer and specifically melanoma. So that was kind of a, a jumping off point for me. I, during that period, I also started to develop weird other symptoms. Like I started to get stiffness in the back of my legs. had tremendous brain fog and energy issues. had pain in my feet and I would take this back to the rheumatologist and I’d be like, this is, is this part of the, this disease? assume. he was like, no, that’s not part of the disease. And I was kind of shocked and like, well, it feels like part of the disease. It’s kind of, you know, it’s just. Cheryl McColgan (02:38)All right. Brad Pitzele (02:41)another symptom of whatever’s going on with me. But he didn’t really acknowledge that. And then when I got cancer, I went back to him and I was like, Hey, you know, I’m really afraid I’m like, if I keep taking these drugs, more risk of cancer. I don’t take these drugs. I, you know, I die, cripple crumpled up in a ball in the corner, so to speak. And he was kind of like, no, I don’t think that’s going to happen. Yeah. I think we’re just going to try another drug in the, the, the same category. And that was like, just started having alarm bells in my head. Just started shouting at me. was like, either path feels like it’s very bad. And I was a, I had a young children at the time. I was a relatively new father and that was even more scary. I was kind of the single income in the household. And I just started like, I’m like, what happens if these things happen to me to not just me, but my family. and that’s kind of when I started jumping off and like doing my own research and trying to figure out what I call a third path for because neither of those really made sense to me. Cheryl McColgan (03:40)those both sound like not very good options. I’m just kind of curious when you were going back to the doctor with these things, kind of two questions here actually. One, and I think I already know the answer, but one, were drugs the only answer that this doctor was able to give to you? And secondly, I think having the cancer being a known side effect of the drug is really interesting. you ever talk about what the mechanism there is or anything to know about that just for people with curiosity? Brad Pitzele (04:07)Yeah, so yeah, mostly it was drugs. He did also offer me injections of steroids into some of my joints. He was very skilled at it, because he said it was gonna be very painful. It wasn’t that painful, but steroids turn off your immune system. And it’s the same thing with some of the drugs I was on. One of them was a… I won’t call brand name, but it was a TNF inhibitor. TNF stands for tumor necrosis factor. And it’s basically in a component of our immune system. And so there was some research done and they found that if they turned off that component of your immune system, hey, the pain and symptoms go away. Unfortunately, as the name alludes to, it kills tumors. when you turn it, we all have cancer in our Cheryl McColgan (04:49)Yeah Brad Pitzele (04:52)body. Like right now as we speak, everyone has it. It’s just our immune system is able to kill it off and so it never really gains a foothold. But once you start tipping the balance of the scales, obviously, you know, it can run amok. And that’s what happened in my case. Cheryl McColgan (05:08)Yeah, very interesting. also it just brings up so many other questions that I’ll have to go down a rabbit hole after we’re done with our conversation. But so you had these things, you didn’t have good relief, you were still having symptoms, then you got cancer. And I assume obviously you had to get treated for that at that point. Was that really the turning point for you to just be like, I’ve got to find some other way to manage this? How did how did things go from there? Brad Pitzele (05:30)Yeah, it was, and I’m not gonna tell you it was a fast turn for me. It took me several years. But I mean, from there, I just started reading anything I could. I read books, I was out on the internet, I was in chat groups talking to other people who had similar symptoms, Facebook groups, Googling on PubMed, looking at research, so many rabbit holes I ran down. I was joking, I’m recovering engineer. ⁓ I got my undergraduate in mechanical engineering, so I’m very analytical by my nature, I suppose. Research didn’t scare me, and I just was reading anything I could. I wasn’t gonna… Cheryl McColgan (05:55)You Brad Pitzele (06:07)You know, wait for them to find something in the research and then try to translate it 20 years later. Like that does me no good. and I tried everything. I did a lot of self experimentation, everything from complete changes of diet, supplements, so many, mean, different modalities, all sorts of weird stuff. Sometimes my family looked at me pretty good side, I when they saw some of the stuff I was doing. but you know, when you’re, when you’re really desperate and. things are getting worse and worse. And particularly when you also feel this responsibility and obligation to your family, you just, it’s not even just about you. You’re like, what do I do? I like, I’m gonna disappoint all these people and life is not gonna be good for them. I just told myself, I’m not allowed. know, like this is absolutely not allowed. This is not gonna happen, but it kept happening for a few more years. And then, I ended up at a doctor’s office and he tried all sorts of things. Nothing was working. He was an MD, but he was non-insurance, so was integrative. And he was trying all sorts of alternate modalities on me. Even the things he was sure were gonna do anything, nothing was doing anything. He’s doing testing on me, nothing was popping. And then he suggested I do a Lyme disease test. I remember thinking, I’m like, doctor, I don’t have Lyme disease. I’m like, I’ve never been bitten by one of these ticks. I’ve never had that bullseye rash thing. I’m thinking to myself, I don’t have that. But I was kind of like, you know what? And it was expensive test at the time. It was like 500 bucks. Insurance didn’t pay. But I was like, you know what? I’m gonna pay the 500 bucks. I’m gonna do the test so he can see it’s negative and we can get him off this Lyme thing. We can get to the real deal because it’s not Lyme. And sure enough, it came back that I had Lyme disease and one of its co-infections called Bartonella, which is the infection that causes cat scratch disease as well. And I was so shocked. went back to him. was like, doc, what’s the chances this is a false positive? I don’t think I have it. And he was like, Brad, it’s a urine PCR, which means you have the DNA of those bacteria in your urine. What do you think is the chances it’s, it’s false positive? I’m like, got it. Cheryl McColgan (08:12)Not. Brad Pitzele (08:14)And that’s when it finally started to hit. ⁓ Cheryl McColgan (08:16)Well, just for people that aren’t familiar, I think everybody’s kind of heard of Lyme disease at some point, maybe Bartonella, but what did that kind of mean to you at the time? Like I’m sure once you got that diagnosis, you wanted to learn more about it. Were you thinking that that explained some of the things that you had up to this point or how did that mesh into the whole symptom profile? Brad Pitzele (08:36)Life disease is incredibly challenging. for a variety of reasons. One, it’s very difficult to get under control. There’s a lot of folks in America and across the world, quite frankly, suffering with it right now. The other reason it’s tough is there’s not a lot of doctors willing to treat it. There’s this whole stigma about it. What makes it particularly difficult is there’s this question on if it actually exists in some doctor’s head. It’s like the weirdest thing in the world. We know there’s this infectious agent, we know it infects humans, and yet when a human comes to the doctor and says, I’ve been infected by it, they’re like, are you sure? And so you kind of get, I think the term I hear often is medical gas lit. And on top of that, doctors, for legal reasons, often don’t want to touch it. So my doctor didn’t want to touch it. And he was like, look, you have to go to a Lyme specialist three hours away. I recommend him as best I can. And it was a long waiting list to get into this doctor’s office. And while I was waiting, just… I was relentless, you I just couldn’t sit here and let myself deal with all this. It was a three month wait. And so I just started reading voraciously on Lyme disease to your point. was reading all sorts of research. I was reading books on it, a lot of books on the, like the science and what was happening to your body mechanically. And it was actually pretty eye opening because when I started to read all these symptoms, I was like, I started to piece together all these pieces, the puzzle that happened to me in my childhood, ⁓ things that happened Cheryl McColgan (10:12)Mm. Brad Pitzele (10:13)more recently, things that the rheumatologist couldn’t explain, but now we’re clear as day what was going on. And so the jigsaw puzzle started to fall into place for me. So it was kind of an epiphany from that perspective, yeah. Cheryl McColgan (10:29)Yeah, that’s got to be the waiting had to be one of the hardest things, I’m sure. then once you finally got to him, did he because he was specialized in Lyme specifically, did he have any solutions for you? Or then was it somewhere that you still had to go to go down the road? Brad Pitzele (10:42)No. You know, the disappointing thing is, I ended up, the whole family was diagnosed with Lyme disease, not just me, my children and so forth. So we all carted in the car down three hours from, I live in Dallas area down in Austin. He had a lot of things to say to us. It was kind of stuff I’d already read. Most of it I’d already tried. know, supplements I’d already run through myself and like it became cost prohibited both the time and the visitation and we just didn’t get anywhere. So we probably visited him. five or six times and then I was like, okay, well this is not, know, and was, each time it was kind of clear, like his tools were somewhat limited. And so then it was time to kind of, while I was doing his stuff, I was also just actively experimenting. was, you know, was a, you know, a test dummy every set, every second of it, because again, you know, you just can’t wait, you know, come back in two months. You’re like, if this thing doesn’t work in a few weeks, I got to, I’ll keep doing it, but I’ll add other things. See where I go. Cheryl McColgan (11:46)Right, well, I’m sure once you knew that your whole family had this issue that probably made you want to solve it even more, not that it wasn’t enough for you to solve it for yourself, but now you’ve got other people in your family that you want to feel well, you know? Brad Pitzele (11:53)Yes. Absolutely, absolutely. was definitely set heavy on my mind. Just I didn’t want the kids to have to go down this path. Cheryl McColgan (12:06)So this kind of leads us into this whole backstory into the sign that’s behind your head right now, 1000 roads, because you kind of did that many roads to get here, right? And so what did you come across? I thought that was like one of the best business names I’ve ever seen, the way, knowing the backstory. But anyway, what was it that you found in the research or what led you to kind of, there’s a couple of things that did end up helping you, which is awesome, because I think now we’re going to share this with people because Brad Pitzele (12:16)Yeah, that’s right. you Thank you. Cheryl McColgan (12:35)Like you said, there’s plenty of people out there with Lyme disease. There’s plenty of people out there with unexplained illnesses or things that are affecting them. And, you know, there are some interesting tools that do work, worked in your case. So how did you end up finding what actually ended up working for you? Brad Pitzele (12:50)Well, I eventually started doing a lot of research on all sorts of things. And one thing that stuck with me was mitochondrial health. I hear more and more folks talking about it in recent years, which is great, but this is probably about a little 10, 12 years ago. It really wasn’t a well-spoken about area. the more I researched about mitochondrial health, the more I realized this is at the root of everything. So for your listeners, the mitochondria are this little organelle, this little subset inside all of your cells that produce the energy. And they’re extremely fragile. And when they get damaged or they’re not working efficiently, nothing works efficiently because everything takes energy, right? Us talking takes energy, thinking takes energy, moving our muscles, our organs working take energy, repair our immune system, all of it. And so often when you’re dealing with chronic health conditions, particularly when you’re dealing with an infectious agent or even cancers, they go after our mitochondria. because they kind of take the power down in the system and that gives them a leg up on our immune system and our defenses and it allows them to kind of I would call it just burrow deeper into our biology and you know shift the biology to be more favorable towards whatever that is. So for me it that was kind of an epiphany and I delved into a couple tools and the first one was something called exercise with oxygen therapy. also known as EWOT, E-W-O-T. No one was really talking about it. It was kind of the small little thing, not a lot of information out there. And then there was a second one, more folks have heard of today, which is red light therapy, and really red and near infrared light therapy. And they both work through mechanisms that help the mitochondria restore itself. Cheryl McColgan (14:45)Yeah, the exercise, I was looking at the photo on the website of the EWOT contraption and I’m kind of having a hard time conceptualizing. think what, and actually before we go into that, let’s address this other question that came up in my mind when I was looking at the contraption, because I’m like, okay, the thing that most people are probably somewhat familiar with nowadays is a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. And that is used in cancer treatment. think it was, Dr. Seyfried has this thing, and you might be familiar with him just like. through your mitochondrial research, but it’s called like a press pulse thing that they use with cancer patients. And it has to do with ketogenic diet, because you’re starving the cancer of sugar. And then also this hyperbaric oxygen therapy. That’s, that’s all just kind of a weird aside for people that are hearing this, it really has nothing to do with this conversation. But it’s interesting to look up. But for your thing, the hyperbaric works in one way. And I think people like you can visualize it, because you go in and you kind of just lay down. And that’s what it is. But this And when people go to the website, they’ll see it. It’s kind of, looks like a big balloon or a box. So guess I’m having trouble kind of conceptualizing how do you even use that or, how do you exercise with that? That’s a very long winded question, but hopefully we’ll get there. Brad Pitzele (15:47)Yeah. Sure. Well. Yeah, that’s great. So I think it’s two questions. What is it? How does it work sort of thing? Exercise with oxygen therapy at its principles really simple. It simply involves doing any sort of exercise, preferably something that gets your heart rate up, generally cardiovascular exercise, while wearing a mask and breathing near pure oxygen, so about 93 % oxygen. So to your point about how does the contraption or the EWATS system work, it works as, it’s like this, there’s actually a device called an oxygen concentrator that can produce an endless supply of oxygen. You plug it into the wall and you flip the switch and it takes the oxygen in your room, which is probably at like let’s say 21 % at sea level, and it purifies it to 93 % oxygen by separating out the other gases, the nitrogen and the argon. which is great, but these machines that you can plug into your wall, your home outlet, they produce only five or 10 liters of oxygen in a minute. And when you exercise, you can easily use 50 or 60 liters in a minute. So to get a 15 minute session in, you can easily use 900 plus liters of oxygen. And that machine’s only putting out at the best 10 liters of it. And so every minute. And so what we do is we take that machine and we fill a large reservoir to a thousand liters. So think of it as about six feet, five and a half, six feet squared. It looks like a big pillow. And we fill that thing with oxygen. Now to like dimensionalize this for folks, a thousand liters of oxygen is similar to the amount of oxygen you’ll breathe in an entire day. And we’ll fill this, this, you know, bloom, what we call a reservoir with oxygen. And then we’ll attach a hose with a mask on the end of it. Put the mask on and you just breathe out of that reservoir. of water. So again, in that 15 minutes, you can take in a whole day of oxygen. It’s really a massive amount. Now, how does it compare to hyperbaric oxygen? That’s a really good question. Hyperbaric oxygen, at its core, what you do is you get inside of a chamber, they pressurize it, and that forces more oxygen through your lung membrane and into your blood. Now, Once it gets past your lung membrane and into your blood, your, what happens in hyperbaric oxygen is it goes not just into your red blood cells, because if you look at your red blood cells right now, which are the parts of your blood that are designed to carry oxygen, they’re at capacity. Like you can put a little pulse oximeter on your finger and it’ll say 99 % or 100 % or 98%. And so there’s not room for more oxygen, but what hyperbaric does, and EWAT does the same thing, is it actually forces oxygen into your blood plasma. Now blood plasma is this clearish brown liquid, it’s effectively water plus plus, that all the red and white blood cells ride on. And so it can actually turn that into an oxygen carrying vehicle inside your blood, something that normally doesn’t carry very much oxygen. And that’s through a process called Henry’s Law, which goes beyond human biology. It’s really just a chemistry law that says, you take an insoluble gas and enforce it on top of an insoluble liquid, it’ll force the gas to go into solution. In this case, the gas is oxygen and the liquid is blood plasma. Now, in hyperbaric oxygen, the body tries to get back into balance. It notices there’s a surplus of oxygen in the blood. And so your body tries to regulate, go back to homeostasis by using something called vasoconstriction, which means your blood vessels constrict. They get smaller to allow less of that oxygen through. So your body is naturally fighting against delivering that oxygen. In spite of that, you deliver a large dose of oxygen to the tissues. In IWA, what we do is we come to the opposite. Instead of using pressure to force more oxygen into and through your lungs, we use exercise to pull it through. So when you start exercising, your body immediately recognizes that it needs more energy. And the gating factor in producing more energy is oxygen. We all in this Western world generally get enough food. It’s just we’re… When you’re exercising, there’s not enough oxygen. So when it notices this, you have all these physiological changes, right? You start breathing faster and deeper. Your lung membrane actually thins out to allow more oxygen to pass through. Your heart starts beating faster. Every beat is deeper. Your blood vessels actually dilate. They actually open up to allow larger blood flow through them. And then when you exercise, naturally, actually, your blood pressure goes up. And most of us think, no, high blood pressure is bad, but in exercise it’s actually really good because the more pressure inside your blood, that differential between the pressure in your circulatory system and the tissues is like a driving force that drives the oxygen out of the blood and into the tissues. we do EWAT, we’re taking advantage of all those physiological changes to allow us to take in oxygen very quickly and deliver it deeply into the tissues. in a 15 minute EWAT session, you could take in as much oxygen as you would in a hyperbaric session in 90 or more minutes. It’s really quite a large dose. Cheryl McColgan (21:09)Wow. then what about, so how does that affect the mitochondria? Does it just give them more energy and kind of helps them repair quicker? Or what’s the connection between mitochondrial health and the EY? Brad Pitzele (21:16)Thank This is actually the really fascinating part. And this is the thing that really got me more interested in it. EWAT was founded actually in the 1960s and 70s. There was this prolific inventor named Manfred von Arden. He was a German physicist and inventor. He invented the scanning electron microscope. He helped commercialize television technology in the 1930s. And he got interested in oxygen in 1960s and 70s because there was a gentleman named Warburg in the 1920s who had proven that he could take any cancerous cell, any regular cell and turn it into a cancerous cell simply by depriving it of oxygen. And the reverse was true. So Von Arden got interested in that, wanted to start experiment with oxygen, simply trying to reverse cancer. And along the way, what he discovered is something really powerful about our circulatory system, which is as we age, this thing we now refer to as inflammation happens inside our bodies, this slow, gradual increase in inflammation and that affects every part of our body including our circulatory system. But our circulatory system is actually kind of a weak link. At the very end of your circulatory system is your capillaries and they’re incredibly thin and they’re actually the component where the oxygen and the nutrients gets transferred from the circulatory system to the tissues. So you’ve got these really thin capillaries, thinner than a human hair, actually smaller than a red blood cell. In order for a red blood cell to get in a healthy capillary, it has to fold over like a taco to get in because it can’t fit in normal if it’s fully expanded. So there’s not a lot of room for error. And when you start having this inflammation, it causes blockages in the capillaries. So when that happens, you lose circulation downstream. You have what I call a brownout. All the cells on the other side of that inflammation are no longer getting red blood cells, they’re no longer getting oxygen. Luckily, our body does have a backup generator and that’s called anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration is when they create energy without oxygen. But the problem with it is multi-fold. Number one, it only can produce about 5 % of the energy, it can produce what has oxygen. So immediately the cells are like powering down, they’re not able to do all of their essential functions. problem is it produces a massive amount of metabolic waste and free radicals and those things damage our mitochondria because our mitochondria are incredibly fragile as we spoke about earlier and they’re right at the heart of it wherever you’re producing energy you have some free radicals but now when you shift over to anaerobic all of a sudden you’re just spitting out all sorts of damaging chemicals if you will and it has no energy so it has no way to actually clear it and so it becomes I kind of call it’s like a doom loop, which is it starts with dysfunction the dysfunction causes more free radicals which causes more damage and dysfunction and Soon enough, you know, you’ve got these kind of almost zombie cells. They’re just having a hard time Doing anything and then when you do IWA what’s amazing is the oxygen because it’s Inside the plasma it can get through those blockages. So it immediately starts to feed those downstream cells the oxygen they’ve been starving but more importantly than that immediate fix if you will is they cause an anti-inflammatory effect and this was another like big aha in my healing journeys when I realized There’s plenty of research on this. Anywhere in your body you have inflammation, you have the hypoxia, which is the fancy medical term for oxygen starvation. So inflammation means local oxygen starvation. And anywhere you have oxygen starvation, you have inflammation. They go hand in hand. You can’t have one without the other. And so when we restore oxygen, even in the circulatory system, we can turn off that inflammation that’s happening in our capillaries, reestablish normal blood flow. So you get done doing your EWOT sessions. And Von Arden discovered this. had elderly people, he looked at their capillaries and their throughput, and he had them do just a couple sessions of EWOT, and they came back weeks later, and their microcirculation was still reestablished to more youthful levels. So he was able to open them back up where red blood cells were able to deliver oxygen. really at the root of it all is, you know, every chronic illness you can think of, it has inflammation. Right? mean, there’s not one Alzheimer’s, cancer, autoimmunity, the list goes on and on, name one and it has chronic inflammation. And there’s actually, there’s a gentleman, Arthur Guyton, he wrote the textbook, Medical Physiology, and every doctor any of us has ever gone to had to use that medical physiology book. when they went to medical school, it’s been the standard across the world for over 50 years. And he has this great quote where he says all disease at its root is lack of oxygen. And it’s really true because once the mitochondria break down and we start having inflammation, all the negative effects come from downstream from that. And so that was kind of my. Aha. Light bulb moment, which is if I can turn my mitochondria on it, and I can turn down the inflammation and eventually turn off the inflammation. then like my body will have energy to get ahead. can start to repair itself. It can start to detoxify the immune system. Then we’ll have energy to do everything it needs to do and help, you know, kind of kick on and start to fight a good battle, so to speak. Cheryl McColgan (26:58)Yeah, I mean, I want to go back to how this actually helped you and how you actually found one and all that stuff. But my brain is just going, the one thing that I keep coming to hearing your explanation, and that was an amazing explanation, by the way, for lay people, I can tell you’re an engineer or so. The system where you’re talking about going all the way to the capillaries, I heart disease is the number one killer, right? And we have, I think a lot of it is the chronic inflammation that you’re talking about, but. Obviously once that process is already done, you’re describing how the capillaries can’t get any red blood cells. So to me, it would make perfect sense that this might be not only did it help you in your disease process with Lyme disease and the arthritis and everything, but it seems like it would be pretty amazing for cardiovascular patients or people that don’t have good blood flow, like that on top of the mitochondrial benefit. Brad Pitzele (27:41)Hmm It’s actually, we are helping folks with everything from autoimmunity, cancer, Lyme, long COVID, chronic fatigue, Parkinson’s, heart disease, so many things, because if you can turn off the inflammation and you can give the body energy to heal, it will do just amazing things. That was kind of like the shocking thing to me when I first got into it. was like, wait a second. Like every time I was treating myself as a pin cushion and trying something new, I always had to the question like, what if this doesn’t work? and like what damage could I be doing? know, because there were things that were a little bit risky to be quite honest, where I found out risks, you know, a little bit too late for my liking. But this was one where was like, it’s oxygen. And like, so it was kind of shocking when I started looking at the benefits and I was like, this is kind of crazy that we’re talking about something as simple as oxygen with all these health benefits. But yeah, we’ve had folks with all sorts of different chronic cardiovascular conditions Cheryl McColgan (28:31)Right. Brad Pitzele (28:48)Now, there’s a lot of health benefits to it, but the other crazy thing about oxygen is there’s all these athletic performance benefits. And this is important because directly to your cardiovascular component, which is actually a lot of Olympic teams have used EWAT to improve their athletic performance. because athletic teams are very science driven, there’s some really good research on it showing it improves VO2 max, reduces recovery time. improves short-term memory, it improves power output, et cetera. And all of this is really due to being able to fuel our cells and our muscles more, and also helping clear out all that metabolic waste, because that metabolic waste primarily develops when you have a shortage of oxygen when you’re exercising. Cheryl McColgan (29:34)Amazing that something so simple could be so hugely beneficial. So once you finally saw this, you’re like, Werber knew this about cancer and this guy’s onto this exercise with oxygen thing. Like, well, how do you do it? Where do you get it? Like nobody’s ever seen this before. I think like you’re saying the athletic teams might have it and stuff, but I mean, I’ve certainly never been anywhere where I’ve seen like, hey, get EWOT therapy here. So how did you find it? Brad Pitzele (29:56)Yeah, it’s really, really kind of a rare thing. 15 years ago, it was incredibly rare. There really wasn’t anywhere to go. You could find it occasionally. You might find it in a chiropractor’s office here or there or some sort of recovery clinic. Nowadays, they’re more widespread. So there are places that do it, doctors, chiropractors. But for me, there were a couple of folks selling it, but they were… I didn’t have a whole lot of faith. There was no customer reviews. was no customers talking about it on chat. It was just them as the company and they, a lot of them spoke in superlatives and like marketing speak that it just didn’t make me feel really comfortable. And they were very expensive too. you know, they were maybe the cheapest was 5,000 and the most expensive one I saw was 25,000. and it was this kind of cross hatch of I didn’t have confidence and geez, that’s a lot of money for this next experiment when the last Cheryl McColgan (30:31)yeah. Brad Pitzele (30:49)26 behind me didn’t do anything or 57 or whatever it was. So that’s when I kind of decided, did a little bit more research and decided I was going to try to build my own. Cheryl McColgan (31:00)Yeah, was thinking that I was like, I was an engineer, the next thing would be like, can I just build this? So that’s what you did, obviously, right? Brad Pitzele (31:06)I did it out of necessity because I just didn’t have faith. I built my own. didn’t think it was, I’ll be honest, I didn’t think this was gonna be my solution. Nothing else was. And I started doing it and… You know, slowly but surely I started to walk out of that basement, that proverbial basement. I just kept taking steps up and up. At first it was subtle and then it was kind of all at once sort of thing where I was shocked. You know, was like things like, my gosh, my brain fog’s gone. I’m like focusing in a meeting or I just got down on the floor and played with the kids and I don’t need to lay in bed for two days in pain. And you know, slowly but surely I just felt better and better. And it wasn’t until I saw that same doctor again, and he was like, wow, you’re like a year later. And he was like, wow, you’re so much better. What did you do? And I told him, and he’s like, wow, would you consider selling them to my patients? And that was kind of the, you know, jumping off point where I was like, well, gosh, yeah, maybe we could help other people with this. Cheryl McColgan (32:04)Yeah, that’s awesome. I’m so glad, you know, it’s, it’s, it’s always an interesting thing on podcasts because sometimes you get, I think not on this particular podcast, but other ones, it’s like people that kind of are just selling stuff, you know, or snake oil things or whatever. But what I really love is when there are people that, you know, had their own health problem, they dive into the research, they try it all there, use themselves as an experiment as a pin cushion, as you said, and then they find something that actually works. And then they they make it so that they can share it with everybody else. don’t just keep it to yourself, because I’m sure it kind of felt like a miracle at the time if something finally worked for you. Brad Pitzele (32:41)You know, it really was. I was, because the hardest part is also when you’re in these groups and you’re talking to all these other folks and they’re like, oh, try this, nothing worked and then this worked. And you try that thing and it didn’t work. You you try 57 other different things, as I was saying, and you kind of just start losing any hope. You’re like, I don’t think, I think I’m just that case that there’s nothing that’s going to work. But yeah, when you do find it, it’s, yeah, it’s obviously life changing, even having hope and like, I always tell folks like when you’re really sick, it’s not about, you wanna get to 100%, like 100 % is amazing, it’s the dream we all have when we’re sick, but. more important than 100 % is like feeling better this week than last week or this month than last month because at some point when you’re in it, you just lose a lot of hope and it becomes kind of this like the spiral downward that you just don’t believe in anything and it just lowers you spiritually I just say. And having something to know like, hey, Yeah, it still kinda stinks, but like, remember a month ago it was worse, and so like, now you’re like, yeah, I can’t wait to see how I’m gonna be two months from now, you know, or where am gonna be by this summer sort of thing? Like, it was, it’s kinda the exact opposite. It’s kinda like this hope spiral, if you will. Cheryl McColgan (33:55)Yeah. Well, it’s kind of that’s something that I think it’s good to point out for people too, is that, you you mentioned there is all this research on this. There’s a lot of good science to back up mitochondrial health, that’s kind of mitochondrial health is kind of a long game. And it’s kind of something that you have to continually do not over, you know, just a few days and you’re going to feel so much better. It’s week after week, month after month, the more that you support your mitochondrial health, the more chance you have of really feeling better. So it’s not just this thing where you can try it for a week and you’re like, that doesn’t work. You have to keep up on it for a while, right? Brad Pitzele (34:24)Yeah. Yeah, you’re absolutely right in general speaking. mean, we have… people come to me and they ask like, how long am I going to have to do this for? I tell them is, I can’t say how long until you get to the top of the mountain, so to speak, but I find that most folks who get to the top of the mountain, they feel so good when they do it, they don’t ever want to stop. And some of those folks never really exercised, they hated it, but now they’re like, it’s like 15 minutes, I do it three or five times a week, and I feel amazing, so why wouldn’t I do it? And we talked about that capillary thinning, Cheryl McColgan (34:52)Mm-hmm. Brad Pitzele (34:58)That’s actually a chronic thing that happens to all of us in Western society. And so this is something that’s anti-aging at that very kind of cellular level. So I recommend it for folks, but. I guess for me when I was really sick, always say one of the hardest parts was the ceremony is this what they call them. Counting pills every night, doing this protocol, doing that protocol. You keep adding, like if there’s 10 more minutes in your day, you add 10 more minutes of some protocol that you’re hoping will make you feel better. And then you get to a point where you realize you’re spending six hours of your day, you know, just all you’re doing is these protocols and it just becomes overwhelming. like, even if I felt better, what’s the purpose of all I’m doing is going from from the sauna to the this and I’m doing this pill and I’m doing that. And that’s kind of the, what I found, one of the things I really loved about EWOD was it was something I could do consistently in my home, 15 minutes a day. And it helps with your mitochondrial health. It helps with detoxification. It helps with energy. So it’s like, multiple, it’s kind of multifaceted in the way it benefits you. relatively short period of time. Cheryl McColgan (36:07)Yeah, and you mentioned, and I want to be respectful of your time. know we’re kind of getting a little bit long here, but one of the other things when in respect to mitochondrial health is red light therapy. And there’s also a ton of great research on that. And so I kind of wasn’t surprised when I went to your website that that’s something that you also got into. I mean, I think that’s when you look at the number and the breadth of research on that, I think it’s pretty undeniable that it is good for people that serves a real purpose, that it does help the mitochondria. So at what point, Brad Pitzele (36:34)Yeah. Cheryl McColgan (36:35)after you found the EWAT, I’m assuming you kind of got on this mitochondrial health thing and then maybe stumbled into that stuff. that how it went or is there something else? Brad Pitzele (36:44)Yeah, I started looking at it early on, probably about six months after I was doing EWOT, four to six months right in there I’d say, I started doing Red Light. So you’re right, there’s like tens of thousands of peer-reviewed research studies out there and what it does. They work really interestingly together. Because we mentioned EWAT, when you do it, you increase the supply of oxygen massively, right? It’s a day of oxygen in 15 minutes. So you’re flooding your body with oxygen. And then if you do red light immediately afterwards, what it does is the way it primarily works is it increases oxygen demand in your mitochondria. So it forces the mitochondria to suck up more oxygen. And when they do that, they produce more energy. So any of the research you read on red light whether skin health collagen growth bone mental, brain health, me, athletic recovery performance, healing in general, it all comes from the same thing, is that it’s just forcing our mitochondria to suck up more oxygen and produce more energy. So if you compare those two, you compare them at the same time, you first drive a massive increase in supply of oxygen, and then you increase the mitochondrial demand for it, and so you get this kind of one-two punch. The interesting thing is why I think we need it in today’s society as well is we’re actually deficient on red and near infrared light. And the reason is, if you look at the sun, the sun is full spectrum. has everything from ultraviolet and the blues through the reds and the near infrareds. So when you go outside and it changes throughout the day, early and late in the day, you get more of those reds and near infrareds. And at high noon, you get more of the blues. unfortunately, or fortunately, however you want to look at it, over time as as ⁓ species, we’ve moved indoors and we started using indoor lighting primarily and we spend more and more time there. And then more recently, we’ve switched from incandescent to LED lighting. Now, LED lighting is very energy efficient and one of ways they make it incredibly energy efficient is they take out all the reds and the near infrareds that we experience as heat because obviously you don’t want your lighting to heat your room. You don’t want it to, everyone sees that as energy. waste and to that extent you’re trying to use it for lighting it can be. However, that puts us in a place where we spend a lot of time bathed in blue lights and not really getting enough of the reds and the other parts of the spectrum. Cheryl McColgan (39:27)Yeah, that’s another interesting rabbit hole for people to go down if they haven’t already is just the, you know, changing out some of the lighting in your home or using specific lighting for certain scenarios, like in your bedroom and towards night as you’re getting ready to go to sleep. But anyway, I just want to clarify one quick point there, because I’m envisioning, that was actually what I was envisioning when you started talking about the synergy between red light and the EWAT. So do you like do your EWAT with the red light panel like in front of you or do you just do it right after? Brad Pitzele (39:53)Yeah. I prefer to do it right after. The challenge with doing it right on you is to get the best benefit from red light. Red light works on something called a biphasic dose response, fancy science term, which just means the benefits over time look like a bell curve. So too little, you won’t get any benefit. There’s kind of like a just right where you get peak benefit. And then if you do more, it starts diminishing in benefit. It doesn’t harm. It’s just a waste of time, right? So you spent five more minutes to get less sort of thing. Cheryl McColgan (40:21)Mm-hmm. Brad Pitzele (40:22)with exercising in red light is one, I like to get as much skin exposure as possible so you’re hitting as many mitochondria as possible. And two is you’re moving. So sometimes you’re close to the light, sometimes you’re further away. And so you’re not really able to kind of measure that dose effectively to get inside that biphasic kind of peak zone. Cheryl McColgan (40:43)Okay, no, that makes a ton of sense. Although I still am going to put this out to you that, maybe you put at least on, you know, the little face mask while you’re exercising. I feel like you can attach it to the oxygen part, you know, and just put a red light around it. Maybe that’s a little too, maybe that’s a little too much. But anyway, well, Brad, this has been so wonderful. And I just appreciate you so much sharing your whole journey and then how you came to find this. Brad Pitzele (40:51)There you go. It makes yours waterproof. That’d be fun. Cheryl McColgan (41:09)If people want to connect with you online or learn more about EWOT and learn more about Red Light, where’s the best place that they can find you and connect with you?

In this episode of Keeping Abreast, Dr. Jenn Simmons sits down with cancer researcher and author Mark Lintern for a provocative conversation that challenges one of the most deeply rooted assumptions in modern oncology: that cancer is primarily a genetic disease.Drawing from his book The Cancer Resolution?, Mark introduces his Cell Suppression Theory, a framework that argues cancer may be driven less by random mutation and more by chronic inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, immune suppression, and a possible infectious component involving fungal pathogens.Together, Dr. Jenn and Mark explore why the current model of cancer leaves so many unanswered questions, how the metabolic theory shifted the conversation, and why terrain, mitochondria, immune health, toxins, stress, and chronic inflammation may all matter more than most patients have been told.If you are looking for a conversation that challenges conventional thinking and opens the door to a broader view of breast cancer and whole-body health, this episode is a must-listen.What You'll Learn:Why the dominant genetic model of cancer does not fully explain the diseaseWhat the Warburg effect is and why it matters in cancer researchHow the metabolic theory of cancer changed the conversation around treatmentHow chronic inflammation, toxins, immune dysfunction, and tissue damage may create the conditions for cancerWhy mitochondria play a much bigger role in cancer than most people realizeHow fungal pathogens fit into cancer developmentWhy microbiome health, detoxification, and stress regulation matter in prevention and healingWhat makes breast tissue uniquely vulnerable in this conversation around estrogen, immunity, and inflammationEpisode Timeline:00:00 Introduction to a Different Conversation About Cancer04:45 Mark Lintern's Journey Into Cancer Research07:34 Why the Somatic Mutation Theory Falls Short10:41 The Metabolic Theory and the Warburg Effect13:40 The Possible Role of Pathogens in Cancer16:32 The Hallmarks That Define Cancer19:19 Cancer Diagnosis Versus Active Disease22:08 The Cell Suppression Theory Explained27:06 Practical Solutions for Prevention and Healing30:02 Foundations of a More Holistic Cancer Approach33:49 Cortisol, Stress, and the Healing Environment41:49 Why Antifungal Treatments Are So Challenging43:45 Can We Identify the Pathogens Inside Tumors?46:30 Why the System Resists New Cancer Models51:04 Breast Cancer, Estrogen, and Tissue Vulnerability55:21 Estrogen, Inflammation, and Fungal Overgrowth58:55 Final Thoughts on Prevention and Whole-Body HealthLearn more about Mark Lintern and get his book here: https://www.celTo talk to a member of Dr. Jenn's team and learn more about working privately with Dr. Jenn visit: https://calendly.com/stephanie-1031/clarity-callTo get your copy of Dr. Jenn's book, The Smart Woman's Guide to Breast Cancer, visit: https://tinyurl.com/SmartWomansBreastCancerGuideTo purchase the auria breast cancer screening test go here https://auria.care/ and use the code DRJENN20 for 20% Off.Connect with Dr. Jenn:Website: https://www.jennsimmonsmd.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrJennSimmonsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drjennsimmons/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@dr.jennsimmons

What if everything we've been taught about illness only tells half the story? In this episode, Darin dives into one of the most controversial debates in the history of modern medicine: germ theory versus terrain theory. While conventional medicine focuses on identifying pathogens and eliminating them, terrain theory asks a deeper question, why do some people get sick while others exposed to the same pathogen remain perfectly healthy? Tracing the history from Louis Pasteur and Antoine Béchamp to the economic forces that shaped the modern medical system, Darin explores how our internal biological environment, our terrain, may be the real determining factor in health and disease. From cellular voltage and mitochondrial function to microbiome diversity, inflammation, nutrition, toxins, and stress physiology, the science increasingly points toward one central truth: health is shaped by the environment inside the body. Most importantly, Darin breaks down the practical pillars of terrain optimization, simple but powerful daily choices that strengthen resilience, support immunity, and restore the body's natural balance. What You'll Learn The historical battle between germ theory and terrain theory Why exposure to pathogens does not automatically lead to disease The role of Louis Pasteur, Antoine Béchamp, and Claude Bernard in shaping modern medicine How the Flexner Report of 1910 reshaped medical education and marginalized holistic medicine Why modern healthcare often focuses on pathogens instead of the body's internal environment The importance of cellular voltage and mitochondrial health in disease prevention How the microbiome influences immunity, metabolism, and inflammation The surprising connection between vitamin D levels and immune resilience Why chronic inflammation is a central driver of modern diseases How stress, toxins, sleep, and nutrition shape the body's terrain The science behind grounding, sunlight, and circadian rhythm regulation Practical strategies for optimizing your internal terrain and strengthening resilience Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to the SuperLife podcast and the mission of building health sovereignty 00:00:33 – Sponsor: reducing plastic waste with Bite toothpaste tablets 00:02:47 – Introduction to today's topic: germ theory vs terrain theory 00:03:10 – Why Darin began exploring this controversial health debate years ago 00:03:54 – What if everything we've been taught about illness is only half the story? 00:04:35 – How our internal biological environment shapes disease susceptibility 00:05:10 – The importance of optimizing the body's internal terrain 00:06:00 – Looking back to the 1800s: the scientific battle that shaped modern medicine 00:06:17 – Louis Pasteur and the rise of germ theory 00:07:20 – The successes of germ theory: antibiotics, vaccines, and sterilization 00:08:01 – Antoine Béchamp and the foundation of terrain theory 00:08:45 – The concept of microbial polymorphism and environmental adaptation 00:09:40 – When microbes become pathogenic in weakened terrain 00:10:00 – Pasteur's alleged deathbed admission: "The microbe is nothing, the terrain is everything" 00:10:45 – Claude Bernard and the concept of the internal environment 00:11:00 – The Flexner Report and the restructuring of American medical education 00:11:45 – How holistic and integrative medical schools were shut down 00:12:30 – The rise of the pharmaceutical-centered medical model 00:13:00 – Why modern doctors often receive little training in nutrition 00:13:45 – The consequences of a pathogen-centered healthcare system 00:14:00 – How economic interests influenced the trajectory of medicine 00:14:20 – Sponsor: Manna Vitality mineral support and cellular optimization 00:16:11 – The science of terrain and how it shows up across multiple disciplines 00:16:47 – Bioelectricity and the role of cellular voltage in health 00:17:20 – The transmembrane potential and healthy cellular voltage levels 00:17:50 – Otto Warburg's discovery of low oxygen environments in cancer cells 00:18:30 – Dr. Jerry Tennant's research on voltage and chronic disease 00:19:00 – The microbiome revolution in modern science 00:19:30 – Why the body contains roughly 38 trillion microbial cells 00:20:00 – How gut bacteria influence immune response 00:20:30 – Research showing microbiome diversity affects viral susceptibility 00:21:00 – Why exposure to pathogens does not always result in illness 00:21:30 – The role of nutrition, sleep, and stress in immune resilience 00:21:55 – Vitamin D deficiency as a major predictor of disease severity 00:22:30 – Chronic inflammation as the root of modern disease 00:23:00 – Mitochondria: the cellular energy system 00:23:40 – How mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to chronic illness 00:24:00 – The connection between nutrient availability and mitochondrial health 00:24:30 – The pillars of terrain optimization 00:25:00 – Why minerals are foundational for cellular health 00:25:30 – Magnesium deficiency and inflammatory disease 00:26:00 – Building a mineral-rich diet for optimal physiology 00:26:20 – Invitation to the SuperLife Patreon community 00:27:55 – Supporting the microbiome through diet and lifestyle 00:28:20 – Why dietary diversity increases microbial resilience 00:29:00 – The importance of sunlight, grounding, and circadian rhythm 00:30:00 – Sleep and the brain's detoxification system 00:31:00 – Environmental toxins and the body's detox pathways 00:31:45 – Stress physiology and its destructive impact on the terrain 00:33:00 – Rebuilding resilience through lifestyle choices 00:34:00 – Final thoughts on reclaiming control over your health 00:35:17 – Closing message and end of episode Thank You to Our Sponsors Bite Toothpaste: Go to trybite.com/DARIN20 or use code DARIN20 for 20% off your first order.

Without the right internal conditions, the spark simply goes out. But when the terrain is depleted—when our bodies are stressed, inflamed, nutrient deficient, and toxic—that same spark can ignite disease. The power we have is in shaping the terrain every single day." Bibliography/Sources: Bai, Y., Ocampo, J., Jin, G., Chen, S., Benet-Martínez, V., Monroy, M., Anderson, C., & Keltner, D. (2021).

Send a textMitochondria in human evolution, climate adaptation, maternal genetics, aging, and disease.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Endosymbiotic theory: Mitochondria arose from oxidative bacteria engulfed by archaea-like hosts, confirmed by phylogenetic analysis.Maternal mtDNA inheritance: Mitochondrial DNA is inherited from the mother, not the father. There are adaptive reasons for this.Haplogroups & adaptation: Tropical lineages tightly couple energy production for efficiency; northern ones uncouple to generate heat.Heteroplasmy & aging: Mixed mutant and normal mitochondria accumulate in cells, eroding energy in high-demand tissues like brain and heart.Bioenergetics in disease: Many common conditions, from Parkinson's to cancer, stem from mitochondrial-nuclear interactions rather than nuclear genes alone.Ketogenic diets: High-fat intake fuels mitochondrial beta-oxidation, which may compensate for brain energy deficits in epilepsy and bipolar disorder.Warburg effect: Cancer cells shift to glycolysis to prioritize biosynthetic building blocks over maximal ATP production.Modern mismatches: Global travel pairs ancestral mtDNA with mismatched diets and climates, raising risks for metabolic dysfunction.ABOUT THE GUEST: Douglas Wallace, PhD is a geneticist and evolutionary biologist who has studied mitochondria for over 50 years. He currently directs the Center for Mitochondrial and Epigenomic Medicine at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and the University of Pennsylvania.RELATED EPISODE:M&M 260 | Energy Resistance Principle in Life, Healing & Disease | Martin Picard & Nirosha MuruganSupport the showHealth Products by M&M Partners: SporesMD: Premium mushrooms products (gourmet mushrooms, nootropics, research).

In 1938, Nazi officials stripped the Warburg name from a Hamburg bank.At the same time, another Warburg was embedded inside the architecture of the American financial system.This episode investigates how one banking family helped design the operating system of modern money—and why that system outlived empires, republics, and dictatorships.From merchant banking in Hamburg, to German war finance, to the creation of the Federal Reserve, the Warburg story reveals a quieter form of power:• Design the rules of credit • Build institutions labeled “independent” • Become indispensable to every regime They served the Kaiser. They navigated Weimar. They were persecuted by the Nazis. They returned after the war.And the central banking system they helped shape became the backbone of the world's reserve currency.This isn't a story about conspiracy.It's a story about incentives, institutions, and survival.Same playbook. Different century.

Send us a textHow ketosis and ketogenic diets work and how these tools can improve metabolic health, brain function, and even cancer management.Topics Discussed:Organs have different fuel preferences: brain strongly prefers glucose, heart prefers fatty acids, skeletal muscle is flexible and likes fat/ketones.Humans evolved with high metabolic flexibility; regular ketosis was normal for ancestors, but today most people never experience it.“Keto flu” is largely glucose withdrawal plus electrolyte/sodium loss; proper salt and hydration prevent most symptoms.Classic medical ketogenic diet is ~90% fat (historically saturated); modern versions often use more monounsaturated fats, MCTs, and higher protein.Saturated fat is not inherently atherogenic in the context of weight stability or caloric deficit; excess calories from any source can dysregulate metabolism.Exogenous ketones (e.g. BHB) provide energy, reduce ROS, stabilize membranes, increase inhibitory tone (GABA), and have hormone-like signaling effects independent of diet.Cancer cells often show Warburg effect (damaged mitochondrial respiration → heavy reliance on glycolysis); lowering glucose and raising ketones can stress cancer cells.True keto-adaptation for athletic performance requires 6–12 weeks; after that, elite athletes can match or exceed prior high-carb performance at sub-maximal and endurance efforts.Practical Takeaways:Therapeutic carbohydrate restriction (50–100 g/day for many people) plus occasional fasting or ketone supplements can restore metabolic flexibility with far fewer side effects than strict keto.Prioritize whole-food fats (eggs, fatty fish, beef, olive oil, butter/lard) and minimize processed keto products loaded with seed oils.Supplementing BHB (salts or esters) or MCT oil can ease the transition into ketosis, boost ketones without strict dieting, and may support brain and metabolic health.Regularly check basic blood markers (glucose, lipids, electrolytes) and consider an OmegaQuant test; optimizing metabolic health is one of the strongest preventable steps against cancer, neurodegeneration, and heart disease.Supplemental Ketone (BHB):KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB with potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

Inside Wirtschaft - Der Podcast mit Manuel Koch | Börse und Wirtschaft im Blick
Geopolitik - wie sehr beeinflusst sie die Finanzmärkte aktuell? „Im Moment finde ich es eigentlich erstaunlich, wie wenig die Märkte reagieren auf das, was passiert. Wir haben das Thema kritische Rohstoffe, seltene Erden werden für die westliche Welt rationiert. Das kann in den nächsten Wochen und Monaten schon zu massiven Verwerfungen in der Produktion vieler Güter führen. Dann fängt China an, sehr billige Chips zu rationieren, die aber überall genutzt werden. Wenn die mal nicht mehr da sind, haben wir in Europa riesen Probleme. Das sind jetzt nur mal ein paar Beispiele, wie China seine Macht nutzt, um geopolitisch zu wirken. Das hat eine Kapitalmarktrelevanz. Ich hab das Gefühl, die Zeit der Imperien kommt zu einem gewissen Grad zurück", so Dr. Christian Jasperneite (CIO bei M.M.Warburg & CO).

Welcome to The Superhumanize Podcast. I'm your host, Ariane Sommer, and today we're diving into one of the most paradigm-shifting conversations in modern medicine: the metabolic theory of cancer.For decades, we've been told that cancer is primarily a genetic disease, a matter of unlucky mutations that require aggressive pharmaceutical interventions. But what if that's only part of the story? What if cancer is fundamentally a metabolic disease, a disorder of cellular energy production that we can address through diet, lifestyle, and targeted metabolic therapies?This isn't fringe science. And it's giving patients new hope, and new options, beyond the standard cut, poison, and burn model. Today, I'm thrilled to welcome Dr. Donese Worden to the show. Dr. Worden is a board-certified Naturopathic Medical Doctor, researcher, and global health educator who has dedicated her career to bridging conventional and alternative cancer care. She's collaborated with Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center, served as CEO of Care Oncology, and works directly with Dr. Seyfried on metabolic cancer research. She's also the creator of the 7 Pillars of Health framework, a comprehensive approach to resilience that addresses everything from sleep and gut health to spiritual wellbeing.Dr. Worden's motto is 'Educate, Empower, Enlighten,' and that's exactly what we're going to do today. We'll explore the metabolic theory of cancer, discuss both prevention and treatment strategies, and give you a roadmap for building resilience at every level.Episode Highlights00:00 Welcome + why the “metabolic theory of cancer” matters02:00 Genetics vs. metabolism: why only ~5% is strictly genetic (and gene expression is modifiable)03:45 Warburg's mitochondrial lens; PET scans lighting up because cancer voraciously consumes sugar06:45 How we veered away historically; incentives that kept oncology gene-centric09:00 What damages mitochondria today: toxins, antibiotics (without mitigation), chronic stress10:30 Stress as a metabolic driver; why it keeps glucose high even on a “good” diet12:30 Ketogenic therapy for cancer: high fat, lower protein (individualized), carbs mainly from veggies15:00 Measuring correctly: Keto-Mojo, GKI (Glucose-Ketone Index); skip urine strips for accuracy17:00 Fast stress relief protocols: music-guided entrainment, breath work, active meditation, journaling20:15 Somatic breath work in practice; rapid emotional release21:00 Best fats and how Dr. W screens with food-sensitivity testing first23:15 Keto cycles for prevention: 6-week blocks a couple times per year24:15 Exercise as mitochondrial medicine: HIIT + resistance for biogenesis and cancer risk reduction26:00 The KetoPet model: ketogenic diet + HBOT + interval training; lessons for humans28:15 Starting movement in late-stage cases; meeting people exactly where they are30:15 “Press–Pulse” strategy: what stays constant vs. what's pulsed to outsmart tumor adaptation32:00 Repurposed meds (e.g., metformin, doxycycline) and why many oncologists can't step outside SOC33:00 Bridging care: when surgery/chemo/radiation have a role; aiming at cancer stem cells37:15 Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT): driving O₂ into cells; why it's pulsed and protocol-specific39:30 Outcomes Dr. W sees most consistently: better quality of life, often longer survival41:00 The psychology of prognosis; belief, stress, and manifestation43:00 The “placebo” as your body's own pharmacy (parasympathetic healing state)44:15 Targeting glutamine along with glucose; where evidence stands now (e.g., berberine, exercise, stress)46:45 The Seven Pillars of Health overview (self-audit)48:30 Pillar 1 — Sleep: deep/REM, how you feel on waking49:15 Pillar 2 — Body: strength,...
In this episode, Dr. Brian Joves shares a personal journey of confronting cancer and how it reshaped his perspective on nutrition. Despite the fact that most physicians receive only a few hours of formal training in nutrition, diet remains one of the most powerful—and underutilized—tools in medicine.We'll discuss:Why nutrition education is lacking in medical training.The dangers of the Standard American Diet (SAD) and its role in chronic disease and pain.The science behind ketogenic diets, the Warburg effect, and what emerging research says about cancer and metabolism.How nutrition quality directly impacts chronic spinal pain and recovery.Practical, evidence-based ways patients can improve wellness and resilience—whether managing cancer, chronic pain, or simply aiming for better health.Key Takeaways:Nutrition is foundational—not optional—for long-term health, recovery, and resilience.Cancer and chronic pain share a common thread: both are influenced by inflammation, metabolic health, and lifestyle choices.Medical interventions—whether injections, medications, or surgery—are more effective when paired with better nutrition, movement, rest, and mindset.Patients don't need to overhaul everything at once. Small, consistent changes—reducing processed foods, improving diet quality, and focusing on whole foods—can be transformative.Want to dive deeper into the link between nutrition and pain?

On today's episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions Dr. Michael Karlfeldt is joined by Dr. Mark Lintern and Dr. Lintern shares his journey into cancer research began with a personal diagnosis of soft tissue sarcoma at the age of 28, which propelled him to seek a deeper understanding of the disease. His initial confusion about the genetic causes of cancer led him to explore a variety of theories, especially after witnessing a friend's battle with cervical cancer. These experiences fueled his passion for uncovering the root causes of cancer and inspired him to challenge conventional wisdom in the field. Throughout the conversation, Dr. Len discusses several prevailing theories of cancer, including the somatic mutation theory, cancer stem cell theory, tissue organization field theory, atavistic theory, and viral theory. He emphasizes the importance of understanding these perspectives from a patient's point of view, as they inform different treatment approaches. Ultimately, Dr. Lintern finds the metabolic theory most compelling, particularly the Warburg effect, which describes how cancer cells shift their energy production from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis. Dr. Lintern elaborates on the metabolic theory by explaining the critical role of mitochondria in cellular energy production and how their dysfunction leads to the Warburg effect. He introduces his own cell suppression theory, which posits that fungal pathogens can suppress mitochondrial function, thereby triggering the metabolic shift seen in cancer cells. This theory offers a new lens through which to view the hallmarks of cancer and suggests that targeting the underlying metabolic changes could be key to effective treatment. The discussion then turns to the role of fungal pathogens in cancer and the potential for innovative treatment strategies. Dr. Lintern highlights the cell danger response model, where mitochondria suppress energy production to combat pathogens, and discusses therapies such as hyperbaric oxygen, antifungal drugs, and dietary interventions. He also addresses the limitations of traditional treatments like chemotherapy and radiation, advocating for approaches that reduce inflammation, improve the microbiome, and support the immune system. In the final part of the episode, Dr. Lintern offers practical recommendations for cancer prevention and treatment, including a plant-based diet rich in antimicrobial compounds, the use of medicinal mushrooms, and strategies to modulate the immune system. Dr. Lintern stresses the importance of personalized treatment plans that consider individual health profiles and the need for further research into the role of fungal pathogens in cancer. Dr. Lintern concludes by sharing resources from his book, "The Cancer Resolution," and encourages listeners to keep an open mind and explore new avenues in cancer research.Dr. Mark Lintern shares his personal journey into cancer research after being diagnosed with soft tissue sarcoma at age 28, which led him to question conventional cancer theories.He explores and critiques various cancer theories, ultimately advocating for the metabolic theory and the Warburg effect as the most accurate explanations for cancer's hallmarks.Dr. Lintern introduces the cell suppression theory, suggesting that fungal pathogens suppress mitochondrial function and drive the metabolic changes seen in cancer cells.The discussion covers innovative treatment strategies, including hyperbaric oxygen, antifungal therapies, dietary interventions, and the importance of reducing inflammation and supporting the microbiome.Dr. Lintern emphasizes personalized, holistic approaches to cancer prevention and treatment, sharing insights from his book "The Cancer Resolution" and encouraging open-mindedness in cancer research.----Grab my book A Better Way to Treat Cancer: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding, Preventing and Most Effectively Treating Our Biggest Health Threat - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM1KKD9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Unleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-power-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-within-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2----Integrative Cancer Solutions was created to instill hope and empowerment.

What if cancer isn't primarily a genetic disease — but a metabolic one? In this groundbreaking conversation, Professor Thomas N. Seyfried, PhD (Boston College), author of Cancer as a Metabolic Disease, joins Ralph W. Moss, PhD and Ben Moss to discuss the Mitochondrial and Metabolic Theory of Cancer — and why it challenges decades of conventional thinking. Dr. Seyfried explains how cancer cells depend on glucose and glutamine as their dual fuel supply — and how cutting off both pathways may be the key to shutting cancer down. He details the role of the Glucose Ketone Index (GKI), nutritional ketosis, and new interest in anti-parasitic drugs like fenbendazole and mebendazole, which appear to target cancer's energy metabolism. This episode explores: Why the somatic mutation theory no longer explains cancer's true origin How mitochondrial dysfunction drives tumor growth The critical role of glucose and glutamine fermentation in sustaining cancer cells Why targeting both fuels together is essential for effective therapy Emerging research on fenbendazole, mebendazole, and DON as tools in metabolic therapy The potential of a paradigm shift in oncology — from genes to metabolism Resources: This Podcast contains many scientific terms.

Yirmibir Bitcoin Podcast'in "Bitcoin ve İslam" serisindeki 4 bölümlük tarih serisinin dördüncü ve son bölümüne hoş geldiniz! Bu bölümde, altın destekli paradan günümüzdeki borç tabanlı fiat sisteme geçişin perde arkasını aralıyoruz. Telekomünikasyonun, özellikle 1830'lardaki telgrafın, hızlı işlemleri mümkün kılarak altının para olarak soyutlanmasına yol açtığını keşfedin. Bu durum, tam rezerv bankalarının kaçınılmaz olarak doğal yollarla istikrarsız kısmi rezerv bankalarına dönüşmesine katkıda bulundu.1910'da Jekyll Adası'nda, gelecekteki bir merkez bankasının kurulmasına yönelik gizli bir toplantı düzenlendi. Bu toplantıda, Rockefellerlar, Morganlar ve Rothschildler gibi dönemin en güçlü finansal çıkarlarını temsil eden altı etkili adam vardı. Asıl amaç, bankacılığı merkezileştirmek, rekabeti ortadan kaldırmak ve Kongre onayını güvence altına almaktı. Bu çabalar sonucunda ortaya çıkan Aldrich Planı, daha sonra Federal Rezerv Yasası'na dönüştü; her iki plan, isimleri dışında hükümler açısından neredeyse aynıydı.Paul Warburg ve Albay Edward Mandell House gibi kilit figürlerin, bu yasanın geçmesinde oynadıkları rolleri derinlemesine inceliyoruz. Warburg, yayımlanan muhafazakar görünümün ötesinde, kontrolü finansal elitlere geçirmeyi hedefliyordu. House ise, Başkan Wilson'ın danışmanı olarak, sosyalist vizyonuyla (örneğin "Phillip Dru, Yönetici" adlı eseri) merkez bankacılığını destekledi.Federal Rezerv Yasası 22 Aralık 1913'te hızla kabul edildi. Birinci Dünya Savaşı sırasında, birçok ulus altın standardını terk etti; ABD ise altın rezervlerini faiz getiren hazinelerle değiştirerek para arzını genişletti. Bu durum, 1920'lerdeki yapay olarak düşük faiz oranları ve genişleyen para arzıyla körüklenen spekülatif patlamayı tetikledi. Faiz getiren vadeli mevduatların yaygınlaşması, bankaların daha az rezervle daha fazla kredi genişletmesine izin verdi. Bu da kaçınılmaz olarak 1929 borsa çöküşüne ve Büyük Buhran'ın başlamasına yol açtı.1933'te Başkan Roosevelt, Amerikalıların altın sahibi olmasını yasaklayan ve altının devlete teslim edilmesini zorunlu kılan bir emir imzaladı. 1934'te dolar altına karşı devalüe edildi, bu da halkın dolar birikimlerinin değerini düşürdü. İkinci Dünya Savaşı sonrası Bretton Woods Konferansı'nda (1944), ABD doları altına sabitlenmiş ($35/ons) dünya rezerv para birimi ilan edildi. Ancak ekonomist Robert Triffin'in uyardığı gibi, bu sistem ABD altın rezervlerini tüketecekti. Nihayetinde, 1971'de Başkan Richard Nixon, doların altınla olan bağlantısını kalıcı olarak kopardı ve dolar tamamen fiat bir para birimi haline geldi.Bu bölüm, paranın organik gelişiminden, faizin sisteme sızmasına, kısmi rezerv bankacılığının yükselişine ve merkez bankasının oluşumuyla altının dolardan ayrılmasına uzanan dönüşümü aydınlatıyor. Bu dönüşüm, insanlığı borca dayalı, yüksek zaman tercihli bir "Riba çağına" sokan, günümüz parasal sisteminin temelini oluşturdu. Bugün hayatımızı derinden etkileyen bu finansal yapının kökenlerini anlamak için bu son bölümü kaçırmayın!Kaynak

When did medical terminology become a form of sorcery? In this profound exploration of healing, Dr. Thomas Lodi reveals how the language we use around disease—particularly cancer—shapes our recovery more powerfully than any treatment protocol. The "standard of scare" pervades modern medicine, transforming natural biological adaptations into terrifying "diagnoses" that trap patients in cycles of fear and dependency. Dr. Lodi dismantles this paradigm by unveiling a liberating truth: cancer isn't a collection of hundreds of different diseases, but one fundamental metabolic process (the Warburg effect) manifesting in different locations. This reframing transforms our understanding from helplessness to empowerment.Beyond cancer terminology, Dr. Lodi delivers game-changing insights about sleep that few discuss. While most focus on sleep duration, he explains why sleep timing is actually more critical—going to bed before 9:30pm activates the brain's glymphatic system during slow-wave sleep, removing neurotoxins that contribute to neurodegenerative conditions. This overlooked connection between sleep timing and brain health could transform your wellness journey overnight.His piercing critique of dietary trends, particularly the carnivore diet, reveals uncomfortable truths about human nutrition that challenge popular narratives. Meanwhile, his simple test for physical fitness—sitting on the floor and standing without using hands or furniture—provides a more accurate predictor of longevity than sophisticated medical screenings.Whether you're navigating a health challenge or seeking preventive strategies, this episode offers a radical reorientation toward healing that begins with language, continues with sleep, and flowers through proper nutrition and movement.

In this compelling episode, Dr. Vera Tarman interviews Dr. Thomas Seyfried, a pioneer in the field of cancer metabolism. Dr. Seyfried challenges the mainstream view of cancer as a genetic disease and presents strong evidence that cancer is fundamentally a mitochondrial metabolic disorder. Dr. Thomas N. Seyfried is a distinguished American biologist and professor at Boston College, renowned for his pioneering work in cancer metabolism. With a Ph.D. in Genetics and Biochemistry from the University of Illinois, Urbana, and postdoctoral training in neurochemistry at Yale University School of Medicine, Dr. Seyfried has dedicated his career to exploring the metabolic underpinnings of cancer and other neurological diseases. Dr. Seyfried is best known for his groundbreaking book, Cancer as a Metabolic Disease: On the Origin, Management, and Prevention of Cancer (2012), where he presents compelling evidence that cancer is primarily a mitochondrial metabolic disorder rather than a genetic one. This perspective builds upon the early 20th-century findings of Otto Warburg, who observed that cancer cells rely heavily on fermentation for energy production, even in the presence of oxygen—a phenomenon known as the Warburg effect. Dr. Seyfried's research suggests that targeting cancer's metabolic dependencies, such as glucose and glutamine, through dietary interventions like the ketogenic diet, could offer non-toxic therapeutic strategies. We explore: How cancer cells fuel themselves differently from healthy cells The connection between sugar, ultra-processed foods (UPFs), and cancer growth The Warburg Effect and the roles of glucose and glutamine in tumor development Whether refined sugar is carcinogenic like tobacco Why Dr. Seyfried believes ketogenic diets and caloric restriction can be powerful cancer therapies How his views align with metabolic psychiatry (Dr. Chris Palmer's Brain Energy) The controversial yet promising approach of "press-pulse" therapy The potential for preventing cancer through dietary change Follow: https://www.bc.edu/bc-web/schools/morrissey/departments/biology/people/faculty-directory/thomas-seyfried.html https://tomseyfried.com The content of our show is educational only.

The shocking truth about cancer treatment lies in what medical schools aren't teaching doctors. After 20 years as a radiation oncologist, Dr. Katie Deming discovered that cancer might be fundamentally a metabolic condition rather than primarily genetic—an insight that transforms how we approach healing.Cancer cells predominantly use glucose as fuel through fermentation, even when oxygen is present (the Warburg effect). By eliminating this fuel source through ketogenic diets or extended water fasting, remarkable healing becomes possible. Studies show patients with glioblastoma multiforme living significantly longer on ketogenic diets, but the most profound results come from supervised water fasting.Beyond targeting cancer cells, extended fasting offers comprehensive healing: resetting metabolism, detoxifying the body, rebalancing the microbiome, and often triggering profound emotional and spiritual experiences. Participants report life-changing insights, unexpected spiritual connections, and a complete reset of their relationship with food and health.This approach must be professionally supervised—especially the critical refeeding phase—but represents a powerful healing journey that addresses not just the physical manifestation of cancer but its deeper roots. Whether seeking an alternative to conventional treatments or complementary support during traditional therapy, water fasting offers a possible pathway to healing that conventional medicine has overlooked for far too long.https://www.katiedeming.com/Lies I Taught In Medical School : Free sample chapter - https://www.robertlufkinmd.com/lies/Complete Metabolic Heart Scan (20% off 'LUFKIN20') https://www.innerscopic.com/Fasting Mimicking Diet (20% off) https://prolonlife.com/Lufkin At home blood testing (15% off) https://pathlongevity.com/Mimio Health (15% off 'LUFKIN') https://mimiohealth.sjv.io/c/5810114/2745519/30611 Web: https://robertlufkinmd.com/X: https://x.com/robertlufkinmdYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/robertLufkinmdInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/robertlufkinmd/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertlufkinmd/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/robertlufkinmd Threads: https://www.threads.net/@robertlufkinmdBluesky: ...

“You see bald-headed people who have been treated for cancer. ‘You're trying to kill cancer cells, why the hell are you going bald?'”The provocative rhetorical question is asked by professor Thomas Seyfried, whose research at Boston College will revolutionize our understanding of cancer and other chronic diseases.“Metabolic therapy kills cancer cells and keeps your hair”, he says.“People are being brutalized by the system. They're being treated by people who don't know the biology and biochemistry behind the disease.”“Cancer is not a genetic disease, it's a metabolic problem. The reason everybody says it's a genetic disease is confirmation bias. It's been hammered into everybody's brain”, Seyfried says.We can see that conventional oncology is not addressing the right problem, because the death rates aren't dropping the way they should, he points out."The promise of the gene theory has not come to fruition, nor will it ever do. Meanwhile, thousands of people are dying every day. It's the greatest tragedy in the history of medicine."Thomas Seyfried does not dismiss conventional methods like radiation and chemo, but the problem is that those are being employed first, when they should be employed last.Seyfried contends that cancer is “a remarkably simple disorder” when you understand the biology. But we have made it complicated and mysterious by focusing on downstream phenomena instead of the actual cause, metabolic dysfunction.“You really have to work hard to get your body to get cancer”, he says.“Our paleolithic ancestors and those who live according to traditional ways rarely have cancer. Animals in nature rarely have cancer.”“Before antibiotics and orthopedic surgeons we died from injuries and infections. What's killing us now, whether it's dementia, cancer, cardiovascular disease or diabetes, is civilization itself.”Which means: Not exercising, being under stress, having poor sleep and eating ultra-processed food (sometimes food-like substances).Our bodies become less and less capable of using oxygen to generate energy. Cells resort to fermentation, like cells in primitive life forms once did. This is the crux of the matter. When cells switch from oxygen to glucose (a sugar) and glutamine (an amino acid) to generate energy, they become cancer cells.The solution? Starving the tumor.German doctor Otto Warburg discovered the metabolic mechanism behind dysregulated cell growth already a century ago. But other theories outmaneuvered his findings.Before rediscovering Warburg's theory and improving it, Thomas Seyfried was “just as indoctrinated as everybody else”, he says.Seyfried and his colleagues developed a diet-drug combination to destroy tumors by doing away with the detrimental fuels glucose and glutamine.A low-carb, high fat diet plus fasting targets glucose (healthy cells can burn fatty acids and ketone bodies, cancer cells cannot), and a “press-pulse” method including certain repurposed anti-parasite drugs targets glutamine. Add exercise.Patients can keep track of the levels of glucose and ketones in their blood with a simple device.“We're getting longer and longer survivors for the so-called terminal cancers.”One big obstacle to getting established medicine to rethink is that there is no money in metabolic therapy. There's no pill or shot for Big Pharma to sell. But Seyfried is optimistic:“When you educate people in certain ways and make certain products that will keep the entire body healthy, this will be a new industry. It's coming.”Seyfried's research at Boston CollegeIHMC Lecture by Seyfried
Today on Integrative Cancer Solutions with Dr. Michael Karlfeldt, Dr. Karlfeldt acknowledges the overwhelming nature of a cancer diagnosis, describing it as "one of the hardest slap in the face imaginable." He emphasizes how patients suddenly need to become experts in cancer treatments because their lives depend on it. In this episode Dr. Karlfeldt interviews Dr. Mary Hardy about the role of mitochondria in cancer development and treatment. Dr. Hardy critiques the traditional "war metaphor" approach to cancer treatment, noting that while it can be successful in some cases, it often leads to significant side effects and potential second cancers. She explains Dr. Warburg's discovery of how cancer cells lose advanced metabolism, particularly their ability to metabolize glucose normally, which leads to primitive cellular functions and toxic end products. Dr. Hardy delves into the evolutionary significance of mitochondria, explaining their maternal DNA origin and crucial role in organizing complex cellular functions including energy production, cell signaling, and apoptosis (programmed cell death). She describes how cancer cells can turn off the apoptotic switch by damaging mitochondria, allowing them to survive and proliferate abnormally. This understanding opens new pathways for cancer treatment that focus on restoring mitochondrial function rather than simply killing cancer cells. The conversation then shifts to integrative oncology approaches, with particular focus on Mediterra, a fermented wheat germ extract that may improve mitochondrial function and cancer outcomes. Dr. Hardy shares clinical studies showing increased five-year survivorship in cancer patients who used Mediterra for a year, as well as personal anecdotes about patients who experienced significant benefits, including one whose metastasis disappeared after using the product. She emphasizes the importance of continuing treatment for a full year to achieve optimal results. Dr. Hardy concludes by discussing how re-normalizing mitochondria can prevent metastasis by inhibiting the formation of new blood vessels and adhesion molecules. She advocates for a holistic approach to cancer treatment that addresses both the tumor and the patient's overall health, including diet, exercise, and stress management. Dr. Hardy encourages patients to educate their doctors about integrative approaches and to seek out practitioners who support combining conventional and natural therapies for the best possible outcomes.The introduction acknowledges the pressure patients often feel from medical professionals and loved ones to pursue conventional treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery.Dr. Karlfeldt suggests that many patients intuitively sense there are additional treatment options beyond traditional therapies alone.The podcast aims to share stories from real people who have successfully fought cancer using integrative and holistic methods.Mediterra (fermented wheat germ extract) works through four key mechanisms: it blocks cancer cells' ability to uptake sugar, encourages apoptosis (programmed cell death), improves immune surveillance by increasing natural killer cells and removing cancer cells' "camouflage," and rescues mitochondrial function which inhibits cell growth and metastasis.Re-normalizing mitochondria is critical for preventing cancer metastasis because healthy mitochondria build up adhesion molecules between cells (preventing cells from breaking away), inhibit the formation of new blood vessels that tumors need for growth, and activate pathways that prevent cancer spread—addressing metastatic disease is particularly important since that's where tumor burden becomes significant and patients begin to decline.----Grab my book A Better Way to Treat Cancer: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding, Preventing and Most Effectively Treating Our Biggest Health Threat - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM1KKD9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Unleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-power-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of Cancerhttps://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-within-Price: $24.99-100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2----Integrative Cancer Solutions was created to instill hope and empowerment.

Partial versions are available elsewhere. Full transcript and other information on Substack.Episode Summary: Nick Jikomes talks to Dr. Patti, exploring how cancer cells metabolize sugars like glucose and fructose, focusing on a recent study showing fructose indirectly boosts tumor growth in mice via liver-produced lipids called LPCs. The discussion covers cancer biology basics, Warburg effect, tumor microenvironments, and systemic metabolic impacts of cancer, while also touching on dietary implications, fasting, and the complexities of nutrient use in cancer progression.Key Takeaways:Cancer cells often rely heavily on glucose, excreting it as lactate even when oxygen is available (Warburg effect), but take up more than their mitochondria can handle.In a study, high fructose diets accelerated tumor growth in mice by 4x, not because cancer cells use fructose directly, but because the liver converts it to LPCs, which tumors use to build membranes.Tumors are not just cancer cells; they recruit healthy cells in their microenvironment, and their metabolic effects ripple across the entire body, altering distant tissues.Excessive fructose consumption may worsen tumor growth, but cutting it poses little risk and could benefit cancer patients, pending human studies.Fasting may reduce cancer initiation risk in animals, but its effect on existing tumors is less clear and could worsen wasting (cachexia) in late stages.The body tightly regulates blood glucose via the liver, so simply cutting dietary glucose won't starve tumors, highlighting cancer's metabolic adaptability.Related episode:M&M #200: Dietary Fats & Seed Oils in Inflammation, Colon CancerSupport the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, etc. at the M&M Substack Affiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

This Real Science Exchange podcast episode was recorded during a webinar from Balchem's Real Science Lecture Series. You can find it at balchem.com/realscience.Dr. Baumgard begins with an overview of the structure and function of the gastrointestinal tract. More than 75% of an animal's immune system resides in the gut. The focus of this webinar is how heat stress initiates leaky gut, how that leaky gut then influences the immune and hormonal systems, and ultimately, how that reduces productivity. (0:22)Dr. Baumgard compares the metabolism of a cow 200 days in milk to a cow 10 days in milk. The 200-day cow is experiencing ad libitum intake and gaining weight. Her insulin levels would be high, and NEFAs would be low. On the other hand, the 10-day cow is experiencing suboptimal intake, and her insulin levels are the lowest they'll ever be during the production cycle. Body tissue is mobilized, and NEFAs will increase. Research shows it takes 72 grams of glucose to make one kilogram of milk. Any disruption to the gluconeogenic pathway has the potential to decrease milk yield. (6:38)Heat stress is estimated to cost the US dairy industry $1.7 billion each year. Regardless of climate change, heat stress will continue to be an issue because all economically important phenotypes in animal agriculture are heat-producing processes. Dr. Baumgard's lab has been investigating the biology of heat stress to implement more effective mitigation strategies. (9:09)How much of the reduction in feed intake during heat stress explains the reduction in milk yield? A pair-feeding experiment comparing thermoneutral to heat-stressed cows showed that about 50% of the reduction in milk yield during a heat wave is due to a reduction in feed intake. The thermoneutral cows lost weight in response to decreased intake, and their NEFAs increased. Heat-stressed cows did not have an increase in NEFA. Heat-stressed animals fail to mobilize adipose tissue despite their endocrine profile predicting that they should. However, insulin is high when we would expect it to be low, and that response to heat stress is highly conserved in all species. (10:43)Heat-stressed cows produced about 400 grams less lactose per day than their pair-fed thermoneutral controls. This is nearly a pound! Is the liver producing 400 fewer grams of glucose each day? Or is some other extramammary tissue using more glucose per day? Dr. Baumgard's work suggests that the immune system is where the 400 grams of glucose go in heat-stressed animals. During heat stress, vasodilation at the body surface occurs, with concomitant vasoconstriction in the gut. The gut epithelium is very sensitive to reduced oxygen delivery that would result from the vasoconstriction, and tight junction proteins do not function properly, resulting in a leaky gut. This results in an infiltration of antigens into the body, which causes an immune response. (15:36)Dr. Baumgard details how insulin fits into these immune responses via the Warburg effect. An activated immune cell prefers glucose and needs it in high quantities. The activated cell switches from the Kreb's cycle to generate ATP to aerobic glycolysis. This requires high insulin. The immune system requires approximately one gram of glucose per kilogram of metabolic body weight per hour. (25:03)By far, the biggest impact a dairy producer can make to alleviate heat stress is to modify the environment physically: shade, fans, soakers, misters, etc. Investing in cooling cows improves production efficiency and profitability, summer fertility, animal welfare and health, and sustainability. Other important heat abatement considerations include adequate water availability, reducing walking distance to the parlor and time in the holding pen, and improving ventilation. Dry cows should also be part of any heat abatement strategy, as the benefits of cooling dry cows extends far into lactation. Dr. Baumgard also discusses different dietary management strategies for heat stress situations. (32:43)In summary, heat stress decreases almost every metric of productivity and costs everyone in the industry. Reduced feed intake is only part of the problem. Heat-induced leaky gut results in biological consequences incredibly similar to any other immune activation, such as mastitis or metritis. For dairy producers, heat stress abatement should by far be their biggest priority. Once those infrastructure improvements are in place, dietary interventions are another good strategy to minimize the negative consequences of heat stress.
