let's talk about cancer and ketones there's some very very important
points i want to bring up there's been this debate on whether the ketogenic diet is good or
bad for cancer also whether the ketogenic diet is the best diet once you get cancer okay well
here's my viewpoint based on the data that i have i believe that a healthy ketogenic diet within
a minute fasting and periodic prolonged fasting can prevent cancer and it is the diet and program
to prevent cancer why do i say that because the actual cause of cancer is mitochondrial damage
and there's nothing that destroys the mitochondria more
than metabolic syndrome and high insulin in a diet that is high in sugar creates massive
damage to the mitochondria so this is why healthy keto intermittent fasting is what you need to do
to prevent cancer but what is the best diet you should go on when you get cancer that's
a different protocol i'm going to cover that in a second but i want to first talk about ketones
you have two types of ketones you have the ketones that are produced by a low-carb diet
and you also have ketones that are produced when you're fasting two different processes there
is some very strong evidence to show that cancer cells can also consume ketones unfortunately okay
but when you get your ketones from fasting something else happens you get this massive
anti-cancer effect you get the help of your immune system you have to get the help of certain
genetic things that are occurring that are very anti-cancer so the ketones that occur when you're
fasting are not going to feed the cancer like it would when you're just doing a low carb diet
also when you're fasting your normal cells are a bit protected from chemo and radiation if you go
that direction so these ketones actually give you more protection when you're doing fasting okay and
what's interesting about that is the cancer cells don't get that protection so right there that's
a that's a really cool advantage the ketones when you're fasting also enhance the effects
of radiation which there's some interesting data on that i'll put some links down below
so if you develop cancer what diet should you be on well that's evolving there's more and more data
we're actually doing some very interesting research right now i mean a clinical trial
which i would love you to contribute to and i'll put a link down below because
it involves several clinical trials very strategically done by some high level
scientists that are extremely smart in this area but we're trying to find a protocol
that doesn't involve massive amounts of fasting but what we definitely know right now is that
fasting is the most powerful weapon against cancer but what do you do if you're very very thin
becomes a problem because the eating plan for cancer should be low carb
it should be a low protein it should also be low fat also it should be high in phytonutrients
as in a lot of nutrient-dense vegetables okay so this gives us a problem because we're on
now we're on a low-calorie diet we're not trying to go low-calorie we're just
trying to starve out that cancer of various fuels that the cancer cell is dependent on
and then if you add a lot of fasting in there you're not going to be eating anything at all so
it gives us another problem we have to solve the cool thing about the phytonutrients from plants
is that they are selective in other words a lot of the phytonutrients from plants are anti-cancer
they create apoptosis which causes a cell to commit suicide but only the cancer cells your own
normal cells do not commit suicide when you consume the phytonutrients from these leafy greens
so that's very interesting we also have the factor of your immune system the problem with chemo and
radiation is it kills off your immune system and one of the best preventative things for cancer
too is a very very strong immune system and that takes some time to develop and build up through
nutrient-dense foods years of working on your sleep your nutrient reserves and your cells eating
foods that are higher nutrients all that's going to help you anyway i wanted to talk to you about
this relationship between cancer and ketones and give you some interesting points on this
but stay tuned for more videos on this topic hey before you go if you're benefiting from any of my
content i would love to hear about your success story please share it in the link down below
