My wife has cancer (and is doing very well, thank you). I told her doctors we were eating very low carb, to deprive the cancer of glucose. Some of them objected, saying “But your brain runs on glucose.”
I was on the phone with one of them when she said that. I kind of lost it and said “Are you aware of the 1967 study by George Cahill, where he fasted volunteers for 40 days and determined the brain was running on 67% ketones?”. There was silence on the phone for several seconds, then she said “I have to get back to work.”
And there’s more. Your body makes about 80g of glucose per day, even in extended fasts or starvation.
We are doing hyperbaric oxygen therapy. It’s not FDA approved to treat cancer, so it’s out of pocket, but not unreasonable. About $100 per 90 minute session.
I made a video of it last week: (Shirley HBOT):

Thank you for the video. I had the same conversation with our oncologist and she didn’t want to hear it also. Glucose is not the problem she said. And she cut me right off.
Nice. I can tell that you’re not advertising the product (the chamber) since I had to hold my computer sideways to watch the video! Your wife looks great, glad she’s doing well. The entire concept is simple makes sense, too much sense for the medical profession. If you have areas in your body that are damaged and not receiving ideal blood flow, then they’re not getting enough oxygen to heal themselves (diabetic ulcers come to mind, for example). So why not load up the person’s blood with oxygen so that the diminished flow still carries enough oxygen for healing?
