I forgot to say this. Afinitor prevents cells from consuming glutamate. The reason why cells consume glutamate is insulin resistance. Insulin resistance prevents cells from consuming glucose, so they turn to glutamate. Since Afinitor stops cells from consuming glutamate, then cells have nothing left to consume for energy. Take my advice above. It will help treat your insulin resistance so your cells can start consumi...

Yes, I do know. For starters, stop ingesting
1. grassy grains: wheat, barley, rye and oats
2. dairy
3. anything which tastes sweet
4. all MSG
Your energy will return, and your cancer will have a better chance of not returning.
Afinitor's purpose is to stop your cells from importing glutamate and aspartate, because cancer uses them for food. Grassy grains are full of glutamate, and have proteins which caus...

The idea behind a ketogenic diet is, ingest the food and drink previously ingested, except limit carbohydrates (starches, legumes, fruits and sweet drinks) to a few grams per day. As you can see I do not advocate ingesting most of these carbs in any quantity, so I would suggest the lower end of the spectrum .....15 or 20 grams. Significantly increase intake of meat and fish. Drastically increase intake of fats. I'll ...

One more thought. The "ketogenic diet" is useful in reducing blood sugar, the effect of insulin resistance. It just fails at eliminating the causes of insulin resistance. THAT's where the standard ketogenic diet fails.

-------------------------------------------------------- Malaika01 -Thank you for your insight. You obviously know a lot more about the KD than the average person. Perhaps you can share what a modified ketogenic diet would entail. What kind of drugs target glucose and glutamine as Dr. Seyfried does not recommend Metmorfin. Also are you saying that whether or not an individual consumes glucose their body will use fats...

I haven't tried a ketogenic diet against cancer, and I don't have $111 for Dr. Seyfried's book. Everything about Dr. Seyfreid's work points at a modified ketogenic diet for treating and avoiding cancer. From the author, Dr. Thomas Seyfried....http://www.nutritionandmetabolism.com/content/7/1/7--------------------------------------------------------------------------- .....it remains to be determined if members of our...

You're welcome.I follow this diet for my autoimmune diseases. It works. They and cancer follow the same initial pathways. If I can do it your brother can do it. Unfortunately reversing cancer would take time. You can't judge the diet in a few days. It will take weeks to see remission. At first just hope for slowed progression. This dietary advice stands apart from any medical advice or treatment your brother may seek...

I wish I had more time. Insulin is a hormone released by the pancreas. Insulin causes cell GLUT transporters to import blood glucose. Insulin resistant cells are less capable of importing glucose. Insulin resistance happens when the small intestine passes large proteins into the bloodstream which mimic insulin. These insulin mimetic proteins clog up cellular transport mechanisms making it impossible for insulin to do...

Judyfae, I agree with your initial reaction, both concerning sugar and in general. Continue doing the things which produced cancer, and the results will not change. Cancer happens because the body is bathed in glucose, the result of insulin resistance. The body replaces starving insulin resistant cells with cancer cells because they can consume the glucose. Your brother's challenge is to remove the glucose and the in...

The benefit of flax seed oil is highly suspect. It provides EPA but very little DHA. Fish oil is another matter. Original studies showed metabolic benefits from eating fish, and that the benefits sprang from the oil. Initial tests showed the benefits sprang from the EPA component, and not from the DHA component ....because no benefit from DHA could be isolated. So some "smart" entrepreneurs started marketing EPA.Long...
