Your body runs on two fuels. Glucose and ketones. Every cell in your body can run on either. With one exception. Cancer cells have damaged mitochondria. Damaged mitochondria cannot process ketones. They run primarily on glucose, and to a lesser extent on glutamine, but ketones are off the menu entirely. This is called the Warburg Effect. It has been observed, documented, and replicated across multiple cancer types for nearly a century. PET scans, the imaging technology used to locate tumours, work by injecting radioactive glucose and watching where it concentrates. The glucose concentrates in the tumours. Because the tumours are consuming glucose at an accelerated rate. Because their broken mitochondria leave them almost no other choice. The PET scan works because cancer loves glucose. The dietitian recommending complex carbohydrates to cancer patients has had a PET scan explained to them. These two facts exist in the same hospital. On the same floor. They have not been introduced to each other.








I won't be missing the ABC now they're on strike - in fact I would defund them.
