: Episode 968 – Miriam Kalamian EdM, MS, CNS (@DietaryTherapy) joins Vinnie to talk about her family’s cancer story, her book Keto for Cancer and how the medical industry’s misguided approach to metabolic disorder treatment has compelled her to passionately spread information about ketogenic diet therapy.
MIRIAM KALAMIAN
- Miriam has a Master of Education, Master of Science, and a Clinical Nurse Specialist degree
- Now a Dietary Specialist
- Unfortunately, her son, Raffi, suffered from brain cancer at a very young age
- As a result, she began looking into adjunctive treatments to cancers (as in, treatments to supplement and complement medical care)
- Also, Ketosis, which is accessible to all, was one of those adjunctive treatments Miriam looked into and researched a great deal
- Although Raffi unfortunately passed away, the ketogenic diet along with other treatments greatly reduced his cancer and tumors
KETO FOR CANCER
- Cancer lives off of sugar
- Eating a low-sugar, low-carb diet such as a ketogenic diet helps lessen fuel given to cancer cells
- Miriam has done much of her research based on both anecdotal and preclinical evidence
- While much of the medical community does not yet support this way of living, its because of the years of misinformation
- However, people are slowly coming around
- Ketogenic diet can help a variety of diseases, also including epilepsy
- Check out Miriam’s book and website, linked below and above respectively, for more info on her family’s story and the ketogenic diet in general
