VINNIE AFTER CANCER
- After leukemia (and during) people kept telling Vinnie he needed to do certain things
- Eat macro-diet and micro-diet, juice everything, have wheatgrass, etc or he would die
- He went to his hematologist and asked how much of it was the truth
- His incredibly intelligent hematologist simply said “Stay away from sugar!”
- Everything is pointing towards sugar as one of the things that cancer loves
- His incredibly intelligent hematologist simply said “Stay away from sugar!”
SUGAR AND CANCER
- Sugar does not cause cancer, but cells that make tumors and such are fermentors
- This means they will gain energy from glucose fermentation
- Sugar feeds them
- This is a prime fuel, but not the only fuel
- This means they will gain energy from glucose fermentation
- Our red blood cells are constantly making a little lactate
- Tumor cells have defective mitochondria so they make lots of lactate
WHAT CAUSES CANCER?
- Radiation
- Chemicals in the environment
- Chronic inflammation
- ex: Lung cancer comes from lung inflammation which is worsened by smoking
- Age
- Mutations in genome that we inherit
- People are pre-disposed to cancers
- genome is your set of genes and differences / mutations in them
