Great article. It would appear the metabolic theory over somatic theory is gaining adherents from the papers being published. Dr Thomas Seyfried, as one example, is pretty much on a parallel track of investigation as a recent paper suggests: "Mitochondrial–Stem Cell Connection: Providing Additional Explanations for Understanding Cancer," which, of course, references Dr Warburg in the introduction.
The common theme these researchers are looking at is exactly as you discuss it here, Dr Phan. Deny the cancer glucose and glutamine, augment treatment with repurposed drugs--like ivermectin, the drug Pharma KNEW was a game changer for many cancers--and you starve and shrink tumors and avoid killing or maiming the patient.
We need an administrative push and regulatory house cleaning that vanquishes the hegemony of Pharma, and that could be starting in 2025.
Dr Phan, you know all that this article discusses, but for those interested In Seyfried's recent collaboration go here: https://www.mdpi.com/2218-1989/14/4/229
Dr. Phan, I would love to read your thoughts on working around the rate limiting steps in the E.T.C. Besides a reasonable anti-inflammatory diet and exercise, as a 73 year old, I attempt to boost my mitochondrial function with Nicotinomide Riboside (+ resveratrol and TMG) to overcome the sluggishness that occurs at generation of NMN, as well as attenuating oxidative stress, improving repair, etc. I also supplement with 200 mg of R-Lipoic Acid, which has had a noticeable effect on improving gum health.
Some investigators suggest NR benefits can be obtained at less cost with nicotinamide alone and alleviate the potential of methyl depletion, which is moot in my case as I am also using TMG.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQmTKxI4Wn4&t=77s Great question ! The rate-limiting step on the Electron Complex System is at complex 4. Methylene blue works on complex 4. MB is great, but one must be careful when getting pure, third-party-tested products.
Your inquiry is fascinating. LDN is in the anti-aging bracket. I am on it, and I thank you for being so supportive of my social media presence. I may write about it. Being on social media is new to me.
Question 7 makes me wonder about how much the terrible Covid masks contributed to the rise of all the cancers. Do you think that there is a connection?
In theory, yes, but only under specific conditions: Wearing a mask at over 12-16 hours a day with underlying conditions like a prior history of cancer or autoimmune diseases where there is chronic inflammation with mitochondria dysfunction can trigger the “Warburg’s Effect.”
Excellent substack post and thanks for making it simple enough for the laymen like myself to understand. I also read Dr Seyfried's book about the same subject. He revealed an experiment where they placed a healthy nucleus into a cell with damaged mitochondria and it became cancerous. They also placed a cancerous nucleus into a cell with healthy mitochondria and no cancer.
So this cancerous fermentation is based on an affinity for glucose and glutamine. Seems that we could infuse these two fuels with something that suppresses or kills cancer like Ivermectin. It can't be that easy.
Yes, he discussed putting a healthy nucleus into a cell with damaged mitochondria, which became cancerous. He has impressive results with his treatment, especially with the worse types of cancer like Glioblastoma and pancreatic cancer. I would not say it is easy to treat cancer because of so many variables; however, Dr. Seyfried's approach goes back to Dr. Warburg's. If only oncologists could read the history of Warburg, Gerson, and Seyfried, cancer would be curable.
Like everything, oncologists make their money through chemotherapy and radiation. In his talk, he discussed his frustration with mainstream oncology.
I recently listened to an interview with Dr. Seyfried and he mentioned that DON, the glutamine suppressant should be pulsed because our healthy cells need glutamine but cancer cells need it blocked.
So I am curious if supplements that block glutamine like turmeric and berberine should also be pulsed?
From my understanding of Dr. Seyfried, it should be pulsed for both supplements.
Both have Anti-Cancer Properties: A) They stimulate the AMPK pathway and B) They block cancer cells’ reliance on glutamine.
While turmeric and berberine are less potent than DON in inhibiting glutamine, pulsing is beneficial in specific contexts. Dr. Seyfried's pulsing concept targets cancer cells selectively while allowing healthy cells to recover glutamine levels.
Healthy cells need Glutamine to live, and cancer cells may adapt to continuous glutamine suppression, reducing the efficacy of these supplements.
For my cancer patients, I rec. that they take both the weekdays and the weekends off.
I take my supplements, including LDN and BPC 157, on weekdays. I don't take anything on Saturday or Sunday. I do a water fast one day out of the week.
JJ, again, I appreciate your questions. I am only guessing, but I bet that 90 percent of physicians, including oncologists, do not understand what you are asking.
Dr. Phan, I forgot to say that I really like the analogy of the city that you used. I think It really helps my non science brain understand a little better. Analogies are a very helpful teaching tool.
Good work. A suggestion: Warburg showed an association between cancer and a lack of oxygen, true. Also, our bodies are electric, magnetic and frequency based. Dr Jerry Tennant has shown that disease is a lack of electrons, (Healing is Voltage, The Handbook). As voltage is reduced in a cell it can't absorb oxygen. A proper cellular voltage is -25mv (7.35pH). It is a duality caused by lack of oxygen and voltage. What can increase voltage/pH: grounding, H2O2 IV, C IV high dose, chlorine dioxide, sodium bicarbonate etc.
I wonder if the electron transfer hypothesis, if proven true, might significantly impact our approach to cancer research, diagnosis, and treatment? I recently read a piece on Substack's newsletter, "Lies are Unbekoming," detailing a Dr. Gerald Pollack research paper titled, "Is it oxygen, or electrons, that our respiratory system delivers?"
The paper asserts that the primary function of our respiratory system is to delivers electrons 'carried by oxygen.' Here's the link to the Substack article, "Breathing Electrons:"
I just had a chance to read the link. Thank you for sharing it with me. He is spot on. I would not call it stealing elections from O2; a better terminology is the transfer of photons from oxygen and transporting it to the Electron Transport System in the mitochondria to the protein ATP synthase to spin ATP synthase to produce ATP. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQmTKxI4Wn4&t=174s
Wasn't nurse Budwig, later doctor Budwigh, his nurse? the one who developed the Budwig protocol? I read somewhere she was presented for a Nobel prize several times but never got it - instead Dr Warburg got it? I think this is the same person.
The answer is much more complicated than what can be summarized in one or two paragraphs. Treating cancer requires a multi-layer attack. I recommend that you start with this: /Users/anthonyphan/Desktop/CancerCare-Summary-2023-9-8.pdf

Thank you for the article. I think Dr. SeyFried's paper is more in-depth than Baghli and Maki's paper

Dr. Phan, are you using LDN with your cancer patients or those who took the jab?
Your inquiry is fascinating. LDN is in the anti-aging bracket. I am on it, and I thank you for being so supportive of my social media presence. I may write about it. Being on social media is new to me.
I would absolutely love to see you write an article on LDN!
Thank you for your encouragement. It will be my next post.
An article about LDN would be great!
Substack is it for me. I have learned so much. Amazing content from good doctors and health enthusiasts.
I am scared of the other ones like Facebook etc. And I also don’t want to get too sucked in.
Hopefully substack stays clean and uncensored.

Thank you. I was taking a break from most supplements except for berberine and turmeric. I will start taking Saturday and Sunday off.
Are you serious? They wouldn’t understand that question? Wow.

Thank you! I am researching and studying frequency medicine. I think that is the future of medicine.
A new interview with Dr. Seyfried. He also talks about the candy given at oncology clinics.

Thank you so much for your brilliant post and for being an outlier of a physician. G-d bless you!!
Test
Wasn't nurse Budwig, later doctor Budwigh, his nurse? the one who developed the Budwig protocol? I read somewhere she was presented for a Nobel prize several times but never got it - instead Dr Warburg got it? I think this is the same person.
Dr. Warburg won his Nobel Prize in 1931. Budwid is much later, in 1952
thank you for correcting my failed memory ! should 've looked it up before I commented. So sorry.
No problem. God Bless

Where can one get the peptides?
Hopefully, when RFK Jr. gets in, HHS will allow peptide therapy. He stated that in one of his tweets.
