Thomas N. Seyfried - Cancer as a Metabolic Disease
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 лис 2024
- Thomas Seyfried, a professor of biology at Boston College, explains that cancer is increasingly prevalent, with over 600,000 people dying annually in the U.S. Traditionally viewed as a genetic disease, Seyfried argues that cancer is primarily a mitochondrial metabolic disease. His research shows that cancer cells rely on fermentation for energy, specifically from glucose and the amino acid glutamine, due to damaged mitochondria. Seyfried advocates for metabolic therapies, including calorie restriction, ketogenic diets, and targeted drugs, to starve cancer cells of their fuel, offering a promising alternative to current treatments.

Thank you Professor for saving my wife.
She was diagnosed with Stage 4 Breast Cancer 6 years ago and told there was no hope for her.
By some miracle, I found your research, and it saved her life.
God Bless you Sir.
❤🙏🙏🙏
What did you do?
What did you do exactly?
Please help us too what u did in terms to controlling glutamine as sugar we can cut off but hard to glutamine
@Dataenginner Professor Seyfried uses Don 6 but that is available to ordinary people.
We used Menbedazole.
Hope that helps you.
We must protect this man at all costs
I have been watching your videos. The treatment here in America. It's survival of the fittest. I thank you for sharing these. I have changed my diet. The only offering of treatment is chemo they say. Considering I have already done traditional therapy. The oncologists, now document that I have anxiety and depression. I refused their standard diet served in all hospitals. I was dismissed . I worked in the health care field for 2 decades. I will continue to share and write in my journal. My dr.s have deemed me uncompliant . Keep teaching doc!! I will not stop sharing until the world knows..!!!
Very impressive and brave of you! All best wishes!❤❤
What treatment are you doing? Apart from the diet. Are you following your own protocol? I wish you luck it is very different to go against the trend even when you know you are correct
But can you use complete sentences please?
Dear Prof Seyfried. This was calm, measured, gracious and above all powerful and persuasive.👍
I am on-board spreading the word. I have seen this strategy work in our personal circle of friends.
❤❤❤ Professor Seyfried is tirelessly trying to save mankind! We need to do our part and help get the word out
“The problem is the medical schools have not yet come to understand this” to put it lightly
Thank you very much for your courage, doctor Thomas.
*Correction* @8:36 Dr. Seyfried says that the GKI is a ratio of glucose to glutamine. He meant to say GKI is the ratio of glucose to ketones*
Absolutely correct. What we have to do is to unlearn what we have learnt so far.
The problem is that patients' lives are much less valuable to pharmaceutical companies than profit from selling expensive chemo drugs and radiation therapy.
Support Pr Seyfried’s work💪💪
Today will be my first chemo . It's lymphoma Hodgkin. Wish me luck
Good luck hope you get better 👍
Good luck!!!
Good luck!
Good luck!
The researches from Professor Seyfried help us understand cancer as a metabolic disease. Thank you.
Thank you for your devotion to the research. I believe you are correct. I also believe there are still many diseases that are still misunderstood in their pathophysiology.
Fenbendazole andd ivermectin. Keto diet no sugar no carbs. Walks exercise. Fast
What does Fenbendazole do?
There has been a few reports of severe liver damage from fenbendazole around one gram daily, but no idea how many used it without issues.
@@ws7001 Long-term high doses can damage the liver but if compared to Chemo the effects are miniscule. To avoid liver damage the key is to use fenbendazole like you would a chemotherapy drug - e.g. 3 days of a high dose (>1g) then 4 days off to recover. Dr Seyfried calls this type of intermittent dosing 'the Pulse' - meaning the intense hit on the tumour cells.
Speeds up the death of the already weakened cancer cells, because the human needs to eat again.@KenJackson_US
Both ivermectin and Fenbendazole are hard on the liver. Must be used with caution and care to strengthen and maintain the health of the liver.
Other treatments are also destructive to the liver. It's a matter of using milk thistle and other protective agents dandelion, chicory, etc.
Sobasivally deep fresh air beathing and intermittent fasting…. Thank you Doctor 🙏
Please explain fermentation.
Thanks Prof. Seyfried for these insights which apparently have inspired and saved many. I have been diagnosed with prostate cancer very recently, and jumped right into the Keto diet after hearing and reading about it. But there is one question - in other publications supporting this path it is mentioned that precisely prostate cancer is an exception, and actually can expand even in very low glucose environment. I could not really find details out there (as a non-expert) - so that's true? Maybe somebody in this community knows... Thanks!!
Outstanding!
Thank you so much for your great work. i will be donaiting soon
Watch his interview with Stephen Bartlett on DOAC. It’s phenomenal.
I now have to walk past the cancer research collectors, because it would seem that their direction is incorrect. Why would i want to fund big pharma anyhow?
It's much the same story for all the medical charities!
Very self serving and deceptive!
😢😢
I have followed your presentations and thank you for your work. I am trying a low carb diet for my cat that has cancer and so far the cancer has not killed her. She is diabetic and had UTI infections but I am using D-Mannose and that has stopped the UTIs so far.
I wonder if you could explain the role mtor plays relative to low carb diets and cell regulation linked to your theories?
Finally, ideas that make sense!
"Until I started doing my own research..."
That's the cancer of the system.
Sir, I have glioblatoma, operated, radiated now on oral chemo. I am now on zero carbs, plenty of fiber and berries. I am confused if I can eat selected fruits which have antoxid but have fructose. I exercise regularly.
Prolonged fasting might be the most important strategy to consider! Good luck!..❤❤
@YtMgk-hv6op As I have heard the protocol from him, sugars and carbs alike are to be cut out. Sugars, whether it be fructose or whatever other non-glucose sugar is converted in the body to glucose so you want to avoid them if you are to follow his regiment.
The top 5 reasons why scientists might resist changing their views despite strong evidence. These reasons are:
Confirmation Bias: Scientists, like everyone else, naturally tend to favor information that confirms their existing beliefs. This is especially powerful when they've invested years of research in a particular direction.
Institutional Inertia: The academic system itself can resist change because entire departments, funding structures, and educational programs are built around established theories.
Career Investment: Many scientists build their entire careers and reputations around specific theories or findings. Changing views could threaten their professional standing and legacy.
Peer Pressure: Scientific communities can develop strong consensus views, making it professionally risky to challenge established beliefs.
Paradigm Paralysis: Scientists often work within established frameworks that can make it difficult to even conceptualize alternative explanations.
Yes! This is it in a nutshell. Thank you.
The relationship between cancer and metabolism isn’t a straightforward cause-and-effect scenario; rather, for cells to become cancerous, they must go through numerous steps and acquire a range of complex characteristics. These include proliferative signaling, evading growth suppressors, resisting cell death, enabling replicative immortality, inducing angiogenesis, and activating invasion and metastasis, as well as reprogramming energy metabolism and evading immune detection. Achieving this intricate array of changes requires multiple genetic, chemical, physical, and electrical alterations, painting a picture of immense complexity. Consequently, while there are many potential targets for treatment, pinpointing the specific few that could disrupt this formidable machinery remains a significant challenge.
The only problem with this becoming standard of practice is it's free. The cycle of fear and consumption is strong in America. Let's work to break this cycle and start doing what's morally right.
It'll be one hell of an uphill struggle to change the status quo. There are currently more people employed in the cancer industry than the anual death rates!
It's always frustrating seeing the light of controlling glutamine while using such therapy barred from use (DON or equivalent).
Svp c'est quoi DON?
@@nadiahessas7781A very effective glutamine inhibitor.
Can You please explain how to REDUCE Glutamine ? Thank You
@1happydream Normal healthy people don't need to reduce glutamine.
@@1happydream Cancer cells mainly feed on glucose and glutamine. So try to eliminate milk, sugar and carbohydrates from the diet. Eat high fat low protein food.
With calorie restriction, that will bring the body into ketosis (burning fat instead of glucose). The gki (glucose ketone index) should be 2 (Seyfried) or below for metabolic therapy. Some other doctors like to get it down to 1 or below.
Another Dr. Seyfried on Metabolic Therapy video, in which he discussed
Calorie Restriction:
ua-cam.com/video/KusaU2taxow/v-deo.html
Ketogenic diet composition:
ua-cam.com/video/KusaU2taxow/v-deo.html
You want to restrict the total calories intake and follow the composition percentage of calories of each group as shown in the slide.
Once the body is in ketosis, then you can address (reduce) glutamine.
Berberine, egcg, curcumin, quercetin are glutamine suppressors. But they are not as effective as DON.
Dr Seyfried in another interview mentioned mebendazole (or fenbendazole), can be used to block glutamine:
ua-cam.com/video/xQhIJxatT1M/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/xQhIJxatT1M/v-deo.html
@8:37 He misspoke here. GKI is the index of glucose to ketones, not glucose to glutamine. (That is where the letters come from)
Get yourself a keto-mojo.
stop eating carbs, Eat high fat low carb diet. 80% calories from
fat. Basically aim for
beef, lamb, bacon, eggs, butter, salt & water.
Lower your blood sugar and get into ketosis. Get your GKI
sorry wrong post
So, a GKI of two or below is therapeutic and really slows down cancer. e.g ketones above 2.5 mmol/L . But it is not enough to kill the cancer by itself; you need to combine it with other factors/treatments to hit it from multiple angles
@@H4KnSL4K exactly
I hadn't caught that.
But, yes. G glucose K ketone Index.
Does Dr Seyfried have a published cancer protocol?
Yes. It's the "press pulse method" he describes at the end of the video. He has mentioned in the past that it's on PubMed.
Thank you❤
I like the concepts, but many cancers can adabt to a low glucose diet, aswell as utilizing fatty acids. Some cancers will get more aggressive and immunoevasive with a ketogentic diet. I looking into it when my mom was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer and we opted for conventional treatment+new immune treatment that is now avaiable. Does anyone got more info that contradict my findings? Still find it interesting and has some but small validity in my amature eyes
Prof. Seyfried's intrepid publicizing of metabolic therapy for cancer is very important. It is the future of cancer therapy. But I have yet to encounter anything in his many interviews that would be actionable for actual cancer patients. He brilliantly explains the science, but never-that I've seen-how a patient can harness it TODAY to attack their cancer. It's left vague. If anyone knows differently, please leave a comment.
Professor Seyfried is not a physician, so therefore, he can not tell Cancer Patients what to do.
He does, however, provide all the information required for them to treat themselves.
My Wife was diagnosed with stage 4 Breast Cancer 6 years ago and told there was no hope for her.
We followed Professor Seyfried's advice and now the Cancer is almost gone.
@@KevinSherry-gh9hj I understand he can't prescribe therapy. But it would be helpful if he could point in the direction of practitioners who could. How did you find a doctor for your wife?
@d.r.martin6301 We are in the UK, and as far as I am aware, there aren't any Doctor's offering treatments based on Professor Seyfried's research.
I know there is a Clinic in Istanbul that he is involved in but it's only in an advisory capacity.
I found reading his research and watching his interviews that we could implement his protocols ourselves as an adjunct to low dose Chemotherapy and Estrogen Suppressor.
I am happy to tell you what we did if you are interested.
@d.r.martin6301 Did you receive my reply regarding treatment, I can't see on here?
I had bladder cancer, diabetes, very high blood pressure, reduced kidney function, and overweight. I have been following Prof. Seyfried's teaching for over a year now. My kidney function is up. My diabetes is gone, my blood pressure is normal, and my recurring bladder cancer since 2015 is still at bay. I have dropped forty lbs. in just over a year. Actionable is eating correctly. I take no meds at all. I have learned of a doctor prescribing everything Prof Seyfried talks of. His name is Ken Berry, and he has hundreds of videos promoting the Ketogenic carnivore diet. I started eating a mostly carnivore diet, and a year into it, I am now younger than I started. I am 63 years old and will never eat grains, fruits, nuts, or anything out of the center isles of a grocery store again. Dr. Berry and Prof. Seyfried are accurate about humans being the only animals who have forgotten what to eat.
What is the response to the fact that most cancers have either a genetic or epigenetic cause? Also it has been observed that some cancer cells prefer fats to glucose to fuel their division.
Is the same, relevant for blood cancer too?
it's time to work with Robert Kennedy Jr to spread the word and change the cancer paradigm.
Professor, my husband died of GIST. Not much is known about its causes. How did he get this rare tumor in his chest? He was healthy, no diabetes, high blood pressure, not overweight.
I'm suffering deeply.
My father diagnosed with colon cancer with liver metastasis .can ketogenic diet with hyperbaric
It works much better when the body is in deep ketosis meaning gki is less than 1. Same for high dose intravenous vitamin C.
How to get rid of uterine cancer.. Help 😞
Put yourself into ketosis... no CARBOHYDRATES!
And use glutamine inhibitors too👍
You are listening too the DOCTOR, don't you recognize, Dr. Seyfried, man you are in the water, all you have to do is drink man, drink man.... Read his book cancer a metabolic disease & listen too All his social media clips.... you are in the right place...All the Best......
MMS or CDS. Apricot seeds, Fenbendazole, CBD oil, no sugar , keto diet , turmeric, ginger, burdock root, bee pollen,
Timeliness nutrition
Good day my wife was diagnosed with Nf2 does this fall under he same groups as cancer? What type of diet will the best for her
I’ve had cancer for four years with a diagnosis “very aggressive, very metastatic, 6 months to live without treatment”. After four years of no treatment but trying to do my best to follow what this or that expert says, I’m sick of all of the conflicting “information” out there. One expert says “eat this kind of diet” and the next says “don’t ever eat that but eat this”. I’ve been jerked around by experts for four years: fasting; eating vegetarian, vegan, keto, carnivore. Add this to your diet. Subtract this from your diet. Try this miracle cure. Don’t try that, try this. Now it’s cut out glucose and glutamine. Ok cut out glucose but glutamine is in everything including vegetables, dairy, meats, tofu, beans, nuts, seeds, grains. What should I live on besides water? I give up.
I feel your frustration and wish there was a clearer way to get the right answer's. I keep hearing properly completed 21 day fast will basically cleanse your body of all health problems. I know it sounds tin hat ish but I'm considering it
I haven’t experienced this but if I was given a diagnosis that I didn’t have long to live, I’d be prepared to try anything and Eveythjng in order to live. After all I might discover that what I tried the 17th time actually worked.
He does say that they can use drugs to target the glutamine.
@@darrenmacmullin6169 There again, I’ve heard alternate weekly fasts, dry fasts, fasts with food that makes your body THINK it’s fasting, fasting for 40 days. Fasting is incredibly hard when you have no extra fat and, read enough, and you’ll find all of the “don’t fast if”. No consensus, just take your chances.
@@lizwilliams14 I’ve been trying and trying. But that’s the thing: when time is limited, and that time is spent frantically searching for the one thing that may work and not kill you in the process, eventually you (I) lose hope. As for the drugs to inhibit glutamine, every drug has side effects and, glutamine is required by so many systems in the body that it seems ridiculous to only consider its affect on the cancer while possibly allowing its restriction to destroy any health you might still have.
@@darrenmacmullin6169 у меня рак молочной железы. Голодала непрерывно 32 дня на воде. Потом в течение года 5 дней сухих и периодические голодания и чистки. Придерживаюсь растительного питания. Пока рак растет. И за это время из 3 перешёл в 4 стадию. Я понимаю эту женщину. Все это не так просто и однозначно. И индивидуально
What about cancer in little children? How do those cases align with this theory?
Can these parasitic drugs be purchased otc ?
Panacur can be purchased on Amazon and various pet stores.
Get the yellow 3 pack as it is one gram per pack. That is the dose per day for most. Some folks require more.
Work out and make sure to lift weights. There’s glucose stored in our muscles, so need to release that…
@@StrawberrySoul77 Confused. Why is it good to release glucose from muscles? Wouldn't it be better to release fatty acid from excess fat? It seems like people with great experience with KD for athleticism (marathons) have zero body fat.
I watch all your videos and try my best to follow everything you say. I have Glioblastoma and want to live and now have necrosis of the brain. From the radiation seven months ago.
Get yourself a keto-mojo.
stop eating carbs, Eat high fat low carb diet. 80% calories from

Lower your blood sugar and get into ketosis. Get your GKI
May the Lord bless you. I dearly wish I had know of all this when my mother was diagnosed with glioblastoma back in 2012.
You can follow the advice on diet etc but you cannot get hold of the DON and the administration if it. And that part seems critical l believe. But of course Professor Seyfried is am absolute legend. 💯
What about little kids with cancer
Is there a clinic that we can go to? My wife has stage 4 breast cancer she has been taking chemo 5 different kind so far nothing os working she is getting worse by the day
You might try to contact him through the Boston College biology department website. He also wrote a book. Hopefully it’s a lead that can help
But what about the various cancers that are due to viruses?
Why do guys like Joe Zundell seem to disagree with parts of your findings. It’s confusing what he parts from you on. Ty!
Thank you for sharing this knowledge as a former practitioner and pharma physician, as a trained nutritionist, I see there is room for pharma on highly limited scale and by large most of diseases are preventable and rewind by wise nutrition, good sleep, peaceful walking in this life. Thank you
I helped a friend reverse cancer with Liposomal C at 16 grams
Hello, please tell me more. What Country are you in. I'm in the UK and want to see if I can get it here.
Thank you.
@KevinSherry-gh9hj
Contact me, I can help. I am in UK. Birmingham
@@KevinSherry-gh9hj My understanding from my Naturopath and my Dietician is you need ascorbic acid, not liposomal vitamin C. "Intravenous vitamin C has been shown in studies to decrease side effects of chemotherapy and increase efficacy." Dr Jonas KuehneMD
How can be explained many cases of so called "cancer families"?
Families eat the same diets and live in the same areas of the world. They will also have a lot of the same genes.
could be BS
Your thoughts please
For cancer
Dr John Campbell has been talking about ivermectrim
Your thoughts please for cancer treatment thank you
@@OleSmokey he believes in the "somatic mutation theory of cancer, like the rest of them!"
So people should eat foods that make their body use fat as an energy source as opposed to glucose. In other words we should try to eat more along the lines of keto diet.
@9:58 I disagree. We don't need to retrain the physicians, or generate revenue. People need to come to realize, grass roots, that doctors are sometimes wrong and don't have all the answers, and learn the information that people like Seyfried and colleagues are putting out. And testimonials of people using it successfully. This approach depends on the individuals' discipline and commitment as well; you cannot just prescribe something
I couldn't agree with you more. We have the information to help ourselves. We just need to take responsibility for our own health.
It appears the only missing part of the puzzle is the drug Don.
We did everything else, Professor Seyfried advised, and my Wife is no longer Stage 4.
Precisely! I didn't like that last part of his statement! That mindset has been what's led us to this point, already!
😢😢
Example of cancer without mutation seriously undermines the somatic mutation theory of cancers.
Absolutely mind blowing to hear The Seyfried metabolic cancer revelations lectures!
I agree with you, but the thing that really convinced me he was right was the nuclear transfer experiment he mentioned.
My Wife was diagnosed with stage 4 Breast Cancer 6years ago and told there was no hope for her.
We followed Professor Seyfried's advice, and now the Cancer is almost gone.
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
I am grom Pakistan and diagnosed Non hodgkin's lymphoma favouring with hair cells luekemia.I have got 5 doses on Restova chemo .My doctor will take bone marrow sample after 6 dose.Do you think sir your formula of metabolism is also applied on Blood cancers.Can I make you contact for further clarifications.Thanks Shahzad Lodhi
I can't honestly say, but this therapy will improve your health and may disrupt the cancer! Good luck!..❤❤
so is dementia, dont eat sugar
What I don't understand is that you always say, that cancer is not a genetic desease. How come than, that there are types of cancer that can statsictically be linked to certain genes with very high probability? Or that if your parents have a certain type of cancer you're also than very likely to get that kind of cancer?
Keto, ftw.
