Cancer is a metabolic disorder which is preventable if you follow few practices on a regular basis.
1) Avoid carcinogens in your environment such as tobacco smoke, benzene, pesticides, plastics, alcohol etc. The immune system’s response to foreign and carcinogenic substances can lead to inflammation that damages mitochondria.
2) Maintain healthy mitochondrial function. Mitochondria – highly efficient “engine” of your cells that convert oxygen and food into energy. When they get damaged, they start using less efficient fermentation pathways which lead to cancer.
3) Cancer cells burn fuels like glucose and glutamine for energy without oxygen. Glucose – simple sugar that gives energy to your body cells. Glutamine – amino acid that helps build proteins and supports immune & digestive systems.
4) Limit glucose and glutamine in your diet. Foods that contain high glucose: anything that is sweet, honey, dates, ripe bananas, white bread/potatoes, grapes. Foods that contain high glutamine: beef, eggs, milk & dairy, cabbage & spinach. Eat low carbohydrate food to be in nutritional ketosis. Practice fasting – this forces body to use fat resources and leads to reduction of tumor incidence.
5) Do exercises on a regular basis - this leads to lower blood sugar and glutamine availability. Exercise encourages mitochondria to burn ketones and oxygen efficiently.
6) Sleep enough and manage stress to prevent chronic damage to your body. Learn about these topics by searching them online by yourself.
7) Manage your Glucose Ketone Index (GKI) to make sure that the risk of cancer is low. GKI is calculated by dividing blood glucose (in molar) by blood ketones (in molar). A GKI of 2.0 or below reduces the risk of tumor growth, that is your target mark to aim at. You can measure your GKI using keto meter by pricking your finger for blood glucose and ketone levels.
