Cancer and Lifestyle with Dr. Thomas Seyfried - Episode 2468

Episode 2468 - On this Friday's show Vinnie Tortorich welcomes Dr. Thomas Seyfried and they discuss metabolic dysfunction and therapies, cancer and lifestyle, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2024/03/cancer-and-lifestyle-with-dr-thomas-seyfried-episode-2468 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE - Cancer and Lifestyle Vinnie explains why he recommends listening to Dr. Thomas Seyfried. (2:00) Vinnie has been in remission and avoided chemo for 17 years by leading a ketogenic lifestyle. There are all kinds of side effects from chemotherapy, even though it can save people. There have been several theories of disease. (8:00) NCI states that cancer is a genetic disease of dysregulated cell growth, called the somatic mutation theory. Research has shown that damage to organelles causes mutations in cells. The treatment of cancer as a metabolic disease also allows people to participate in the management of their disorder. He explains the importance of oxygen and energy and how it affects the cells. (11:00) This is known as the mitochondrial metabolic theory of cancer. Dr. Seyfried explains some highly interesting experiments and theories. (14:00) Once there is an agreement on the mitochondria metabolic theory, treatment for cancers could be much less toxic and more manageable. (17:00) Cancer and lifestyle have been studied extensively. The idea is to reduce or eliminate the cancer through diet and medication that target the fermentation metabolism. They discuss glutamine and its uses in the body. (22:30) The Glucose Ketone Index What kind of diet and supplementation can help those who may have cancer? (27:30) The Glucose Ketone Index (GKI) calculator and how it works is explained. How the GKI happens can vary per person, but if you can keep the GKI measurement at 2.0 mmol or below, you can put pressure on the tumor cells. (29:00) Each person is their own experiment. Vinnie asks Dr. Seyfried to explain ketone measurements and monitors. (32:30) He explains some of the factors in various genes and what they mean, like in BRCA in women. There may be more options rather than getting radical surgery. They discuss the frustration of some doctor’s approaches to other diseases. (40:00) Type 2 diabetes has replaced smoking as the number one risk factor for cancer! (43:15) They discuss the challenges of today’s diet and lifestyle. (46:00) Low-cost and convenience foods are taking their toll on society’s health. Give people the opportunity to make their own choices. Many doctors need to be re-educated, and people need to know all their options. (50:30) Processed food and glucose are a highly addictive force on the brain. (51:00) Dr. Seyfried is a professor who shares information about and is developing a protocol, which he hopes will be available soon.

Dr. Ben Bikman doesn’t think GLP-1 is a good idea; he has been studying GLP-1 since they were first being researched. You can listen to that episode (#2405) through and on YouTube. Gina asks about chewing gum as an appetite suppressant. (15:30) Vinnie recommends not listening to that source of information and gives his reasons.

Pre-cooked grass-fed tri-tip is a good shortcut, as long as it doesn’t have junk ingredients. She doesn’t want to be caught without something quick to make so she isn’t tempted to grab drive-thru junk food. Gina has a new Instagram and a new website, .
