Cancer

Cancer has typically been considered a disease of proliferation. But Professor Thomas Seyfried of Boston College has long been a proponent of Otto Warburg's work in the 1930s declaring that cancer originates from dysfunctional cellular respiration (a series of chemical reactions that break down glucose to produce energy). Dr. Seyfried wrote a book: Cancer as a Metabolic Disease, which outlines the scientific data that supports that cancer is a disease of the mitochondria, and it can be managed by switching the fuel sources of the cell (glucose and glutamine) to ketone bodies. As such, a personalized metabolic therapy can be used to address cancer to match an individual's unique physiology. WE believe that the etiology of the success of the Press Pulse Protocol is the lowering of deuterium and increasing Molecular Hydrogen to improve mitochondrial function.

Liquid Blood Biopsy

A liquid blood biopsy is a non-invasive blood test that analyzes tumor material such as circulating cancer stem cells, cancer cells, DNA or RNA fragments, proteins or exosomes in bodily fluids to detect cancer.

Dr. Seyfried's Press Pulse Protocol

The mainstay of Dr. Seyfried's Press Pulse Protocol is a glucose restricted diet to reach a metabolic zone with (Press) low blood glucose and high plasma ketones. The high ketones will protect the normal cells and give them a replacement fuel source that cannot be used by cancer cells. While in ketosis, (Pulse) hyperbaric oxygen therapy, glutamine blockers (the other source of fuel for cancer cells), and even low dose radiation and chemotherapy have all been seen to have a more effective response on tumor size and proliferation. This regimen is difficult to sustain on a long term basis, especially while maintaining muscle mass. More than likely the gains are due to the decrease in deuterium, which can be achieved more easily in combination with other modalities, making it easier to optimize mitochondrial function.
