CANCER METABOLIC THEORY

Cancer is a Metabolic Disease. Not a Genetic One.

The Warburg Effect — discovered in 1924 — demonstrates that cancer cells rely almost exclusively on anaerobic fermentation of glucose rather than oxidative phosphorylation, indicating that cancer is fundamentally a mitochondrial and metabolic disorder, not primarily driven by genetic mutation. Dr Thomas Seyfried and others have built a compelling body of peer-reviewed evidence showing that metabolic interventions — including ketogenic diets, glucose restriction, and hyperbaric oxygen — can suppress tumour growth by starving cancer of its preferred fuel.
