The Best Article About the Link Between Sugar and Cancer [VIDEO]
I'm giving you something here that you'll rarely see.
A full reprint of an article I found online. As a content creator, I believe, as does my employing company, Townsquare Media, that I should be producing original stuff.
In this case, when I read this article, it so beautifully expresses exactly what has been on my mind since October, that I don't feel I can say it better. I don't have much to add.
Except that you should read it. And whatever you don't understand, click the links so that you can become more familiar with these ideas, because they literally could be the difference between life and death.
Healthy Holistic Living produced it and wrote it, so give them some love. While you are at it, follow Just Eat Real Food on Facebook. They are how I found this real gem of a blog post.
I explain more in the video.
Here is the article, reprinted in it's in entirety, from the aforementioned website.
HOW TO STARVE CANCER TO DEATH BY REMOVING THIS ONE THING FROM YOUR DIET
Cancer rates are on the rise, and there are many factors that cause cancer that range from our environment to our emotions. But, food is everything, what you eat is what radiates out, but there is a way to cut something out of your diet and make your body thrive.
Cancer’s Fuel – SugarDr. Otto Wartburg along with other health experts have been talking about how cancer loves sugar since the 1920s. Surprisingly many doctors don’t tell their cancer patients that as long as they continue to eat processed foods full of the stuff, they will likely have a more difficult time fighting this disease.
The German physiologist, leading biochemist, medical doctor, and Nobel laureate was convinced that you could starve cancer right out of the body. While it may not always be that easy, this is something that could significantly change the game.
His theory was that malignant cells and tumor growth was caused by cells that generated energy via adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through a nonoxidative breakdown of glucose (sugar). The recycling of the metabolite from this process called glycolysis and the circulation of adhA back into the body caused anaerobic respiration. This is the reverse of what happens with healthy cells. Healthy, non-cancerous cells generate energy for the body to use through the oxidative breakdown of pyruvate, the end product of glycolysis, which leads to oxidized mitochondria. He therefore concluded that cancer was really a mitochondrial dysfunction. The normal process of respiration of oxygen in the body is changed to the fermentation of sugar. If you remove the sugar, the body should not develop cancer.
The connection between sugar and cancer development is certainly not new.
Most people can easily remove the obvious culprits that are full of refined sugar – cakes, candies, cookies, etc. The problem is that many foods which are packaged and sold in the US and in other countries are full of refined sugar, but are hidden in the packaging labels. Products like ‘healthy’ yogurt, cereals, whole wheat or whole grain breads, and even ‘low-calorie’ items can be full of sugar.
The easiest way to eliminate unwanted refined sugars is to stop buying ‘convenience’ or pre-packaged foods, and at least temporarily, don’t eat out at restaurants – many dining establishments source their food from big companies that ‘season’ their food with lots of sugar and salt to make it more palatable after being frozen and shipped across the country in trucks. Even just salad dressings can be loaded with sugar. To deal with cravings for sugary foods, increase your plant-based and healthy animal based proteins (no red meat) and eat more nutrition-packed foods.
