I’ve read over 50 books this year and this book was one of the best! Seriously. It reads like a novel. So if you or a loved one has cancer and you’d like to learn about cancer in a way that is entertaining rather than overwhelming don’t you DARE miss this podcast or Travis’ awesome book.
Here are some of the awesome tidbits you’re in for:
What the Metabolic Theory of Cancer is Why this theory was swept under the rug Why James Watson (the man who discovered DNA) no longer thinks cancer is a genetic disease Why we know that genes are not the only drivers of cancer The shocking story of how chemotherapy was adopted as a cancer treatment Which types of cancer seem to respond best to the ketogenic diet Why the ketogenic diet itself, may not be enough Which other therapies and strategies are showing great potential Whether or not keto diets should be used preventatively ] Whether kids should do the ketogenic diet preventatively Travis’ thoughts on the use of ketone supplements If lowering blood sugar is enough to prevent and manage cancer Where you can go to receive cutting-edge treatment protocols What we need to change about our medical system And MUCH more!
