until the fermentable fuels in the microenvironment were dissipated, and then these cells would up and die. So that told me right away that the way you kill cancer cells is you deprive them of their fermentable fuels. And because that's what's driving the dysregulated growth. They're dysregulated because the mitochondria are no longer in control of the system.

And now they're just growing as long as they have fermentable fuels, just like our ancestral cells 2.5 billion years ago. Now, why did biology start to have integrated action? And that was with the symbiotic interaction between one type of protistobacteria that could harvest the energy of oxygen in the cell, which led to metazoans, which are more than one cell. They're multicellular.

Multicellularity arose with the origin of the mitochondria in the cytoplasm. That led to regulated growth. So you have to go back really long in evolutionary terms to find such systems where preceded mitochondria in the evolution of organisms on the planet. And these cancer cells are going back that far.

So they will grow out of control as long as they have fermentation fuels in their micro environment. And as we have shown, and Warburg had shown, glucose is a prime fermentable fuel in the micro environment of the tumor cell. And as we have now shown, the amino acid glutamine is another fermentable fuel in the tumor microenvironment. So the solution to the cancer problem now becomes very clear.

You need to restrict the availability of the fermentable fuels while transitioning the body over to fuels that cannot be fermented, like fatty acids and ketone bodies. So this is a clear strategy to manage cancer without toxicity. You target simultaneously the two fuels that are driving the beast, both fermentable fuels, and you transition the rest of the body over to...

Glucose and glutamine are the fermentable fuels in the microenvironment. And then you transition the body over to ketone bodies or fatty acids, which cannot be fermented. So these two fuels cannot be fermented by cancer cells, which require fermentation for growth. So it becomes very clear. But ketones do not kill cancer cells.

Ketones and fatty acids are for the good of the normal cells of our body. They don't need glucose and glutamine if they can respire fatty acids in ketone bodies. They don't have dysfunctional mitochondria. The cancer cell does.

So we can marginalize the cancer cell simply by depriving it of its fermentable fuels and protecting all of the normal cells in the body by shifting them over to ketone bodies, which now becomes a non-fuel for the cancer cell.
