This paper is dedicated to Amy—my closest friend, confidant, soulmate, lover, and wife. She was the mother of our children and the most important person in my life.
I hope this paper serves as a source of support for anyone facing the same hardships we endured. Amy and I fought together with unwavering determination, yet we were unable to overcome the challenge of a very aggressive cancer. Despite our efforts, she passed away only eighteen weeks after her diagnosis.
I have written this because we lacked the information that might have made a difference. Would things have turned out differently if we had known more? I cannot say for certain, but I believe it would have given us a better fighting chance.
Please share this with anyone you know who is battling this devastating disease.
Modern Advances in Cancer Treatment
I grew up believing that if a doctor gave you a diagnosis with the “C” word in it, you were as good as dead—and for the most part, you were. It was such a terrifying diagnosis that we never actually said the word, just the letter “C,” as if by saying it, you might get it. Your chances of beating cancer and surviving were slim to none. Even today, most cancer patients will not survive. This no longer needs to be the case. It may take another ten years or more until this “truth” is accepted by mainstream medicine. Unfortunately, this is part of the human condition: great change is met by great resistance. And so it is with the research that has led to new cancer treatments.
The leading research, which is ongoing at St. Ignatius Hospital in Boston, has found that cancer—all cancers—is not a disease of genetic mutation, which is the commonly held view among most oncologists today. It is, rather, a nutritional breakdown at the cellular level. Something happens to the cells, whether it’s caused by toxins like tobacco smoke in the case of lung and throat cancer, the HPV virus in the case of uterine and testicular cancer, or environmental toxins like plastics in the case of liver, kidney, and even brain cancer. In all cancers, the same thing appears to happen: over time, the cells that turn cancerous stop functioning properly.
The mitochondria, the powerhouse in a healthy cell, use blood sugar (glucose) and other sources of nutrition combined with oxygen to create energy, with CO2 and water as byproducts. In a cancerous cell, the mitochondria break down and lose the ability to use oxygen, turning instead to a form of fermentation to produce the energy they need to survive. A normal, healthy cell can and does use a wide variety of molecules to produce the energy it needs, such as simple sugars, fats, and ketones. Cancerous cells, on the other hand, cannot. They can only use glucose and an α-amino acid Glutamine, as their energy source. They do not use or need oxygen. They don’t metabolize their energy source; they ferment it. This leaves the cancerous cells in a precarious and vulnerable position that can be taken advantage of. If their very limited food source is removed, the cancer cells die.
If an alternative food source is found for healthy cells that does not include foods converted into glucose—the sugars and starches in our diet—and if Glutamine can be blocked from absorption with medication, then, plain and simple, the cancer cells starve and die. The way to achieve this is called Therapeutic Ketosis. Not dissimilar to the start of many “low-carb” diets, this requires intermittent water-only fasting, a strict no-carb diet that reaches ketosis, and, most importantly, the willpower to beat this disease. Any restrictive diet is difficult under the very best of conditions, and this is no exception. But this could very well save your life.
No one is suggesting giving up on traditional cancer treatments. You will not find empathy from your oncological team over your choice of an adjunctive method of treatment. You will have to become your own healthcare advocate, contacting the doctors in Boston for their help. But there is now a choice, giving you the ability to take treatment options into your hands for a change.
As I stated in the beginning, we are at least a decade away from this treatment becoming part of the medical mainstream. However, as the poet Dylan Thomas said, “Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.” This is your battle. You can win this!

You are essentially claiming that this is a cure for cancer.

My small concern with this taffy is: how much sugar does it really contain? (Sugar being overly attractive to cancer cells).
