Arguably, the biggest champion over the years for cancer as a metabolic disease and largely ignored by medical opinion leaders, has been Dr. Thomas Seyfried who has promoted ketogenic diets as an adjunct to conventional treatment. A state of ketosis lowers blood sugar which tumor cells need, and elevates ketone bodies which normal cells can use for energy but tumor cells can’t. But even he seems blind to the clues about viral causation. In a 2014 study in Cancer Letters, he augments his theory of the central role of metabolism in glioblastoma in describing how 90% of brain tumor cells are infected by cytomegalovirus, “which is a supercharger for allowing tumor cells to use glucose and glutamine.” That biochemical pathway allows energy for tumors to grow despite inadequate oxygenation. But he doesn’t ask, why are viruses there to begin with and what other role might they play? Is this an example of mind control suppression to limit scientific progress?
