  Dr Longo was the first. 7 years ago my wife had breast cancer where she got 9 cycles of chemo, immunotherapie and radiation . We always walked each day 6 kilometer at 6 kilometer per hour. With the chemo we tried to walk. My wife couldn't walk during the first chemo cycle because she was sooooo tired and sick in the stomach.I proposed her to fast 2 days before and 3 days after the second chemo cycle based on dr Longo and don't eat any carbohydrate during her eating window. She did just that and she could walk easily 6 km during the 8 further chemo cycles. She was one of the vieuw who managed to finish the 9 chemo cycles said the dokter. Now we both eat each day on intermittent fasting basis and no carbohydrate. She is still cancer free.

  My wife was diagnosed with stage 3 non-small cell lung cancer 1 year ago, after learning about the work of Dr Phillips and Professor Thomas Seyfried, I put her on a strict Keto diet with only one fasting day per week, we have not seen any new Tumor growth since, and there&apos;s plenty more we can do.<br>Thank you so much!❤

  <b>Key Points to Remember After You Watch The Video. (Thank Me Later):</b><br>1. Modern medicine often focuses on treating symptoms with drugs instead of finding the root cause of diseases (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=90">1:30</a>).<br><br>2. Cancer cells love to eat glucose, so using metabolic therapy to lower glucose and raise ketones can make it hard for them to grow (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=467">7:47</a>).<br><br>3. The Glucose Ketone Index or GKI is a special measurement of blood sugar and ketones that doctors want to keep low to fight cancer (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=940">15:40</a>).<br><br>4. The study used a team effort of a ketogenic diet, intermittent fasting, and eight long five day fasts to help patients (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=380">6:20</a>).<br><br>5. Doctors were worried that patients would lose too much muscle, but the study showed that intentional weight loss in this program was safe (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=720">12:00</a>).<br><br>6. The metabolic therapy helped normal cells stay strong and protected during tough cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiation (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=506">8:26</a>).<br><br>7. Patients who followed the diet felt better and kept their quality of life high, which is just as important as living longer (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=623">10:23</a>).<br><br>8. The results were amazing because the group doing metabolic therapy lived much longer on average than those just doing standard care (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=1162">19:22</a>).<br><br>9. While standard care usually has only a 9 percent chance of survival past three years, this study saw a 27 percent success rate for its group (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=1200">20:00</a>).<br><br>10. Every single person who started the program was able to finish all eight of the five day fasts (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=1497">24:57</a>).<br><br>11. While this was a small study, it gives scientists a great foundation to start larger trials for other types of cancer (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=1770">29:30</a>).<br><br>12. Future research will look at why some people respond better than others so that every patient can be helped by these metabolic changes (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCS_pqa7l_M&amp;t=1874">31:14</a>).<br><br>I hope I can get to 1 million subscribers soon. 💪💪💪

  I had prostate cancer 3+4=7 not aggressive at 10%. psa 5.7 I was put on active surveillance. When diagnosed i started a carnivore/keto diet with 3 to 5 days fasting. To my wife&apos;s disappointment, but my urologist said go for it. My next 4 psa test where below 3. My urologist she they must be fake readings, we won&apos;t know anything until your next biopsy. 12 months later the biopsy came back with my grade 7 cancer gone. Fingers cross it will tay like this. Also while doing this diet i found my hayfever, anxiety and knee/back pain went away. I&apos;m 2 years in now and my psa is 2.8. I&apos;m still on edge and nervous ever time i do a psa.

  Five day fast are nothing compared to the stress of many cancer therapies. Several of the days of a five day fast are just pleasure. Freedom, like taking a vacation.
