Welcome to the Doctor Burg, healthy ketone, intermittent fasting podcast, now your host,

the man taking your health to a whole new level, Dr. Eric Burg.

So I had a question from someone that wanted to know, can a ketone feed cancer, okay?

We know about glucose and glutamine, but what about ketones, okay?

So I basically contacted Professor Seafried, Thomas Seafried, and I asked him this question,

and I'm going to be doing this video based on what he told me, which is some very interesting

data.

If you don't know anything about Professor Seafried, he is the top expert on cancer.

And if you haven't seen the video, I'll put the link down below where I interviewed him.

This guy is super, super smart.

He does research on cancer, and he knows probably more about ketones than anyone that

I've ever met, especially in the research department knows as much as he does about cancer

in ketosis, in fasting, and the research on a low carb diet, and what it can do for

your immune system, and what it does for cancer.

So I'm going to try to keep this very simple, but I want to explain what he said.

I want to also give you a link to the article that he posted about this topic.

So the first thing he said was ketones and fatty acids might be used in some slow-growing

tumor cells that have retained some level of respiratory capacity.

Now I have to explain what that means, starting with this right here, respiratory capacity.

Then you look at the difference between a cancer cell and a normal cell.

There's one big difference.

And it's how that cancer cell is using its fuel or metabolizing its fuel.
