In this episode of Revolution Health Radio (RHR) we discuss “RHR: The Ketogenic Diet and Cancer" The conventional view of cancer is that it is caused by DNA mutations in the cell nuclei. However, the metabolic theory of cancer proposes that some cancers are caused by a dysfunction of cellular respiration and that the restriction of glucose in the diet may prevent and even reverse some cancers. Today I’ll review the research supporting this theory and explore how the ketogenic diet may impact cancer tumor growth.
 
In this episode we discuss:

- A disorder of energy metabolism
- Metabolic dysfunction may be a root cause
- How the ketogenic diet can help
- Existing research on keto and cancer
- Additional evidence supporting the metabolic theory
- Why keto alone may not be enough
