A speaker asserts that colonoscopy has never been proven to reduce the mortality and morbidity of colorectal cancer in the population. They claim that society is spending many, many billions of dollars on a test that has never been proven to reduce the disease for which it is intended. They further state that, in reality, far greater numbers of people are suffering detrimental effects and adverse reactions to the colonoscopy procedure than the number of people who are actually diagnosed with colorectal cancer. The speaker emphasizes that, if about fifty five thousand are diagnosed every year as suffering from the condition, over seventy thousand are suffering from the horrific effects, adverse effects of the actual procedure called colonoscopy. In their view, society is paying a substantial amount for this situation. The speaker then presents a conclusion that there is an alternative to colonoscopy. They identify this alternative as being a test called M2PK. This assertion introduces an option they believe should be considered as an alternative to the conventional screening method discussed. The overall message conveyed is that the widely used screening method of colonoscopy has not demonstrated population-level mortality or morbidity benefits for colorectal cancer, accompanied by a large burden of adverse effects, and that the M2PK test represents another approach to address the issue.

A new study shows cancer rates in the UK are rising across all age groups, but most significantly in those under 50, with a 24% increase. This means around 35,000 younger individuals are diagnosed annually, about 100 per day. The under-25s also saw a rise of 16%. While overall cancer rates are up 13%, with 90% of cases in those over 50, the increase in younger people is concerning. Scientists believe unhealthy lifestyles, like obesity, lack of exercise, and diets high in ultra-processed foods, are major factors. These can cause cellular changes, inflammation, and an unhealthy gut microbiome, affecting overall health and increasing cancer risk. The good news is that 40% of cancers are preventable through healthy habits like exercise, sunscreen use, maintaining a healthy weight, eating whole foods, limiting alcohol, and avoiding smoking. Early diagnosis and symptom awareness are also crucial due to potential genetic factors.

Vitamin D alone could prevent about 30,000 cancer deaths in a single country in a single year. The study looked in Germany and examined what would happen if they administered wide-scale vitamin D to the 50 and older population. Based on the most recent meta-analyses of vitamin D and cancer, there is about a 13% reduction in cancer mortality, and that is extrapolated to an entire country, resulting in saving about 30,000 lives per year. A recent paper on vitamin D and cancer and its biological effects is highlighted: there are over 900 peer-reviewed recent papers finding that vitamin D, when raised to adequate levels, exhibits anticancer activity against literally basically every single cancer known, through vitamin D receptor signaling as well as tumor microenvironment control and immune modulation. This is described as very, very important as winter months approach, so ensuring adequate vitamin D intake is advised. The speaker notes that some of the most powerful cancer prevention tools are neither profitable nor novel, and vitamin D is very inexpensive, biologically active, and, according to randomized clinical trial evidence, saves lives at scale. The main question posed is why public health agencies are ignoring this.

An alarming increase in aggressive colorectal cancers, termed "turbocancers," has been observed since the rollout of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. This rise is evident across all age groups, with significant increases in younger patients. Despite various theories, such as lifestyle changes and delayed diagnoses due to lockdowns, these do not explain the sudden surge post-2021. The correlation between the vaccine rollout and the rise in cancer cases fulfills several epidemiological criteria for causation. Potential mechanisms include immune suppression and disruptions to tumor suppressor functions. Many healthcare professionals have noted similar patterns and expressed concerns about vaccine safety. There is a growing consensus that the vaccines may be linked to these aggressive cancer trends, prompting calls for an immediate halt to their promotion and distribution.

The speaker cites two population studies on COVID-19 vaccines and cancer risk, claiming they show massive increases in multiple cancers. The first study, from Italy, followed 300,000 Italians for about 30 months and reported about a 23 percent increased risk of overall cancer hospitalizations, with increases of about 40 to 60 percent in breast cancer hospitalizations, colorectal cancer, bladder cancer, and leukemia/lymphoma. A new study from South Korea, involving over eight million Koreans, purportedly corroborates the Italian data and expands on it. It reports about a 26 percent increase in overall cancer risk and increases across six major types of cancer, including gastric, thyroid, colorectal, and breast cancer, as well as other cancers described as very rare. The speaker frames these findings as an absolute disaster and claims they confirm that the vaccines have unleashed a turbo cancer epidemic. They state that the datasets corroborate these results and that the observed effects can be explained by gene expression chaos documented in other studies, along with genomic integration observed in stage four cancer patients. The speaker characterizes the situation as a disaster that needs immediate acknowledgment.

People are getting colon cancer at younger ages due to low-fiber diets. The human body, especially the gut, requires 20 to 30 grams of fiber daily to function properly. Younger people consuming ultra-processed foods get very little fiber from birth, leading to poor gut health after 15 to 20 years. The gut, with possibly trillions of processes, is crucial for overall health, and imbalance can trigger a cascade leading to colon cancer. Increasing daily fiber intake through fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, beans, legumes, and lentils is essential.

Speaker 0: Let's start with I had predicted, unfortunately, and I hate that I am right. I predicted before the vaccines were ever launched to the public that they would have a profound impact on the immune system. And as a result of that alone, would likely cause increased cancer rates just because of their immunological impact. So let's start, if you would, just by talking a little bit about what you are seeing in the data, in the numbers with regard to cancers, what kinds of cancers, those sorts of things. And then maybe we'll get into the weeds, you and I, about perhaps some of the pathology of that, why that might be, some theories for why we're seeing these numbers. Speaker 1: You know, Doctor. Kelly, I've been tracking these turbo cancers as they're being called, these very aggressive cancers that are showing up in young COVID vaccinated people. The youngest case I've reported is a 12 year old boy who had a Moderna vaccine and came down with, end stage brain cancer that killed him in less than a year. I'm seeing it in teenagers in university and college students who are mandated to take COVID vaccines. People in their twenties, thirties, forties, fifties are coming down with stage four cancers. These cancers are presenting at a late stage, stage three, but usually stage four. These are lymphomas, leukemias, these are breast cancers, colon cancers, lung cancers, hepatobiliary cancers, testicular cancers in young men, ovarian cancers in women, kidney cancers, renal cell cancers, melanomas, skin cancers, and sarcomas as well. So these are the types of cancers that are showing up in a younger cohort than oncologists expect. They're showing up at a late stage. The tumors can grow very large. So some of these tumors are described as football sized, even watermelon sized, you know, these are ten, fifteen centimeter tumors, and they're very aggressive and and they really they spread very rapidly. Even when the surgeons are trying to get at them, trying to surgically excise them so that they could control the tumor, what they usually find after surgery is that the tumor has already spread. It's already spread to the lymph nodes, it's already spread to the lungs or the bones, very aggressive cancers, and really related to the COVID-nineteen vaccine specifically, and mRNA vaccines, the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines. Speaker 0: One of the things, me just step back for a second, because one of the things that might not be known to our audience is that all cancers are not created equal with regard to the population that they hit. You know, for example, we not uncommonly and tragically see certain blood cancers in children leukemias, for example. It wouldn't be uncommon, to to see a brain tumor, brain cancers sometimes in young children. It would be extraordinarily uncommon to see a colon cancer in somebody before the fourth or fifth decade. Very uncommon to see a lung cancer before the fourth or fifth decade. Those sorts of things, extremely uncommon to see. So some of these cancers that we are seeing, and I think you're getting at that, things like these colon cancers, we are now seeing colon cancers in people in their late teens, twenties, and thirties. And again, as you said, very aggressive colon cancers. So it's not just that cancers per se, but it's seeing cancers in in groups of people in whom they'd never seen before. So let's in terms of just to put some magnitude on it. In terms of give us some sense of the magnitude versus what we would have considered to be the baseline numbers. Speaker 1: You know, it's very hard to get a sense of this because it's almost impossible to get good cancer data from from the governments. Know, Ed Dowd has talked about this, the difficulty of getting good data. You know, I've tried to get cancer data here in Canada from Statistics Canada, from the Canadian Cancer Society, and they are not reporting any data from 2021 or 2022. It seems they're holding this data back. And so I'm left with anecdotal evidence. When Ed Dowd, you know, he'll report from US insurance data that disability rates, in the working population, let's say, eighteen to sixty four, who abided by the COVID vaccine mandates, disability rates are 500% higher compared to the working population who dropped out of the workforce and didn't want to get the vaccines. Well, a big portion of those disabilities are these cancers, are these cancer diagnoses. And so, you know, I'm seeing an explosion of these cancers. I'm seeing it in doctors. I'm seeing it in nurses. I'm seeing it in other vaccine mandated professions. So all types of healthcare workers, I'm seeing it in teachers, I'm seeing it in police officers, firefighters, the military. You know, you see it in flight attendants, for example, you know, you had these airlines that wanted to have 100% vaccinated workforce. So really anywhere where there were very strict COVID vaccine mandates, that's where I'm seeing these explosions of these very aggressive cancers. And I can tell you, this year, '23, seems to be much worse. There's many more cases of these turbo cancers than in 2022 or 2021. The trend is upwards. The numbers are on the rise. You can see this on websites like GoFundMe. If you go on GoFundMe and you put stage four cancer and you can pick whatever cancer you want, you could put, you know, breast cancer, you could put lung cancer, colon cancer. Not only are you seeing the shocking ages, young ages of these individuals who are reporting their cancers and their fundraising because, you know, they lose their jobs when they're undergoing chemotherapy, for example, by you see just how many people are suffering are coming down from these cancers, especially in 2023. It's just unbelievable. It's a tsunami of cancer diagnosis.

Colleagues of, doctor Seung Song have seen colon cancer, and again, colon cancer, again, associated with older age groups. Now we do get colon cancer sometimes as a result of genetic abnormality in people in their thirties, forties, even twenties, tragically. It does happen. But typically, that's due to some specific genetic abnormality. Colleagues of doctor Seung Song are seeing cancers in eight, 10, and 11 year olds. Again, this is just unheard of.

"This Is Feeding Cancer Cells!" - How To Starve & Prevent Disease Early On | Dr. Thomas Seyfried
Guests: Thomas Seyfried, Daniel Orrego, Gregory Howard, Michelle Howard, Lara Adler, Andrew Lacy, Joe Zundell
reSee.it Podcast Summary
The discussion centers on the metabolic origins of cancer, emphasizing that cancer cells often revert to ancient fermentation pathways for energy, leading to uncontrolled growth. This process is linked to mitochondrial dysfunction, which produces reactive oxygen species (ROS) that damage cellular components, resulting in mutations. The focus of cancer research has largely been on downstream mutations rather than addressing the root cause—metabolic dysregulation. The Warburg effect highlights that cancer cells primarily use glucose and glutamine as fermentable fuels, akin to ancient cells that thrived in low-oxygen environments. To combat cancer, it is proposed to restrict these fermentable fuels while transitioning healthy cells to utilize ketone bodies and fatty acids, which cancer cells cannot ferment. This approach aims to deprive cancer cells of their energy sources while supporting normal cells. The ketogenic diet, initially used for epilepsy, is discussed as a potential therapeutic strategy for cancer. It lowers blood sugar and increases ketone production, which can benefit healthy cells while starving cancer cells. The importance of maintaining low blood sugar levels to manage cancer is emphasized, as spikes in glucose can fuel tumor growth. The conversation also touches on the challenges of traditional cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation, which may inadvertently promote tumor growth by increasing available nutrients in the tumor microenvironment. The need for a more integrated approach that combines metabolic therapy with conventional treatments is highlighted, suggesting that low doses of chemotherapy could be more effective when the body is in a ketogenic state. Case studies and preclinical research indicate that metabolic therapies can slow tumor progression and improve patient outcomes. However, the implementation of these strategies in clinical settings faces obstacles due to adherence to traditional treatment protocols and regulatory barriers. The discussion further explores the role of environmental toxins in cancer development, emphasizing that lifestyle modifications could prevent a significant percentage of cancer cases. The importance of addressing socioeconomic factors that limit access to healthy foods and healthcare is also acknowledged, as these disparities contribute to higher cancer rates in disadvantaged communities. Overall, the conversation advocates for a paradigm shift in cancer treatment, focusing on metabolic health, dietary interventions, and a holistic understanding of cancer as a complex disease influenced by various factors, including genetics, environment, and lifestyle. The goal is to empower patients with knowledge and strategies to take control of their health and improve their chances of survival.

Main Cause Of Cancer? - How It Spreads In The Body & How To STARVE IT With Fasting | Dr. Jason Fung
reSee.it Podcast Summary
The discussion centers around the evolutionary perspective of cancer, emphasizing that it is not solely a genetic disease but significantly influenced by environmental factors. The host explains Darwin's concept of natural selection using the example of Galapagos birds with varying beak sizes adapted to their food sources. Similarly, cancer develops through chronic damage to cells influenced by environmental conditions rather than just genetic predisposition. For instance, breast cancer rates can dramatically increase when a Japanese woman moves to the U.S., highlighting the role of environment. Research indicates that tobacco smoke accounts for approximately 35% of cancer cases, while diet contributes around 30%. The host notes that obesity, particularly hyperinsulinemia, is a major driver of cancer, with the World Health Organization identifying 13 cancers related to obesity. The conversation shifts to the importance of understanding dietary impacts on cancer, revealing that traditional views on vitamins and dietary components have not proven effective in preventing cancer. Fasting and caloric restriction are discussed as methods to improve metabolic health and potentially extend lifespan. The host explains that fasting activates autophagy, a process that removes damaged cellular components, promoting rejuvenation. This aligns with the idea that reducing insulin levels through dietary changes can lower cancer risk, as cancer cells thrive on insulin and glucose. The conversation transitions to the historical understanding of cancer, outlining three paradigms. The first paradigm views cancer as excessive cell growth, leading to treatments focused on killing cells. The second paradigm identifies genetic mutations as the cause of cancer growth, but this approach has limitations due to the complexity and variability of genetic mutations across different cancers. The third paradigm introduces an evolutionary ecological perspective, suggesting that cancer cells revert to survivalist behaviors akin to single-celled organisms when faced with chronic environmental stressors. The host emphasizes the need for a supportive environment and community to facilitate healthier behaviors, particularly regarding diet and fasting. They advocate for structural changes in workplaces to eliminate unhealthy snacking and promote healthier eating habits. Overall, the discussion highlights the importance of understanding cancer as a complex interplay of genetics, environment, and evolutionary biology, encouraging proactive lifestyle changes to mitigate cancer risk.
