One of Warburg’s crowning achievements was the discovery of what actually causes cancer.
And this is how we know how to prevent cancer.
Dr. Warburg figured out that what causes cancer — low metabolism.
In particular, cell metabolism is the key.
When cells have a high metabolism, they generate energy through what is called oxidative phosphorylation.
This process generates energy molecules in the mitochondria of each cell.
But when cells age, or when they’re not working very well, they only produce a small handful of energy molecules.
And they are more likely to prefer to burn fat, rather than sugar.
The telltale sign is hard, built up lactic acid in your muscles.
Cancer cells build lactic acid because they’re burning energy inefficiently.
And they do this to grow and reproduce quickly.
Many people think the cancer is caused by eating too much sugar, but that is not true.
In fact, consuming sugar is a function of a high metabolism in the body.
And cancer cells prefer fats and ketones, not sugar.
This study answers the question, do fats cause cancer?
In this study researchers found that cancer cells love ketones, which are created from fat.

This very low metabolism that results in lots of lactic acid production is a telltale sign of having cancer.
This lactic acid production needs ketones and fats to reproduce.
It doesn’t need sugar to grow at all.
Sugar consumption extremely healthy for people.
But when age, our metabolism falls and we start burning more and more fat… and less sugar.
On the other hand, burning fat for energy is actually symptomatic of a low metabolism.
And it frequently leads to a cancer metabolism.
This study was done on prostate cancer cells.
And it confirmed that prostate cancer loves lactic acid, loves ketones and loves burning fat.
The Warburg effect is this observation that cancer cells have a very low metabolism.
And that cancer cells prefer burning fat to burning sugar.
In fact, this may be a reason why aspirin inhibits most forms of cancer.
Salicylate is the active ingredient that we know as aspirin.
In this study, the results showed that aspirin blocks fat burning and encourages sugar burning.
Especially in fat cells.
Aspirin is a miracle drug for cancer because it helps lower cancer metabolism.
Aspirin is actually more powerful and more effective than chemotherapy in many cases.
I will have more to talk about aspirin for cancer in a newsletter in a few days.
For now, I wanted you to see how important it is to increase your metabolism.
Getting out of the cancer metabolism is probably the most important thing you can do to prevent, or even reverse, cancer.
Here are some things that help increase your metabolism.
Taking aspirin and vitamin D will both increase your metabolism.
Keeping more calcium than phosphorus in your diet also helps.
Keeping the amounts of methionine and tryptophan in your diet low are also good ideas.
Get plenty of magnesium and glycine to help increase metabolism as well.
Some of these in combination can increase metabolism by 40% or more.
And that means you truly burn off fat, you are always warm, and your body becomes inhospitable to cancer cells.
