TUMOR SHRINKING DIET
◊ Malonate causes increased utilization of glucose due to
the Pasteur effect of a blocked Krebs cycle.
◊ Lactic acid formation is increased with malonate inhibi-
tion of respiration.
◊ Glycolysis is stimulated by malonate.
◊ Malonate has different effects on different tissues.
◊ Much less glucose goes to form amino acids and proteins
in the presence of malonate.
◊ Malonate induces the appearance of the pentose phos-
phate shunt.
◊ Malonate diverts fatty acid metabolism to acetoacetate.
◊ Malonate increases the formation of fatty acids up to 10-
fold.
◊ Maleic acid is a potent inhibitor of urinary acidification.
◊ Malonate inhibits oxidation of fatty acids.
◊ Malonate fed to dogs produces acetoacetate, acetone and
alcohol.
◊ Malonate can reduce the concentration of magnesium
and calcium to 25% or 50%.
◊ The methyl derivative of malonate depresses renal func-
tion.
◊ Malonic acid can form malonyl coenzyme A, which is
very stable, thereby depleting the system of coenzyme A.
(Coenzyme A has a nucleic acid base, adenine, plus
pantothenic acid and sulfur in its makeup. You will have
an increased need for these nutrients.)
◊ Malonate inhibits urea formation by reducing the supply
of oxaloacetate.
◊ Malonate inhibits cell cleavage (the formation of a wall
between 2 dividing cells).
◊ Benzaldehyde reacts with malonic acid.With this much harm coming from malonic acid, why have
we not noticed this as we eat malonate-containing food?
Shouldn’t we drop dead or at least get sick? Perhaps native
American Indians did notice and get sick. They considered to-
matoes toxic. Perhaps their superior physical condition—
enabling them to run ten miles a day!—also enabled them to
detect the toxic effect of a food. Perhaps we don’t detect it be-
cause we are already so debilitated.
