are increasingly shut off from their supply routes of oxygen and nutrients. This alters their basic
metabolism and eventually affects the DNA molecule itself.
Located in the nucleus of every cell, the DNA makes use of its six billion genes to mastermind and
control every single part and function of the body. Without the adequate supply of vital nutrients, the
DNA has no other choice but to alter its genetic program in order to guarantee the cell’s survival. Mutated
cells can survive in an environment of toxic waste. Soon they begin to draw nutrients from other
surrounding cells. For these nutrient-deprived cells to survive, they also need to subject themselves to
genetic mutation, which leads to the spreading or enlargement of the cancer. Cancerous growths are
anaerobic, which means that they develop and survive without the use of oxygen.
Nobel Prize winner Dr. Otto Warburg was one of the first scientists to demonstrate the principal
difference between a normal cell and a cancer cell. Both derive energy from glucose, but the normal cell
utilizes oxygen to combine with the glucose, whereas the cancer cell breaks down glucose without the use
of oxygen, yielding only 1/15 the energy per glucose molecule that the normal cell produces. It is very
obvious that cancer cells opt for this relatively inefficient and unproductive method of obtaining energy
because they have no access to oxygen anymore. The capillaries supplying oxygen to a group of cells or
to the connective tissue surrounding them (usually both) may be severely congested with harmful waste
material, noxious substances such as food additives and chemicals, excessive proteins, or decomposing
cellular debris, and unable to deliver enough oxygen and nutrients.
Because their oxygen and nutrient supply is blocked, cancer cells have an insatiable appetite for sugar.
This may also explain why people with constant cravings for sugar foods have a higher risk for
developing cancer cells or why cancer patients often want to eat large amounts of sweets. The main waste
product resulting from the anaerobic breakdown of glucose by cancer cells is lactic acid, which may
explain why the body of a cancer patient is so acidic, in contrast to the naturally alkaline body of a healthy
person.
To deal with the dangerously high levels of lactic acid and to find another source of energy, the liver
reconverts some of the lactic acid into glucose. In doing so, the liver uses 1/5 the energy per glucose
molecule that a normal cell can derive from it, but that's three times the energy a cancer cell will get from
it. To help feed the cancer cells, the body even grows new blood vessels, funneling more and more sugar
towards them. This means that the more the damaged cancer cells multiply, the less energy is available to
the normal cells, hence the sugar cravings. In a toxic body, the concentrations of both oxygen and energy
tend to be very low. This creates an environment where cancer spreads most easily. Unless the toxins and
the cancer’s food source are eliminated, and oxygen levels are sharply increased, the wasteful metabolism
associated with cancer becomes self-sustaining and the cancer spreads further. If death occurs it is not
caused by the cancer, though; it is due to wasting of body tissues and final acidosis.
Genetic mutation is now believed to be the main cause of cancer, yet in truth it is only an effect of
“cellular famine” and nothing more or less than the body’s desperate, but often unsuccessful, attempt to
live and survive. Something similar occurs in a person’s body when he uses antibiotics to fight an
infection. Most of the infection-causing bacteria that are being attacked by the antibiotics will be killed,
but some of them will survive and reprogram their own genes to become antibiotic-resistant.
Nobody really wants to die and this includes bacteria. The same law of nature applies to our body cells.
Cancer is the final attempt of the body to live, and not, as most people assume, to die. Without gene
mutation, those cells in the body that live in a toxic, anaerobic environment would simply suffocate and
expire. Similar to bacteria that are attacked with antibiotics, many cells, in fact, succumb to the poison
attack and die, but some manage to adjust to the abnormal changes of their natural environment. The cells
know that they will eventually die, too, once their final survival tactics fail to keep the body alive.
