Ep. 171 Rethinking CFCs (Cancer), Parasites, And Healing


Listen Later

Fear thrives on vague labels; clarity starts with biology. We open by replacing the word “cancer” with “chronically fermenting cells,” so the focus shifts from doom to mechanism: cells favoring fermentation rather than oxidative phosphorylation. That reframe lets us explain PET scans and SUVs in plain language, showing how to distinguish metabolic activity from leftover anatomy, and why a smaller, quiet lesion can mean success even if it’s still visible.

From there, we build a full map of health that goes beyond any single protocol. Oral health emerges as a major, overlooked driver of systemic inflammation, making a visit to a true biological dentist a foundational step. We unpack environmental stressors—EMFs, persistent chemicals, ultra-processed food, and chronic sympathetic overdrive—that blunt immunity and confuse test results. On nutrition, we cut through the noise of diet wars and food myths, grounding choices in form-and-function design: eat to nourish and energize while reducing toxic load. Metabolic approaches make sense not as a fad but as measurable physiology, especially when tracked against baseline and follow-up imaging.

We also tackle practical questions listeners ask every week. Parasites aren’t just folklore; eggs, larvae, and adults respond to different agents, and the real goal is restoring balance so the body stops hosting trouble. For severe back pain, we highlight prolotherapy and prolozone as underused options that can stabilize and heal without the losses of fusion surgery. We walk through cases—Hodgkin’s with lingering hot spots, pediatric brain tumors with urgent decisions, skin lesions mislabeled into aggressive plans—and show how to sequence actions, reduce fear, and choose comprehensively rather than experiment piecemeal.

If you value honest guidance that puts mechanisms over buzzwords and meas
