Ketogenic Research and the Effects on Cancer Cells
To build a basic understanding of why Ketosis can assist in fighting cancer, it's important to understand the metabollic mechanisms in play in these mutated cells.
Cancer And It's Ties To Being A Metabollic Disease
We already recognize the metabollic abnormalities of cancers and even sometimes utilize their higher than a healthy cell's rate of sugar absorption to perform studies on turmors, such as with the sugars delivered in PET scans.
