This book is a summary of Dr. Thomas Seyfrieds book "Cancer as a metabolic disease" and comprises transcripts of his talks and interviews, as well as texts by his collegue Dr. Dominic D'Agostiono and Travis Christofferson (whose foundation will be supported by this book).

Here the original Book
The book addresses controversies related to the origins of cancer and provides solutions to cancer management and prevention. It expands upon Otto Warburg's well-known theory that all cancer is a disease of energy metabolism. However, Warburg did not link his theory to the "hallmarks of cancer" and thus his theory was discredited.This book aims to provide evidence, through case studies, that cancer is primarily a metabolic disease requring metabolic solutions for its management and prevention. Support for this position is derived from critical assessment of current cancer theories.Brain cancer case studies are presented as a proof of principle for metabolic solutions to disease management, but similarities are drawn to other types of cancer, including breast and colon, due to the same cellular mutations that they demonstrate.

This publication is a summary of the book that addresses the controversies related to the origins of cancer. The chapters included provides solutions to cancer management and prevention. In addition, it comprises transcripts of the author's talks and interviews. The author supports his stance with case studies, statistics, well-known research and researchers, and a critical assessment of current cancer theories. The author pinpoints that cancer is primarily a metabolic disease requiring metabolic solutions for its management and prevention. As many cancer scholars know, cancer has long been considered a genetic disease characterized by countless mutations that drive the disease's progression. Recent evidence indicates that the dysregulated metabolism in cancer cells is more than a hallmark of cancer but may be the underlying cause of the tumor. One of the main ideas of this summary is as each individual is a unique metabolic entity, the personalization of the metabolic approach as a broad-based cancer treatment requires fine-tuning to harmonize the therapy to an individual's unique physiology. I give it four stars out of five.
