flourine increases tumor cell growth; supports the observation that cancer deaths are higher in cities with flouridated water

Perillyl alcohol inhibits cancer growth and increases cell death in colon, breast, and liver cancer

Omega-3 reduce inflammation, inhibit tumor growth, inhibit angiogenesis, induce cancer cell death, and inhibit estrogen signaling

Nutritional supplements prove to be extremely safe

Understand: surgery is surgery.  The death rate from weight loss surgeries is higher than reported as this large study shows.  Another thought: what are the long-term health implications.  I can tell you from the clients that I see, it is not good

Prescription medications are one of the leading causes of death today.

Study reviews the studies of IV vitamin C and cancer.  The authors discuss the mechanism of action of the high dose vitamin C.  The authors are correct in their conclusion that a large body of evidence is lacking and that the majority are case study.  However, to even discount these in the face of the safety and the reduction in side effects associated with chemotherapy by IV vitamin C would be unacceptable. To delay recommendation due to a full lack of understanding would be unacceptable as well.   No deaths have been reported due to IV vitamin C.  Contrast this with chemotherapy.  However, case studies have pointed to IV vitamin C as a positive tool to attach cancer.  

Alzheimer's model finds that amyloid-beta supresses vitamin D receptor.  This study found that vitamin D therapy protected neurons by up regulating vitamin D receptors.  This prevented cytotoxicity and cell death.

Great review by Morgentaler of Testosterone and CVD.  He highlights the significant flaws in the JAMA and the NEJM articles of Testosterone therapy risks.  Morgentaler highlights the significant evidence that points to low T and increased risk of CVD. On contention I have, is Morgantaler seems to flip aside the massive uptick of Testosterone use in the US as compared to other countries.  The evidence definitely points to Testosterone therapy as being safe in those with low T, but there is definitely a problem of significant Testosterone doping that is taking place as well.

IV vitamin C induces cell death of prostate cancer cell lines via H2O2, which is not new, but what is new is the ascorbate-insensitive cell line.

IV vitamin C and IV vitamin C only can deliver levels to tumor cells that induce formation of H2O2 that then induces cell death.

low T is associated with increased risk of CV death.  Additionally, Testosterone therapy shown to improve MetS.

Selenium (Se) deficiency is associated with increased oxidative stress.  Selenium is a cofactor necessary for glutathione perioxidase.  Selenium reduced 8-OHdG, promoted cell growth inhibition and cell death pointing to significant Cancer implications.

men with Testosterone levels in the middle quintiles had the lowest risk of death compared to low and high quintile levels.  

low copper associated with cardiac disease--particularly sudden death.

Calorie restriction and protein restriction inhibit IGF-1, insulin, AkT, PI3K, and mTOR. In addition, those with protein intake >20%, compared to 10%, was associated with a 4 fold increase in cancer death risk and a 75% increase in overall mortality. Protein restriction inhibits tumor growth, associated with a 30-70% reduction in IGF-1, reduced the accumulation of oxidized proteins. The restriction of tryptophan alone reduced inflammation.

Ferritin is increased as a byproduct of the inflammation, which studies suggest, are the result of TAMs. Some ferritin is also likely the result of release from cell death. L-ferritin is the most prevalent in cancer. Elevated ferritin is associated with a poor prognosis in many cancers. It also correlates with CRP, WBC in this study. 1 mg/ml of serum ferritin correlates to 8mg of stored Fe.

Only abstract available here, but EDTA chelation found to reduce risk of death, reinfarction, stroke, hospitalization, angina in individuals with diabetes and prior MI from 38% to 25%.

IV vitamin C and K3 induces cancer cell death through production of H2O2 in catalase deficient cancer cells.  Pretreament shown to potentiate traditional chemotherapy.

A cancer registry is the cancer cases which are registered in a population or specific country. In whole world mortality rate due to cancer is 20%. In USA cancer is the second largest disease of causing death after heart disease. Recently in 2016 estimated that 595,690 people die from this disease according to cancer statistics of National Cancer Institute USA.
