008: Layman's Guide to the Metabolic Theory of Cancer: Travis Christofferson - a podcast by Ryan Sternagel

Travis Chistofferson is on the show to make sure we understand exactly what the metabolic theory of cancer is and why it is so vitally important in preventing and reversing cancer.  Travis’ book Tripping over the Truth was basically written for the exact purpose of taking Professor Thomas Seyfreid’s (episode 006) book Cancer as a Metabolic Disease which is more of a textbook converting it into something easier for the public to digest and give more of the backstory which is why it’s the very first book I recommend to anyone that really wants to understand cancer and how we got to where we are today.

 

In This Episode:

 

• The metabolic theory of cancer itself and why it’s so important for anyone going through cancer to understand.
• How cancer cells can actually turn back into healthy cells when if their metabolism is able to be corrected or if not how they can be weakened and killed off altogether with this approach. 
• The best dietary strategies and best known therapeutic interventions such as the ketogenic diet and oxidative therapies.
• Travis’s thoughts on the success of approaches such as the Gerson Therapy which are high in sugars and antioxidants.
• The history of modern cancer treatment going back to Otto Warburg who first put this viewpoint out there back in the mid 1900’s and how it is that we’ve managed to get so wrapped up genes and really miss the forest for the trees.
• Epigenetics and how we should look at them in light of the metabolic theory of cancer.

Travis Christofferson is a graduate of the Montana State Honors Program in molecular biology. He received the Nelson Fellowship for "outstanding undergraduate research", and continued graduate research in bioremediation and cancer theory culminating in an M.S. in Material Engineering and Science from the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology.***

 

He is a science writer and the author of the book Tripping Over the Truth: The Metabolic Theory of Cancer. The book offers a historical perspective on the reemerging metabolic theory of cancer -- a theory that contends cancer is precipitated and driven by damage to mitochondria.
