Episode 5: Eating Away at Cancer
and all the cells have a double fatty acid layer around every single cell in
your body. And it’s extremely key. It’s called the cell membrane. It’s
extremely key for hormonal responses, extremely key for just having
good healthy hormone function, good healthy neurological function in
your system. So the communication process between cells is dependent
upon this outer ring of fat. And so we need the fats to help replace
those. Also, on top of that, a low fat diet is going to prioritize
carbohydrate. And a carbohydrate breaks down into sugar.
And sugar—when your blood sugar is all over the place that really
creates a breeding ground for opportunistic infections, for cancer growth
like we’re going to talk about later, for all different types of issues. And
so utilizing good fats as your primary energy source helps your body
produce something called ketones and there’s a ketogenic diet and
those ketones actually are a preferred fuel for your body and especially
when it becomes, what we call, keto adapted or fat adapted, where your
body just becomes so good it preferentially uses these fatty acids, these
ketone bodies, your blood sugar stays extremely stable. And that
reduces inflammatory processes in your body. It helps you have better
mental/emotional balance so you think more clearly, have better
memory, your—everything in your life really improves because your
sugar is stable. You don’t have these bumps, these ups and downs, the
insulin surges. And so your emotions, again, are going to be more
balanced, everything is going to be more balanced. Your body’s going to
be able to handle and tolerate stress more effectively.
And really the hallmark of successful aging is being able to adapt
effectively to stress. And so I think a high, good fat diet is really, really
key for that. And so with these low fat diets they really don’t discriminate
between good fats and bad fats. it’s just take all the fats out. They really
typically don’t discriminate between types of carbohydrates, although
sometimes they’ll tell you go low glycemic using a lot of whole grains,
things like that. Other people choose the high protein diets. But really
protein and the carbohydrates both break down into sugar in your
system and that stored sugar will stimulate higher levels of inflammation
in your body. And what we’re trying to do is really control inflammation.
And a high good fat diet really helps with that.
Ty: Inflammation is the key
Dr. David Jockers: Yeah
Ty: isn’t it As far as many disease processes they start with
inflammation in the cells, don’t they
