A metabolic theory of cancer shifts attention from nuclear mutations to damaged mitochondria and the glucose and glutamine that fuel tumors.
Mitochondria are the cell's primary energy engines, and chronic damage to their structure can push cells toward ancient fermentation pathways.
Tumor cells rely heavily on glucose and glutamine to fuel an inefficient fermentation process and sustain growth.
The Glucose Ketone Index serves as a quantitative biomarker to help individuals monitor metabolic health and track therapeutic ketosis.
