Dr. Seyfried

Postby beach sunrise » Sat Feb 22, 2025 6:39 pm

I had been studying Dr. Seyfried for a few years and decided this morning to email him. I had so many notes and questions compiled over the years. I toned it down to what was the absolute most important to me as not to write a mini novel lol.
I am hoping he writes back soon with info and advice.
If he does I will share his expert opinion here.
Fingers crossed he replies!

I've also read or watched interviews about his research. It's very intriguing but I also had questions. Thank you for taking the next step and generously sharing what you learn. If you can establish a dialogue with him and it's not inconvenient or uncomfortable, would you ask him a question? If I understand correctly, one of the criticisms of and cautions about keto-for-cancer is that while it does have good results initially, cancer cells are very smart and adaptable. Theoretically, the argument goes, if you deprive them of carbs/glucose long enough, they will figure out how to use protein and then your keto diet will be feeding your cancer. I would love to hear his thoughts.

Sending my strongest vibes for a great scan!

Very good question on keto! In my notes for you.
I am also going to contact Dr. Whiteside for more details on personalized peptide therapy.
Just getting info collected to put in my back pocket or maybe utilize now.
