=== Cancer Patients on Keto (02:24) ===

[00:00:00]  And what happened was years ago, I started having so many people come to see me with advanced cancers that were only giving weeks to months to live to a year or so.
[00:00:09]  And there was no answer for these people.
[00:00:11]  They'd given up on them.
[00:00:12]  They couldn't give them any more chemo.
[00:00:14]  Their radiation was maxed out.
[00:00:15]  No more surgeries.
[00:00:16]  And these people came to me and said, Dr. Cober, what I do?
[00:00:19]  So I started studying, and I took a fellowship in integrative cancer care.
[00:00:24]  And I found that the ketogenic diet is one of the best things you can do for cancer patients because, according to a major researcher, Dr. Thomas Siegfried, this literally turns off most of the fuel supply for cancer.
[00:00:39]  You see, cancers are sugar feeders.
[00:00:42]  And so we shifted their metabolism from burning sugar to burning fat.
[00:00:45]  And all of a sudden, we took away the main fuel supply for cancer.
[00:00:48]  And these advanced cancer patients started living longer.
[00:00:51]  Some actually went into remission.
[00:00:53]  We started treating advanced cancers like a chronic disease.
[00:00:56]  After doing this for years, I saw something amazing.
[00:00:59]  I saw that type 2 diabetics, their blood sugar started normalizing.
[00:01:03]  They got off their diabetic medication.
[00:01:05]  I saw that they started losing all that belly fat.
[00:01:07]  Now, I was giving these patients like 10 tablespoons of fat a day in the form of grass-fed butter, coconut oil, olive oil, avocado oil, nuts and seeds, and nut butters.
[00:01:18]  And we prepared their meals, we monitored them closely, and then I saw all these amazing other benefits, especially weight loss.
[00:01:25]  I started my patients with type 2 diabetes with obesity, and they started literally targeting the belly fat, started burning first.
[00:01:33]  And so one thing I saw that was absolutely amazing, their appetite was turned off.
[00:01:37]  And here's what was happening.
[00:01:38]  For most people, the majority, 99% of people are burning sugar as their fuel.
[00:01:43]  Sugar, carbs, starches, they're all the same.
[00:01:46]  They're like white rice, brown rice, sweet potatoes, even though they're healthier than baked potatoes.
[00:01:51]  It still breaks down to sugar.
[00:01:53]  And so when you're eating a lot of that, you're burning sugar.
[00:01:56]  So what happens?
[00:01:56]  Insulin spikes, and then it goes down after three or four hours, then it unleashes a ravenous appetite.
[00:02:02]  Now with fats, fats stay in your system and you stay full for six to eight hours.
[00:02:07]  It takes a whole lot longer to break them down.

=== The Keto Solution (01:13) ===

[00:02:09]  Then when you go into the keto zone, all of a sudden you're in a zone that literally suppresses appetite when you're in the keto zone.
[00:02:18]  Well one thing, one thing that this seminar, at this seminar, this doctor said to Don, which I thought was really powerful.
[00:02:25]  Don asked him, he said, what is the number one thing for a cancer patient?
[00:02:32]  What is the number one thing if your family member had cancer, what is the one thing you would have them do?
[00:02:40]  And his answer to Don, this is a major, major answer.
[00:02:43]  This was one of the major cancer researchers.
[00:02:45]  This was like 10, 15 years ago.
[00:02:47]  Yeah.
[00:02:48]  Somewhere like that.
[00:02:48]  He said, I would make them do the keto diet.
[00:02:52]  The keto diet.
[00:02:54]  Ketogenic diet.
[00:02:55]  Ketogenic diet.
[00:02:56]  He goes, but Doc, they won't stay on it.
[00:02:59]  He goes, it becomes too hard for them.
[00:03:01]  Now, that's what Don heard.
[00:03:03]  He heard that it's going to be too hard.
[00:03:05]  If it's too hard to do, then people won't do it.
[00:03:09]  But you don't give up.
[00:03:10]  No.
[00:03:11]  He kept praying, testing this, testing that.
[00:03:14]  So what this is, is this is a modified ketogenic diet.
[00:03:19]  But he has made it so that you can do it and literally live it.
