Ketosis and Brain Cancer, Andrew Scarborough

YouTube Video

Cancer has been a leading cause of death in the western world for some time now, but what is the best nutritional regime to address it? Andrew Scarborough was faced with massive seizures and migraines, followed by a belated diagnosis of Grade III Anaplastic Astrocytoma. This is a most serious form of brain cancer, invariably fatal. He researched extensively and learned that chemotherapy would do little or nothing for the genetic form of his disease. His oncologist admitted as much when confronted with the data. Thus Andrew was facing into a chemical regime which would stress his body, whilst offering no real hope of remission. But Andrew was determined not to accept this inevitability; he was going to leverage his research from a Masters in Nutrition, and his ability to decode published scientific work from the best in the field. He was going to take on the fight for his own life. He would attack a metabolic disease with a carefully aimed metabolic weapon. What would be the best weapon available for a human with invasive brain cancer? Well, a highly specialised form of ketogenic nutrition would make a lot of sense. It being based on the very substances that drove the evolution of our extraordinary human brains. Myself and Dr. Jeffry Gerber had the privilege of meeting Andrew in London recently. We captured insights around his brave and compelling journey. Rarely has one man’s application of scientific research been so focused and so inspiring.
