The oncological journey

Let me take you back to a young Pål when I was only a child interspersed with a little youth, with a desire for responsibility and knowledge, where everything should be tried, everything should be learned, were my form of entertainment, when I was not busy with playing, was to watch the grass grow or study sand formations in the c-moment of a small stream.

To me, what I saw seemed deeper and more subtle than the obvious and conscious lie in which most definitions incorporate consciousness, that one is aware of one's actions, as a criterion for it to be defined as "lie". As I will explain, the concept of "lie" was in a context where everything is true, something that seemed confusing until everything fell into place. I was also aware that there were those who reacted wit...

To understand why the carnivorous diet is so effective against cancer, one must understand the role of mitochondria in - not only energy production, but also thereby - retrograde signaling to the nucleus that encodes the production of new organelles better adapted to, for example, either oxidative phosphorylation (ATP production in the electron transport chain) or substrate phosphorylation (fermentation in the cytosol) which is one of the changes a cell undergoes to become a cancer cell, based on the 6 characteristics that define malignant cancer cells (Hanahan / Weinberg); 1) autonomous production of growth signals. 2) insensitivity to growth-inhibitory signals 3) ability to avoid apoptosis (programmed cell death) 4) seemingly unlimited replication capability 5) persistent angiogenesis / vascularity (formation of new blood vessels) 6) ability to invade tissues. All these criteria can be seen in connection with chronic inflammation triggered by various biochemical reactions in differen...
