    Cancer "paradox": Testosterone Treats Prostate Cancer

    Not really a surprise to anybody following Peat, but maybe we can finally start seeing some Peat-friendly treatments for cancer such as drugs for increasing rather than decreasing testosterone in elderly men. http://news.sciencemag.org/health/2015/ ... ate-tumors "...Testosterone may be the...

    A Common Vegetable Component Promotes Cancer

    Ray has written about agglutinin as being one of the toxins found in vegetables: http://raypeat.com/articles/articles/vegetables.shtml "...The toxins of plants include phenols, tannins, lectins/agglutinins, and trypsin-inhibitors, besides innumerable more specific metabolic inhibitors...

    Abnormal tryptophan metabolism implicated in breast cancer

    The kynurenine pathway of tryptophan metabolism is implicated in other diseases such as HIV, MS, Lupus, etc. http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/ ... 121014.php

    Iron Deficiency May Protect Against Malaria, TB And Cancer

    I was just doing a little Googlefu about iron stores since my iron binding capacity is really high, trying to decide if I should supplement or not. I keep thinking I probably should not, especially if I happen to actually be sick. Then I ran across this: Iron deficiency, even mild anemia, may...

    For Many Cancers Early Diagnosis Can Actually Be Deadly

    A great article in line with one of Ray's latest interviews on KMUD, in which he says that modern medicine needs to apply the prostate cancer approach of "leaving it alone" to many other cancers as well. Given the current state of medicine of not being able to successfully cure most cancers, I...

    Vitamin B6 For All Inflammatory Conditions And Cancer

    It looks like there is a strong push to patent derivatives of P5P for treatment of virtually all types of inflammatory conditions, and prevention of cancer. P5P even has anti-depressant and anti-seizure activities. The mechanism of action is antagonism of the P2X "receptors" and according to the...

    No PUFA No Cancer? Not Backed By Study Ray Cites

    http://peatarian.com/49034/critical-rev ... t-citation What do you think of it? I'm also a native German speaker and read the study now several times and indeed Ray's claim about fat-free diets preventing "spontaneous development of cancer" (which he clearly bases on this study from 1927) seems...

    Decline In Mitochondrial Function Is What Triggers Cancer

    According to this study, the process of mitchondrial function decline, as seen in aging, creates a state of chronic hypoxia by inducing HIF-1 (which also happens to powerfully promote cancer). In fact, the following quote form the study reads like it could have been written by Ray Peat himself...

    Cancer Theorized Once Again As Metabolic Disease

    Ray has written about how cancer is a primordial cellular state of uninhibited division, driven by deficient oxygen and respiration. It looks like mainstream science is finally warming up to the idea to the point that this article even suggests cancer can be treated with oxygen. The treatment...

    Soy has negative effect on breast cancer patients

    Ray has written about the powerful estrogenic effects of soy, so this study does not surprise me but it is the first one I see that draws a conclusion that soy may be contra-indicated for breast cancer. So far all other soy studies claimed that it either prevented cancer or helped survival. A...

    Arginine Depletion May Be A Viable Approach For Cancer

    Ray is not a big fan of certain amino acids like arginine due to its role as a nitric oxide (NO) precursor. I posted a study several weeks ago showing that supplemental arginine greatly boosted tumor growth while supplemental glycine halted it. This latest study seems to take the arginine...

    Biggest Study So Far Shows Aspirin Reduces Any Cancer Risk

    Nothing new, but the evidence from larger and larger trials continues to pile on. Unfortunately, these are all observational studies and focus on prevention and mortality. I don't know of any large trials for treating cancer with aspirin, and the few small ones that exist use very low dosages...

    Methylation Tied To Cancer (again)

    Ray has written about this and I have also posted studies in the past. I have noticed that in the last couple of years the message has been getting stronger - i.e. methylation is a big factor in cancer. Hopefully, the field will move away from the completely genetic explanation of cancer as more...

    Nsaid (aspirin) May Prevent Cancer Cachexia (wasting)

    Another study linking chronic inflammation to cancer and its signature muscle wasting condition known as cachexia. Yet another piece of the puzzle in how aspirin prevents and maybe even treats cancer. This study is also interesting b/c it found that that the current medical opinion vilifying fat...

    "Some" Aggressive Cancers May Be Treatable By NSAID

    I find it odd that the article says "some" cancers even though JAK is upregulated in virtually all cancers. Also, instead of listing some common non-prescription drugs (NSAID) that are known JAK inhibitors they talk about proprietary drugs used for rheumatoid arthritis...
