Can We Starve Cancer Cells Using the Ketogenic Diet, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, and Resistance Training?

Can We Starve Cancer Cells Using the Ketogenic Diet, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, and Resistance Training?

This episode is brought to you by Bon Charge and Cowboy Colostrum. For decades, we’ve been told that cancer is mostly a genetic disease—something determined by fate or random mutations. But what if that’s only part of the story? What if, instead, cancer is deeply tied to how our cells produce and use energy? ​​Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, we’re revisiting one of our most talked-about moments with Dr. Dominic D’Agostino. He shares how and why the ketogenic diet can be therapeutic for cancer, why maintaining optimal blood glucose levels is essential before using hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and how exercise and lean muscle mass play a powerful role in both prevention and treatment. Dr. Dominic D’Agostino is an Assistant Professor at the University of South Florida College of Medicine, Molecular Pharmacology & Physiology, where he develops and tests metabolic therapies, including alternative energy substrates and ketogenic agents for neurological disorders, cancer, and wound healing. While studying the effects of gases on the brains of Navy SEAL divers, he developed an approach for metabolically starving cancer cells through diet and compressed oxygen, replacing chemotherapy, surgery, or radiation. In this episode, Dhru and Dr. D’Agostino dive into: Why a ketogenic diet can be therapeutic (2:21) Lowering blood glucose to the optimal range (13:32) Exploring the potential role of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in cancer care (15:44) The role of exercise and muscle in cancer prevention (20:01) Final thoughts and takeaways (23:18) Also mentioned: Full episode with Dominic D'Agostino Try This: How Exercise Helps Fight Cancer This episode is brought to you by Bon Charge and Cowboy Colostrum.
