Cancer is a glutamate problem

  • first understand what glutamate is

Glutamate vs Glutamine:

Glutamine

  • chained with other amino acids into a protein
  • glutamine, in a protein
  • usually is a chewable protein
  • realitvely safe
  • needs to be chewed, solid

Glutamate

  • single or un-bound from other amino acids
  • glutamate, in a liquid
  • can be drank in water, liquid
  • very toxic
  • toxic to nerves caused cell death
    • stroke
    • heart attack
    • memory loss
    • anxiety
    • cannot sleep
  • also called MSG

Forms of liquid or dissolved glutamate

  • soy protein
  • whey protein
  • pea powder
  • protein powders
  • liquid aminos

Compare:

    2 acid ends    1 acid end  
 4 carbon chain  aspartic acid (asp)   methionine (met)
 5 carbon chain  glutamic acid (glu)  arginine (arg)

 

What happens with double ended acids?

  • Liver damage
  • Cancer

Liver damage?

Yes,

  • the liver collects the 'hot' double acids
  • then uses liver enzymes
  • AST is also called SGOT
    • (Serum Glutamate Oxaloacetate Transaminase)
  • AST is made by the liver
  • when very high can indicate cancer in any part of the body
  • AST liver enzyme attempts to rid the body of glutamates
  • cancer cells testing high in glutamates are growing rapidly

High glutamate, Low arginine

  • A retrovirus that mutates amino acid production
  • First described in 2006 as a novel human pathogen
  • The virus changes the genetic production of amino acids
  • The cancer-associated virus mutates the cell to produce glutamine instead of arginine
  • Liver AST elevates to combat high blood circulating glutamate
  • AST over 200 may indicate cancer somewhere in the body
    • In prostate cancer
      • Men with two copies of this mutation, 2.0 times the risk of prostate cancer
      • Men with one copy of this mutation, 1.5 times the risk of prostate cancer.
  • The cancer-associated virus can invade cells anywhere in the body
  • Cancer from this virus is noted when glutamates are very high.

Xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus

Xenotropic murine leukemia virus-related virus (XMRV) is a retrovirus which was first described in 2006 as an apparently novel human pathogen found in tissue samples from men with prostate cancer
