Dr. Weeks’ Comment: Here (finally!) is some research accomplished in 2009 which supports the clinical practice of IPT which was called quackery in 1940. It demonstrates that the IGF-1 receptor is the back door, unguarded, which we can use to bring chemo drugs preferentially into the cancer cell. Elegant research in 2009; stupendous clinical work [...]

Dr. Weeks’ Comment: why not use a simple process which primes the cancer cells to be 10,000 times more vulnerable to chemo?
Seriously!
This protocol is 50+ years old and still being ignored.
Read carefully.

Insulin Potentation Therapy – Treatment at a Glance
By Dr. Steven Ayre
Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT) manipulates the mechanisms of malignancy to therapeutic advantage by employing insulin as a biologic response modifier of cancer cells’ endogenous molecular biology.

Dr. Weeks’ Comment: Any oncologist will tell you that while the PSA (prostate specific antigen test) is meaningless and often fatally misleading, it is the only available test for monitoring prostate cancer risk and prognosis and so…. we use it!

Dr. Weeks’ Comment: I bet, dear reader, that your level of vitamin D is dangerously low. I also bet that your doctor won’ think to test your level (“25-OH D3″ is the test). Again, if the solution isn’t a profitable (patentable) drug, then the idea doesn’t get taught to doctors by the omnipresent drug reps. [...]

Dr. Weeks Comment: Breast MRI, ultrasound, thermography – there are a group of options to consider when you want to screen for breast cancer.
