🔥Dr. Otto Warburg won the Nobel Prize in 1931 for discovering that cancer cells don’t use oxygen properly. They switch to fermentation—even when oxygen is present. That’s now known as the Warburg Effect. Yet most cancer treatments today completely ignore this. 🔬 The Warburg Effect is a hallmark of tumor metabolism. → (Vander Heiden et al., Science, 2009) → Cancer cells rely on glucose and ferment it instead of using oxygen-based energy. 🔬 Targeting cellular metabolism may improve outcomes. →

🔥Dr. Otto Warburg’s Nobel Prize–winning discovery revealed that cancer cells thrive through anaerobic glycolysis—fermenting glucose instead of using oxygen. This insight gave rise to the metabolic theory of cancer, now supported by researchers like Dr. Thomas Seyfried, who says: “Cancer is a mitochondrial metabolic disease.” ✅ Warburg Effect: Vander Heiden et al., 2009 – Science ✅ Metabolic Therapy: Seyfried et al., 2014 – Frontiers in Cell Dev Bio ✅ Oxygenation & Cancer: Chen et al., 2020 – Re

The Warburg Effect Observed in oncology, reveals that cancer cells differ from normal cells in their energy production. Unlike regular cells, cancer cells rely on a less efficient process called "aerobic glycolysis." This involves high glucose uptake, glycolysis, and lactic acid fermentation in the cytosol instead of the mitochondria, even when oxygen is plentiful. 🧪💥 . @butterfueled .

🔥In 1931, Nobel Prize winner Dr. Otto Warburg discovered that cancer cells don’t use oxygen properly—they ferment sugar even when oxygen is available. This is now called the Warburg Effect, and it’s a hallmark of nearly every cancer cell. • Cancer thrives on sugar and poor mitochondrial function → (Vander Heiden et al., Science, 2009) → Tumor cells depend on glucose fermentation for survival. • Targeting metabolism—NOT just genes—is critical → (Seyfried et al., Frontiers in Nutrition, 2014) → T
