This "protocol" is an attempt to address some of the points raised in this post (Theory of Cancer - limit the consequences of glycolysis & help restore the oxygen and carbon dioxide deprivation).
- Vitamin C (*) 200-400 mg 🛈 BID, 2 grams of Bicarbonate 🛈 BID (2 hours after VitC), 20 mg of Zinc BID, and 400 mg of Magnesium (*) BID for 5 consecutive days, 1 hour after lunch and dinner.
- Melatonin 2-3mg 🛈 Niacin (*) (but not niacinamide) 3 x 40mg, and 1 Aloe Vera (barbadensis) softgel for 5 consecutive days (niacin after a meal, melatonin, and aloe 10 to 20 minutes before sleep).
- Nigella Sativa 🛈 , Curcumin 🛈 , and Rosemary 🛈 for 5 consecutive days.
- Berberine 400mg 🛈, Trace Mineral drops, and L-ornithine 200-500mg, each day for 5 consecutive days.
- 100 mcg of Methylene Blue or 50 mcg LeucoMethylene Blue/DHA 🛈 (*) and 10 to 100 mg lipoic acid 🛈 for 5 consecutive days, in the evening.
- 5 days REST. Repeat.
Reasoning
Melatonin: inhibit HIF-1α (*), enhance apoptosis, and reverse the Warburg effect.
Niacin: inhibit HIF-1α, HDACi.
Aloe Vera: synergistic with Melatonin.
Vitamin C: inhibit HIF-1α
Bicarbonate: increase CO2, reduce lactic acid.
Magnesium: works in synergy with vitamin C and bicarbonate.
Zinc: inhibit HIF-1α
Methylene Blue: increase O2 delivery to tissues.
Lipoic acid: reduce lactic acid, synergistic with Methylene Blue.
Curcumin: anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer.
Nigella Sativa: synergistic with Curcumin, inhibit HIF-1α.
Rosemary: synergy with Curcumin, carbonic anhydrase inhibition.
L-ornithine: reduce ammonia. Substitute/alternate with: Taurine, Citrulline (watermelon), L-alanine, Ceylon Cinnamon, and more.
Trace Mineral drops: rebalance mineral profile.
(*) HIF1α inhibition: HIF-1α stimulates glycolytic gene expression. Specifically, HIF-1α activates the expression of genes encoding enzymes such as hexokinase, phosphofructokinase-1, and pyruvate kinase. In addition, HIF-1α also activates the expression of genes involved in glucose uptake, such as GLUT-1 and GLUT-4.
(*) If you have high histamine issues I wouldn't use Methylene blue right away or start at an even lower dose (1 drop of the solution as described below) or start on the 2nd cycle of the protocol.
16 1% MB drops in 30ml of water dissolving approx 1 gram of ascorbic acid will make an MB solution turn almost colorless and make LeucoMethylene Blue + DHA (Dehydroascorbic acid, the oxidized form of ascorbic acid). That's 8mg MB in a 30ml bottle, and each full dropper is approx 0,5mg (500mcg) Methylene Blue, or about 12.5mcg per drop, or 50 mcg every 4 drops.
Foods like cheese, chocolate, or wine are best avoided a few hours before or after (leuco)MB as these contain potent phytochemicals that can further inhibit aromatase (MB is a very potent aromatase inhibitor).
(*) If this amount of magnesium is too hard on your stomach mix it with some milk. If you use mg chloride crystals, dissolve in spring water, not tap water. You could make some concentrated Mg chloride drops and then add a few drops to orange juice.
(*) Start with 20mg of niacin and up-titrate to 40mg. Niacin causes flushing of the skin, it usually goes away in 1–2 hours.
BID = twice a day
