2DG & Keto Diet

Posted on August 4, 2013 by Ren

20130804-153551.jpgJust a quick update. 2-deoxy-d-glucose in combination with the calorie restricted ketogenic diet is taking quite a toll. For the past week I have been feeling severe hypoglycemia style symptoms. I have virtually no energy to do anything. When I add the phoenix tears to this, well you can imagine the state that I have been in.

Still losing weight and reached my all time low of 54.9kg. Even though I do not want to do this, I’ll need to boost my daily protein and calorie consumption. I also need to find the energy to excercise more.

I have still not added phenylbutyrate or galactose to my regime, but plan to do so next week.

About Ren

I have been diagnosed with stage 4, metastatic colorectal cancer in October 2012, 3 days after my 44th birthday. There is no cure, but I am determined to go down the road less travelled to find one. I have setup this blog to document my journey and hopefully help others in the process. My view is that if there is a cure, it does not lie with traditional chemo, but with the immune system. Time will tell.
