Targeting the Mitochondrial-Stem Cell Connection in Cancer Treatment: A Hybrid Orthomolecular Protocol

This review article introduces the mitochondrial-stem cell connection (MSCC) theory, suggesting that cancer originates from chronic oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) dysfunction in stem cells, leading to the formation of cancer stem cells (CSCs). The proposed hybrid orthomolecular protocol integrates orthomolecules (e.g., vitamins C and D, zinc), repurposed drugs (e.g., ivermectin, benzimidazoles),

L-carnitine ameliorated fasting-induced fatigue, hunger, and metabolic abnormalities in patients with metabolic syndrome: a randomized controlled study

This randomized controlled trial examined the effects of intravenous L-carnitine supplementation on fasting-induced fatigue, hunger, and metabolic abnormalities in patients with metabolic syndrome. Participants receiving 4 g/day of intravenous L-carnitine experienced significantly greater weight loss (-4.6 ± 0.9 kg vs. -3.2 ± 1.1 kg, P = 0.03), reductions in waist
