Rated as the world's foremost biochemists, Otto Warburg discovery about cancer assumes a lot of significance in the highly polluted environs we live in today. Because the impact of repeated exposure to toxins in air water and food impacts our biological functions at a very elementary level - the cellular activity.
The prognosis of Otto Warburg research on cancer is that our cells start responding differently to high levels of pollution. Instead of breathing oxygen, they start to ferment sugar as a biological defense to thwart pollution. What they essentially do is a primitive form of respiration (sugar fermentation) because they refuse to die to poison, instead multiply and form a protective barrier. When they start doing it, they multiply and build a ‘wall’ which is the beginning of cancer. It is this cancer process itself which causes the body to become increasingly acidic
Otto Warburg 1931 Nobel winning efforts was on mechanism of cell oxidation and identifying the iron-enzyme complex, which catalyzes this process. Dr. Warburg was quoted as stating that, "The root cause of cancer is oxygen deficiency, which creates an acidic state in the human body. Dr Warburg also discovered that cancer cells are anaerobic (do not breathe oxygen) and cannot survive in the presence of high levels of oxygen, as found in an alkaline state."
