IPT For Cancer
Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT) is one of the safest and most innovative approaches to treating cancer. IPT is an alternative cancer treatment that has almost none of the side effects such as nausea, radical hair loss, liver damage, and DNA distortion with standard chemotherapy, so it is appealing to patients who recognize the need for chemotherapy but want to do it in a safer, gentler manner.
IPT vs Traditional Chemotherapy Treatment
One outstanding advantage IPT has over traditional treatment is that a much lower dose of chemotherapeutic drugs are required. IPT more selectively targets cancer cells while affecting relatively few normal cells. Therefore, patients do not suffer the severe side effects that commonly occur with conventional chemotherapy, such as hair loss, vomiting, fatigue and depression. Thus, the quality of a patient’s life is significantly improved in comparison to that of many patients who experienced when undergoing conventional treatment methods.
Mechanism of IPT
Cancer cells derive energy from an unlimited supply of glucose, which they get by secreting their own insulin. They also stimulate their own growth by producing insulin – like growth factors (IGF) these are the mechanisms of malignancy. In effect, IPT kills cancer cells by using the same mechanisms that cancer cells use to kill people.
Insulin, in addition to its ability to help deliver higher – levels of the chemotherapy drugs into the cancer cells, also causes these cells to go into their growth phase where they actually become more vulnerable to the chemotherapy drugs. The cells are hit harder and at a time when they are most vulnerable to the assault, thus maximizing results.
IPT treatment has been reported to Work well for many types of cancers. There are also reports of IPT brining responses and remission to patients with some very difficult cancer, even cancers in late stages. Of course, each patient is evaluated individually, depending upon the type of Cancer, the virulence of the individual cancer cells (their ability to work havoc) and the development stage of the cancer when the patient first comes for treatment.

Benefits of IPT Treatment
IPT is tougher on tumours and cancer cells yet gentle on patients, enabling them to live normal, vital life style while being treated.
Treatment requires only hours per day and can be administered in an outpatient facility.
Treatment costs are significantly less than standard chemotherapy protocols.
