Malaena Medford

A bright young person I found on the Internet. She has eidetic memory - which makes it very hard for someone to 'out fact' her. ;)

On Various Subjects

• Calories Don't Matter
  Why counting calories is a pointless exercise
  
• Cancer
  "The reason that acidity is seen as an issue is because while healthy cells get the majority of their energy from oxygen respiration, cancerous cells tend to inefficiently use glucose at a higher rate than healthy cells. This consumption of glucose (a process called glycolysis) results in acidic waste products, and consequently a higher acidity around cells which use this mechanism. This increased reliance of cancer cells on glucose even when there’s enough oxygen is known as the Warburg effect." ~Ergo, cancer causes the acidic environment around it through glycolysis, the fermentation of glucose in the cell. That is explained earlier in the video.
