Will LiveO2 support Cancer care?

This is a fre­quent ques­tion — which we can­not answer. See the LiveO2 Intend­ed Use State­ment.

If you feel this arti­cle con­sti­tutes a Med­ical Claim. Please fill out our Med­ical Claim Report form.

Mak­ing any asser­tion that LiveO2 would help a par­tic­u­lar med­ical con­di­tion would con­sti­tute a med­ical claim. This is not appro­pri­ate because LiveO2 is not mar­ket­ed as a med­ical device. LiveO2 is not intend­ed to treat, cure, mit­i­gate, or pre­vent any med­ical condition.

Here are a series of ques­tions, fol­lowed by third-par­ty research which may help you devel­op an informed opin­ion about the rela­tion­ship between oxy­gen and health sup­port with can­cer. This infor­ma­tion is intend­ed for edu­ca­tion­al pur­pos­es only.

Does oxygen kill cancer?

Sim­ply stat­ed — No. 

Otto War­burg received the Nobel Prize in 1931 for dis­cov­er­ing that can­cer occurs in a low-oxy­gen envi­ron­ment. Click here to read his Nobel Prize Lecture.

Does “Cancer Hate Oxygen”?

Otto War­burg exhaus­tive­ly test­ed the injec­tion of oxy­gen into tumors. He found that oxy­gen had no cura­tive effect on tumor cells. If the admin­is­tra­tion of oxy­gen to can­cer killed can­cer — cur­ing can­cer would be as triv­ial as inject­ing oxy­gen into tumors. 

Any expert who says “Can­cer Hates Oxy­gen” mis­un­der­stands War­burg’s research. It is unwise to trust any­one who asserts this. 

War­burg proved that can­cer, once formed, is not affect­ed, let alone cured by oxygen. 

The state­ment that “Can­cer Hates Oxy­gen” is patent­ly false. 

War­burg Research in a nut­shell concluded:

  • That oxy­gen has no appar­ent effect on can­cer or tumor cells because these cells have evolved not to use oxygen. 
  • Long-term oxy­gen defi­cien­cy to cells pro­motes muta­tions toward cancer. 

What research shows that oxygen in healthy tissue near cancer inhibits progression?

It is nat­ur­al to con­clude that oxy­gen lev­els in the tis­sue sur­round­ing lesions sup­port vital­i­ty and immune func­tion in sur­round­ing tissue.

This arti­cle cites how hyper­bar­ic ther­a­py retards metas­ta­sis and pro­gres­sion in head and neck can­cers and enables near­by tis­sue injured by radi­a­tion treat­ment to remain more healthy.

Do therapies that increase the oxygen level in the body support health? 

War­burg’s Nobel Prize clear­ly iden­ti­fied chron­ic hypox­ia, low long-term tis­sue low oxy­gen lev­els, as the enabling cir­cum­stance for can­cer formation. 

Many stud­ies show that low oxy­gen, hypox­ia, pro­motes can­cer growth and metastasis:

This search clear­ly illus­trates that low oxy­gen pro­motes the devel­op­ment, growth, and spread of cancer. 

While the absence of oxy­gen clear­ly pro­motes can­cer, a sur­plus of oxy­gen does not cure it. 

Does LiveO2 support conventional Cancer Treatment? 

Man­fred von Ardenne showed that con­ven­tion­al can­cer treat­ments, Radi­a­tion, Chemother­a­py, and Surgery, dra­mat­i­cal­ly injure the body. The fol­low­ing graphs show the loss of oxy­gen sta­tus as a result of these treatments. 

If you’re not into graphs… All can­cer treat­ments bad­ly dam­age the body’s ener­gy pro­duc­tion. They reduce ener­gy to about 50% of nor­mal. These graphs repro­duced from “Oxy­gen Mul­ti­step Ther­a­py”, Buy on Ama­zon, view on Google Books, show how can­cer ther­a­pies, Chemother­a­py, Radi­a­tion, and Surgery harm the body’s ener­gy production.

The dis­tance between the upper and low­er lines express­es the amount of oxy­gen used by the body — the clos­er the lines are to each oth­er, the less ener­gy the body makes, and the worse the ener­gy loss. This ener­gy loss is a pri­ma­ry side effect of con­ven­tion­al can­cer treatments.

Graph Sum­maries:

  • Chemother­a­py: 47% loss pro­gres­sive over 50 days — not restored dur­ing the exper­i­ment period;
  • Radi­a­tion: 45% loss, drops after each treat­ment — not restored dur­ing the experiment; 
  • Surgery: 50% loss imme­di­ate­ly — restored after 37 days.

The ener­gy loss severe­ly inhibits the immune sys­tem’s per­for­mance. This ener­gy loss is func­tion­al­ly restorable.

Benefit Explained

This graph shows the ener­gy pro­duc­tion cycle dur­ing influen­za for a 75-year-old male using the 15-minute fast pro­ce­dure for an indi­vid­ual with influen­za. Oxy­gen Mul­ti­step Ther­a­py is the pre­de­ces­sor to LiveO2 Adap­tive Contrast.

Graph Sum­ma­ry:

  • 4 days of ener­gy degra­da­tion per onset of influen­za where ener­gy pro­gres­sive­ly decreas­es to 50% of nor­mal dur­ing onset — sim­i­lar to stress caused by can­cer treatments;
  • 1 day of steady-state ill­ness tol­er­a­tion to estab­lish base­line ener­gy lev­el with influen­za and flu symptoms;
  • 15 min­utes of OMST train­ing where ener­gy is instant­ly restored to ~115% high­er than nor­mal ener­gy production;
  • 16 days where ener­gy pro­duc­tion pro­gres­sive­ly increas­es to 147% of normal

This author’s opin­ion is that sus­tained sur­plus ener­gy is used by the immune sys­tem to accel­er­ate recovery.
