Thanks for your input. You have posted some interesting and valuable information. However, I am not convinced that low oxygen is a primary cause of cancer. Cancer cells typically have low oxygen because they no longer take in and utilize oxygen after they revert to a more primitive glucose-based form of respiration. I believe they do so as a result in changes in the signalling from mitochondria, most often as a result of exposure to toxins - especially prolonged exposure to toxins in combination with unhealthy cellular terrain.

Warburg won a Nobel Prize for discovering that cancer cells had low oxygen levels. Initially, he postulated that cancer might be reversed by supplying increased oxygen to the cancer cells, but when his attempts failed he abandoned his hypothesis. His discovery that low oxygen levels were a marker for cancer cells, as well a glucose fermentation, were nevertheless prize worthy. Sadly, today the internet and elsewhere are filled with misleading information, often to hype products, about Warburg's discovery - usually wrongly saying that Warburg discovered that low oxygen caused cancer and sometimes also wrongly shat he discovered that acidid pH caused cancer.

Both low oxygen and acidic pH are caused by the cancer process and not vice-versa.
