Is Cancer Caused by Insulin Resistance and Inflammation?

The short answer is yes. The science is complex and we are learning more all the time. You can see references for published science on this subject in the Scientific References Section. Lets break it down in ways that are easier to understand.
First, it is important to know that our bodies create the potential for cancer every day when we make food into energy. By now, you have learned from other pages here that blood sugar (glucose) gets turned into fuel inside each cell in our bodies. This fuel gets “burned” inside tiny furnaces called mitochondria in each cell. Think of them as the power plants of each cell.
This conversion of fuel into energy gives off waste products. This is just like the smoke that
goes up the smokestack at a power plant. Your body has ways of eliminating these waste products before they can do damage. One of the components of this routine “smoke” being given off - is called a free radical. 
This is a molecule that is very hungry. It lacks an electron that it needs to be stable. It tries to take one from every other molecule it encounters. When it does take one- that other molecule - usually a protein that makes up another cell- is damaged.

One of the components of this routine “smoke” being given off - is called a free radical. This is a molecule that is very hungry. It lacks an electron that it needs to be stable. It tries to take one from every other molecule it encounters. When it does take one- that other molecule - usually a protein that makes up another cell- is damaged.When the damage is done to the DNA in a cell (that controls how proteins are made), this is called mutation. It is mutated DNA that causes cancers to begin to grow out of control. If it happens in a breast cell- breast cancer begins. If it is in the colon cell- cancer begins to grow there.
Now, remember that these free radicals are being produced all the time by normal energy production. So your body has a way of neutralizing them. It is called the antioxidant network. This is part of your immune system that makes molecules called antioxidants readily available to cancel-out free radicals. They are like “bait” that the free radicals are attracted to. Once a hungry free radical “bites” an antioxidant- it is “hooked” by the antioxidant, made harmless, and easy to eliminate from the body. Your body makes antioxidants out the food you eat- and gets them directly from food.
This is how your body is designed to protect you from the damaging and potentially cancer-causing effects of regular energy production in each cell. Most people do not eat enough of the kinds of food that give them enough antioxidants. Then the twin evils of insulin resistance and inflammation throw this system farther out of balance.
Insulin resistance causes energy production in your cells to slow down due to lack of fuel for the furnaces. This is called mytochondrial insufficiency. This should decrease the rate of free radical production. In fact, insulin resistance creates many more free radicals than your antioxidant network is designed to cope with during normal energy production. Free radicals escape the bait and are never hooked. They only become stable after they do their damage - including to your DNA. This sets the stage for the start of cancer.
Chronic inflammation has your immune system running at full blast all the time. Your antioxidant network is already overwhelmed. There is no reserve capacity to draw on as insulin resistance creates ever more free radicals. The balance is tipped in favor of the free radicals that reign free in your body in growing amounts to do their damage.
Your immune system has back-up functions to identify tiny cancers that get started and to wipe them out. When your immune system is stretched past its limits by chronic inflammation, there are not enough “soldiers” available to do this job. Cancers get a foothold and begin to grow.
We all know about toxic substances and pollution as causes for cancer. This is because those substances both increase free radicals inside you- and add to levels of chronic inflammation as you body attacks them as invaders.
This is a highly simplified view of the complex science of how our bodies both create and destroy cancers. It is useful to help you understand that we have a natural balance between cancer creation and cancer destruction. Insulin Resistance and Chronic Inflammation tip that balance in the favor of cancer creation.
ActuWell Therapeutic Nutrition (ATN) is designed to attack both insulin resistance and chronic inflammation. It increases your ability to resist high glycemic food and drink. It provides full anti-oxidant network support. If your immune system is being defeated- the first thing to do is to start shipping weapons to the good guys! ATN gives you exactly what you need to tip the scales back in the favor of health and balance.
