Adan Canto's Shocking Death at 42: The Hidden Truth About Appendix Cancer

追加: 2026-05-10

[00:00:01]I was recently emotionally traumatized when a favorite series of mine um highlighted that one of my actors was no longer there. And when I did the research, I realized that he had died. This is a few years ago. I was only recently watching the series. I won't say which one it is. And it's to do with Adam Kanto. And when I thought about it, um, I realized, um, for those people who have seen him in Designated Survivor, in the cleaning lady, um, this is an actor who was exceptionally talented and the fact that I can remember because, um, I usually don't remember all of these things, but the fact that he stood out to me is representative of the fact that this is a great loss in terms of the entertainment and film scene. Now, it made me think about what he died of, which was appendix cancer. It's it's a rare cancer. So, it's not one of those things that you hear about very often.

[00:01:11]It's not something I come across very often. So, I was doing some research around it. But critically, I have access to a lot of data that I've been looking at since 2016 and I was able to get the data showing the trajectory of what's happening say in the UK with appendix cancer. This is the point is that something is not right and we really need to think about what strategies can be used to try and minimize risk. So part of what I'll be doing is that I will also for you be making sure that you reflect on your own gut. And so this is the page, the link is in the description and it's talking about probiotics um because so many people are using it. But what I've realized is that you need to take them at the right time. And what's really interesting if even if you don't want to take the um the course or not the the assessment or the the courses that are here what you must look at is what people have been saying and this is showing you the answers from hundreds of people so far showing their own patterns and this is important for us to reflect on and the principle that I'm saying with regards to what I've learned with uh Adanto is don't underestimate the gut health. So, here are just a few things about appendix cancer just so that you have some insight into it. Um, it's not very common. As you can see here, this is an image of the intestines. So, this represents the small intestine which then goes to the large intestine. This is the ascending colon, transverse colon, descending colon, sigmoid colon, and your appendix is on the right side of your abdomen. And this is where people usually have pain. And we've been thinking that it's not so important. But in truth, it appears that this little organ is a coordinator of immunity in the intestine. So don't underestimate how important it can be. And what he had is one of those malignant tumors of the appendix. You can have different kinds of tumors and they are all generally rare but if they are malignant they can then spread because the symptoms can be so subtle and this is the point that um we have to remember as I said the symptoms are pretty hard to spot because they're quite vague. you know a a bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, sometimes no symptoms at all and it can sometimes be found late or by chance. So this is why if it is malignant, it would then present late and this is the point as to similar to what has happened with melanoma. Melanoma tends to present or people pick it up quite late and this is why it is so serious.

[00:04:22]Now, I'm sure everybody is thinking about the elephant in the room if you've been following me. And I have made no reference to it because I literally have no information. This is a very private situation. The family uh don't particularly want to talk about what is going on in terms of even his health.

[00:04:45]And so I don't know what that is but it is the question that people would be asking about in terms of this kind of pattern. Now some people will say appendix cancer is rare and there is no relevance with regards to the pandemic and issues around the pandemic. I would say that that is a flawed assumption.

[00:05:11]You don't know. What we do know or what I know which I'm going to share with you is that something is not right. Now the data I'm sharing now nobody knows even I didn't really know this. When I say nobody knows very few people are talking about it because they'd have to go looking for it. So what I want to do is share with you what exactly has happened in terms of appendix cancer in the UK over the past 9 years. And this will then give you an idea as to why I think this is relevant. So when we look at C18.1 malignant neoplasm of the appendix and this is an ICD code international classification of disease. So it's very specific for a malignant neoplasm and you can see when in terms of uh consultant episodes finished consultant episodes it gives you an idea. You can see that prior to the pandemic here there was a rise leveled off in 2018 2019 into 2020.

[00:06:20]Now we know that it all goes down in 202021 around the pandemic because there was lockdown and so on. However, then in 2021 222, you could consider that the rebound. And so if there was a trajectory here, that would probably be about maybe a rebound level that you would see. But what then happened beyond that is this.

[00:06:45]This does not look normal to me. And you can see the line, the trajectory line here has changed. So this is important to to note that this line here is different in terms of where it is and what is happening.

[00:07:02]That's relevant. Now this is what I mean when I say that the data indicates something is not right. And this is why when I think about the appendix cancer even though it is rare you know it is something that we shouldn't necessarily be ignoring. Some other characteristics about it. It can become serious, spreads quietly within the abdomen.

[00:07:28]Some of them produce mucus. These can be some of the benign ones. But if it is one of the malignant ones, these will then spread. And again, I mentioned the point that a lot of people get confused about with regards to turbo cancer. And again, this is a concept that I'm very careful about and I'll explain again so in case you're hearing it for the first time, you understand my position. Turbo cancer means or indicates or infers that this is a cancer that has grown much more quickly than it should.

[00:08:07]I don't think this is what we're seeing.

[00:08:10]And so I I understand the term turbo cancer, but it has been I think uh it it's causing problems and people will think you're just a conspiracy theorist if you say that. What we're seeing is late stage presentation of cancer. And in the case of someone say who was a Hollywood star, I could bet if I saw his medical history. Remember this is not factual. This is just me extrapolating.

[00:08:42]He would have been having some symptoms which he then eventually got investigated and by the time he had it investigated he already had malignant metastatic disease.

[00:08:58]And this is what happens with say a melanoma. A melanoma small little cancer on the skin. skin just looks like a mole. Seems to be growing slowly. By the time you go to the dermatologist, it has already spread all over the body.

[00:09:15]That's what people are calling turbo cancer. So, it's not really turbo cancer. It's cancer behaving more like a melanoma where it is spreading rapidly to stage four disease even sometimes before it does stage two and stage three. And that's why once it's stage four that means it spread to distant organs.

[00:09:41]There's little you can do because you can't surgically take it out. You can try chemotherapy or you can try radiotherapy. But when it's scattered all over the body, it is then very difficult to treat and to reach. And this is probably why this was such a serious situation in his case. And the issue therefore means that we need to be far more judicious with looking at these patterns. So because again I have access to this kind of data um I'm showing you what has been happening across the line in terms of gastrointestinal cancers and as I said this is why I'm doing all these presentations I did the cardiovascular one looking at their patterns did a neurology one looking at their patterns doing a liver disease toxic liver disease I could do a cancer one as well and maybe I should this one would be looking at what is happening in terms of where we see the patterns for all these cancers. So you can see here C18.1 is malignant neoplasm of the appendix, C18 is colon, C20 is rectum and C25 is pancreas. And you can see all of these are characteristics of different cancers. benign appendic um appendix cancer, uncertain appendix cancer, retroparonial cancers. So when you look at all of those cancers and again you look at the time frame at the bottom 2016 to 17 to 2020, you can see they're all clustering together and that this is the pattern. Uh they're stable. Then you have the pandemic period where they fall off. Then you have a rebound afterwards.

[00:11:35]But again when you look at these cancers you can see in green again so you remember in green malignant neoplasm of the appendix this is by far the fastest growing cancer. So you can see all of the other ones um pancreatic cancer rectal cancer went down is relatively stable. Colon cancer overall is gradually rising but appendix cancer this is shooting off the scale. Now as I said if you I happen to have access to this kind of data to study it and to look for patterns but many people may not realize and because it's a rare cancer if somebody saw an appendix cancer in their hospital they would think gosh you know it's just unlucky.

[00:12:25]But when you look overall this is indicative that something is not right. Now here is the point that I'm making when you understand what happens with regards to COVID and intestinal inflammation and this is really really important and I think that this is what a lot of people don't quite understand and it's what we did in terms of our research paper. We had done a a whole paper looking at the patterns in relation to um in relation to postcoid and when we looked at this here in the center is the macrofase with spike remnants that's a separate discussion and this is driving a lot of inflammation but here is the most problematic issue that I see with people they have an altered microbiome. They have ongoing inflammation in their intestine. This is driving a specific kind of tea cell to then drive inflammation around the body. And this ongoing inflammation in the intestine in and of itself may be a risk for inflammation. And inflammation is also connected to cancer. And this is where the two link. And so what I'm saying to people is don't accept gut inflammation.

[00:14:00]Work at it. Try and find solutions for it. Even though it may be apparently stable, you think it's stable, but it may not be. And this is the important point that I'm saying to people. Don't underestimate just how significant this is. Look again at these points. I'm going to make this bigger for you so that you can you can understand where you fit. When I did this, this is hundreds of people who have contributed and if you want to contribute as well, you can add your piece to the puzzle.

[00:14:33]These are the questions. 55% of people were still symptomatic with their gut after 12 months. 70% had bloating after meals. 61% were unsure about whether or not they benefited from um probiotics. 70% had some bowel irregularities. All of these issues are going on across the population.

[00:15:00]What you have to do is understand where you are and how does this fit. So this is the lesson so to speak is that when we think of appendix cancer and bowel cancer generally address inflammation address the microbiome all of those things reduce risk they don't mean that the risk is gone completely but focus on addressing and reducing those risks um as I said this is about uh Adam uh who as I have seen on on a number of programs this is a picture from his Instagram with his wife. And even at this point, you can see he has two children, but you can see he's frail at this point. I usually look for temporal wasting around the temples. And just generally uh when you know what he looks like in um on the cinema, you know that this is towards the end stage of his condition. And this is very sad because he was such a great actor and it will be a loss for his family um as as well. And so the principle is make sure look in the description, make sure you address your gut health and look at least look and see the patterns other people are having and think about how it's relevant to you. And I'll leave you with this final thought of him playing the piano with his son. I think this is a wonderful memory and a great thing to remember all the wonderful work that he has done with regards to his family.

[00:16:41]Here, take a look at this here.

[00:17:16]As I said, in memory of Adan Kanto, uh, who died of appendix cancer, Uh let us take these opportunities to remember that at least uh we can be sad, we can reflect, um we can mourn his loss, but let us at least learn from those opportunities for all of us to think about how we can take care of our health. And that's the greatest gift that we have at this information in the near future.
