Over the years, it has become a widely held belief that cancer is predominantly genetic or simply the consequence of bad luck. An empowering evolution in cancer research, however, suggests we have far more control over our risk than previously thought. Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with cancer researcher and scientist Dr. Thomas Seyfried to discuss the underlying causes of cancer and why addressing metabolic dysfunction is a very important and often overlooked area of its prevention and treatment. In this episode, Dr. Seyfried shares the role that oxidative stress, mitochondrial health, and glucose play in the development and progression of cancer. He also discusses his research on ketogenic diets as a promising solution in helping to correct these imbalances. Dr. Seyfried describes the limitations of conventional cancer treatment, the role our modern-day society plays in the risk of cancer, and why diet and lifestyle strategies are an integral part of the solution for prevention and better treatment outcomes. Dr. Thomas Seyfried is an American professor of biology, genetics, and biochemistry at Boston College. He received his PhD from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 1976 and did his postdoctoral fellowship at the Yale University School of Medicine. Dr. Seyfried has over 150 peer-reviewed publications, and his research focuses primarily on the mechanisms driving cancer, epilepsy, and neurodegenerative diseases and calorie-restricted ketogenic diets in their prevention and treatment. He is the author of Cancer as a Metabolic Disease: On the Origin, Management, and Prevention of Cancer and presently serves on the Nutrition & Metabolism, Neurochemical Research, Journal of Lipid Research, and ASN Neuro editorial boards. In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Seyfried dive into: -Beliefs about the origins of cancer not accepted by the mainstream -What cancer is and why it’s so pervasive today -Where Dr. Seyfried’s beliefs differ from the conventional cancer model -The antismoking campaign’s success in cancer prevention -Metabolic health as a driver of cancer -The discovery of glucose fermentation and oxidative stress and their link to cancer -Conventional cancer treatment: could it be causing more harm than good? -Mitochondrial damage and cancer -The ketogenic diet as a promising anticancer intervention -Dr. Seyfried’s research and case studies -Limitations in conventional cancer treatment -Diet and lifestyle strategies for cancer prevention -Navigating cancer resources, testing, and treatments -Invasive vs noninvasive tools for cancer detection -Dr. Seyfried’s research and the future of cancer treatment and prevention Also mentioned in this episode: -Otto Warburg, the scientist who discovered the link between oxidative stress, glucose fermentation, and cancer: -Cancer as a Metabolic Disease: On the Origin, Management, and Prevention of Cancer: -Peter Attia’s episode with Dr. Seyfried: -Foundation for Metabolic Cancer Therapies: -The press-pulse therapeutic strategy for cancer management: For more on Dr. Thomas Seyfried: -Twitter: @tnseyfried -Website: Sign up for my FREE weekly newsletter to improve your health: This episode is brought to you by: -BiOptimizers Sleep Breakthrough: -LMNT: -Levels: For a limited time, you can get 10% off Sleep Breakthrough and a free bottle of Magnesium Breakthrough when you buy two or more!
