Cancer and Weight Management: What is the link?

Cancer is a ruthless and terrible disease which continues to become more and more prevalent, even in younger populations. What is the reason and the link? 

In this episode, we explore research into how cancer grows and whether there are things you can do to help stifle the growth or prevent it altogether. 

We also examine a healthcare provider's role in helping you express your health to its fullest extent, and we ask the question, does your healthcare provider even care to do that? 

Some hot topic questions that need to be asked and discussed... Enjoy the episode!
