Professor Thomas Seyfried joins the conversation to challenge the conventional view of cancer as a genetic disease, presenting it instead as a metabolic disorder influenced by lifestyle factors.

With over 30 years of research, Seyfried argues that current cancer treatments may exacerbate the disease. He discusses the role of glucose and glutamine in cancer metabolism and emphasizes the potential of metabolic therapy, including ketogenic diets, for prevention and management. Explore the compelling intersection of biochemistry, lifestyle, and cancer with Seyfried's groundbreaking insights.
