The conversation
Dr. Thomas Seyfried, a professor of biology and genetics at Boston College, presents his theory that cancer is a metabolic disease driven by diet and mitochondrial dysfunction, not genetics. He advocates for metabolic therapy using a ketogenic diet, calorie restriction, and glutamine-targeting drugs to prevent and manage cancer. The episode critiques standard cancer treatments and explores lifestyle factors like blood sugar control and exercise.
