What if the biggest gap in cancer care isn’t the treatment but what happens before and after? In this episode of ReInvent Healthcare, Dr. Ritamarie Loscalzo is joined by Dr. Nalini Chilkov, founder of the American Institute of Integrative Oncology Research and Education (aiioRE.com), to explore how functional practitioners can fill the urgent void left by conventional oncology.

Discover why building a body where cancer cannot thrive is essential, whether your client is recovering from treatment, living with cancer long-term, or wants to prevent recurrence. From terrain restoration and tumor microenvironment to nutrient repletion, blood viscosity, immune modulation, and glycemic control, this episode uncovers clinical strategies every practitioner needs to know to better support cancer patients and survivors.
