Are Cancer Rates Increasing? with Dr. Krystle Zuniga

May 20, 2024

A report was published by the American Cancer Society with some updated statistics and this report led to a number of headlines that have caused some concern for a lot of people. Many headlines highlighted the fact that there are over 2 million cancer cases in the US, more than ever before. Others highlight the increasing cancer rates among young people. 

As we all know headlines can be misleading, so I brought my friend Dr. Krystle Zuniga on to the show to discuss the details of the report. On this episode we discuss: 

  • Why overall cancer rates are actually going down despite the headlines
  • What groups are seeing an increase in cancer rates
  • The main area of concern for rising cancer rates
  • What we can do from a nutrition standpoint  to reduce our risk of cancer 

and more.

I tried everything and snipd is the no 1 app for podcasts if you like to remember things. Just tap your headphones three times and a snipped is created, transcribed, and saved to you library.

I’ve been using Snipd for about a year and this app has been life changing. I listen to about 17 hours of podcasts a week and I want to take notes on 95% of them. Snipd makes it so easy to do. I can triple click my headphones and record a snip. The app also improves rapidly which is welcomed. It’s an easy subscription for me to pay.
