Degrees of Health Professor Thomas Seyfried | Cancer as a Mitochondrial Metabolic Disease
Meet Professor Thomas Seyfried, the biologist leading a revolution in how we fight cancer and other chronic diseases with metabolic therapies. Author of the acclaimed book 'Cancer as a Metabolic Disease', Professor Seyfried talks through the evolutionary biology behind cancer and the scientific evidence that disproves the consensus theory on the origin of cancer. His focus on the need for mitochondrial health and metabolic therapies opens up the conversation for new avenues of treatment that are less toxic and, quite possibly, more effective.

🥬 How cancer cells thrive on fermentation - and how this changes treatment approaches
📉 The future of cancer care - rethinking research, funding, and patient education
🥩 Ketogenic diets and cancer
💊 Glutamine inhibitors and parasite drugs - tools with potential in fighting metastatic cancer
⚠️ The cost of traditional care - understanding why metabolic therapies may work better than or in addition to SOC
🌍 Why mitochondrial health matters – for cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and more
Professor Seyfried is astounded by how many cancer patients start to use metabolic therapy only after they've exhausted all other options and they haven't worked. He believes the first thing you need to do is get your body into NK, whatever treatment you choose. For patients, researchers, and anyone interested in the future of cancer care, this episode presents the latest metabolic science and the latest framework for cancer prevention and treatment strategies.
You have to ask - are we literally tripping over the truth here?
