Calley Means graduated from Stanford undergrad and Harvard Business School, and went on to lobby American politicians on behalf of big food and big pharmaceutical companies. Now he is exposing the incentives for this toxic duo of Big Food and Big Pharmaceutical to keep us fatter, sicker, and more depressed, in addition to the corrupt practices they engage in to do it -- from intimidating our senators and buying off our doctors with “consulting fees,” to paying off civil rights groups and social media influencers to slap labels like racist, ableist, fat shamer, and more on those who are crying fowl.

Understanding Cancer & the Latest Scientific Breakthroughs to Reduce Risk / Cure It, with Dr. Sanjay Juneja

Dr. Sanjay Juneja joins Jillian to explain what cancer is (or rather, what makes your cells “go rogue”) - from viruses and their variants like HPV and cervical cancer, mononucleosis, and Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, to things that “invite” cancer like smoking, drinking, poor sleep, working night shifts and more. Then, we discuss top strategies to reduce cancer risk, like cultivating a diverse microbiome, managing insulin levels, hormone balance, etc. Dr Juneja explains which scans and screenings we need to ask for (MRIs, CTs, PET scans), new tests like Galleri and GRAIL, as well as guidelines now and in the future.  Dr. Juneja is a practicing triple board-certified hematologist and medical oncologist known nationally as “TheOncDoc,” where he boasts over half a million subscribers across his social media platforms.
