335. Boost Your Body’s Ability to Prevent Cancer with Dr. Elizabeth Boham

At 30 years old, Dr. Elizabeth Boham received a surprising diagnosis: triple-negative breast cancer. Twenty three years later, she looks back on how that brush with an aggressive disease shaped her beliefs about nutrition, healing, and functional medicine. In this episode, Dr. Boham shares how your internal terrain can either be friendly or unfriendly to growing cancer cells — and how to create an inner environment that prevents cancer and other common diseases.0:06:34 – Dr. Boham's Journey with Cancer0:11:56 – Institute for Functional Medicine0:16:26 – Creating an Unhealthy Terrain for Cancer0:16:31 – Insulin Resistance0:20:08 – Fiber0:21:25 – Growth Hormone0:23:18 – Toxins0:24:37 – Microbiome0:26:03 – Phytonutrients0:27:45 – Sprouts0:32:32 – Polyphenols0:33:33 – Xenoestrogens in Plastics0:36:19 – Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat0:38:06 – Epinutrients0:38:40 – BRCA Genes0:39:51 – Tumor Supressor Gene0:40:10 – EGCG0:49:37 – Glyphosate0:50:13 – Glutathione0:55:44 – Stress0:58:09 – Functional Medicine1:05:43 – Immunotherapy1:10:01 – Mindfulness1:11:31 – Meditation1:13:23 – Gratitude1:17:42 – Fight or Flight1:21:59 – Antibiotics1:26:10 – EstrogenCheck out Dr. Elizabeth Boham’s work at http://www.drboham.com/Podcast Sections + Time ShifterLearn about Commune and check out all our health, nutrition, and functional medicine courses free for 14 days at onecommune.com/trial.This podcast is supported by BetterHelp.
