from Born to Heal: Holistic Healing for Optimal Health · host Dr. Katie Deming, M.D. | Conscious Oncologist
What if the cancer treatments you trust are built on the wrong foundation?Dr. Thomas Seyfried has spent decades building the scientific case that cancer isn't a genetic disease. It's a metabolic one. And that distinction changes everything. He breaks down exactly why cancer cells can't survive without glucose and glutamine, why conventional oncology has largely ignored this, and why managing cancer without toxic side effects isn't just possible.
