Episode 55 - Groundbraking Cancer Treatment Approach
During our insightful podcast episode on SelFormAtion-BYou, Dr. Thomas Seyfried shared groundbreaking findings on cancer as a metabolic disease. Delving into the mechanisms of metabolic therapy, he explained its efficacy in managing chronic diseases like epilepsy, neurodegenerative lipid storage diseases, and, most notably, cancer. Our conversation touched upon the transformative impact of caloric restriction, fasting, and ketogenic diets as integral components of metabolic therapies. Dr. Seyfried illuminated the idea that compensatory metabolic pathways possess the remarkable ability to modify the pathogenesis of complex diseases. As we explored his research, it became evident that inducing global shifts in the metabolic environment can neutralize molecular pathology. Specifically in the context of cancer, these therapies were discussed for their targeted approach to eliminate tumor cells while promoting the physiological health of normal cells. Our dialogue delved into the neurochemical and genetic mechanisms underlying these phenomena, incorporating novel animal models and exploring processes such as inflammation, cellular physiology, angiogenesis, and lipid biochemistry. It was a privilege to have Dr. Seyfried as a guest, shedding light on groundbreaking insights that redefine our understanding of cancer.
