Podcasts about cancer risk

On episode 703 of the 40 Plus Fitness Podcast, Coach Allan welcomes Dr. Rafael Cuomo, a professor of science at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and author of The Hidden Biology of Addiction and Cancer. Together, they dive into the fascinating world of cravings—how our everyday patterns and habits, from a morning coffee to bedtime doom scrolling, silently shape our biology and impact our long-term health. Dr. Cuomo breaks down the invisible yet powerful effects of chronic cravings on metabolism, inflammation, and even our cancer risk, revealing why small daily choices matter so much more than one-off events. You'll hear enlightening stories, practical strategies to break free from damaging routines, and surprising insights into the links between stress, sleep, processed foods, and disease.   Time Stamps: 05:36 Dense Content, Immediate Engagement 07:08 Automatic Behavioral Patterns 11:06 The Cycle of Chronic Stress 13:21 Caffeine Habits Impact Health Risks 17:04 Reflecting on Past Work Routines 22:26 Metabolism, Not Activity, Affects Cancer 23:36 Glucose, Insulin, and Cancer Growth 28:13 C Reactive Protein and Cancer Risk 31:32 Mindset-Driven Cancer Prevention 35:00 Healthy Habit Transformation Steps 36:41 Rewiring Cravings: A Seven-Day Detox 41:41 Meme-Worthy Habits Signal Caution 43:34 Promoting Healthy Work-Life Balance Get the book, Crave on Amazon - https://amzn.to/4kBlq2D.

Episode 311 Geoengineering could be the best way to avoid catastrophic climate disaster - but there's a big catch. In the recent Global Tipping Points Conference in the UK, scientists discussed growing concerns that the AMOC may be on the verge of collapsing. This is a system of ocean currents that plays a crucial role in regulating global climate. With the window of action rapidly closing, one climate model suggests geoengineering is the fastest way to stop this from happening. But without global consensus, the team explains how geoengineering could also damage the climate further or even lead to a new kind of warfare. We're brushing up against the edge of mathematics with the uncovering of a number so large it's hard to even describe. Busy Beaver numbers are used to describe the longest possible run-times of ‘Turing machines' - a theoretical model of computation conceived by Alan Turing. These numbers are surprisingly hard to figure out. But after uncovering the fifth Busy Beaver number in 2021, an online community of mathematicians now thinks they've figured out the sixth number - and it's beyond massive. What does this mean for the nature of mathematics? We've known for a long time that exercise is a great way of reducing cancer risk - and now we finally know why. A new study suggests changes in the microbiome caused by exercise can reduce tumour growth - and there appears to be one particular molecule that's doing this good work. Does this mean we could one day use poop transplants as a cancer treatment? Chapters: (00:22) Can geoengineering save us from climate disaster? (16:59) Have we broken mathematics? (25:42) Why exercise reduces cancer risk Hosted by Rowan Hooper and Penny Sarchet, with guests Michael Le Page, Jacob Aron, Claudia Wieners and Marlies Meisel.

Send us a textAshley and Danielle discuss the significant relationship between vitamin D levels and colorectal cancer risk, particularly in individuals with IBD. We talk about the role of Vitamin D in inflammation reduction, and the importance of maintaining optimal vitamin D levels for overall health. We highlight research findings that suggest higher vitamin D levels may correlate with lower rates of colon cancer!  We always emphasize with our patients that supplementation strategies are very individualized and based on the patient's health conditions and dietary intake. So, please check with your doctor or dietitian about your vitamin D levels and possible supplementation if needed. TakeawaysVitamin D is crucial for immune function and inflammation regulation.Many individuals with IBD are at risk for vitamin D deficiency.A research study shows that higher vitamin D levels may lead to lower colorectal cancer rates.Regular testing of vitamin D levels is important, especially for those with IBD.Diet alone may not provide sufficient vitamin D; supplementation is often necessary.Individual health status and lifestyle factors should guide vitamin D supplementation.Consulting healthcare providers about vitamin D levels is essential.Maintaining optimal vitamin D levels can decrease other health risks too.00:00- The Link Between Vitamin D and Colorectal Cancer03:11- Understanding Vitamin D's Role in Inflammatory Bowel Disease06:04- Optimal Vitamin D Levels and Recommendations09:10- Individualized Approaches to Vitamin D SupplementationFollow us on instagram @crohns_and_colitis_dietitiansFollow us on youtube @thecrohnscolitisdietitiansWe love helping provide quality content on IBD nutrition and making it more accessible to all through our podcast, instagram and youtube channel.

Story at-a-glance People managing multiple chronic illnesses are nearly twice as likely to develop depression, even if they've never had mental health issues before, according to a decade-long study Living with both heart disease and diabetes drastically increases your future depression risk, making cardiometabolic combinations among the most dangerous for emotional health outcomes Chronic illnesses like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), liver disease, and bowel disorders sharply increase your risk of depression by overwhelming your body's ability to regulate mood and energy Women with joint and bone issues like arthritis face a higher depression risk than men with the same diagnosis, revealing a serious and often ignored gender vulnerability Depression doesn't just follow disease — it drives it. Left untreated, it speeds up illness progression, weakens your immune system, and increases your chances of hospitalization

The show and sources describe several key developments in the AI field on a specific day. They highlight the launch of a nonprofit promoting ethical and transparent AI, a legal dispute between Reddit and Anthropic over data scraping, and advancements allowing users more control over AI avatars for creative content. The information also covers the FDA approval of an AI tool for breast cancer prediction, Apple's potential breakthrough in chip technology for AI processing, and Mistral's release of a new AI coding client. Finally, concerns are raised regarding DeepSeek potentially using Google's Gemini for training and Windsurf's claims that Anthropic is restricting access to its Claude models.

In this episode, Dr. Vonda Wright sits down with Dr. Corinne Menn, a board-certified OBGYN, Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, and 23-year breast cancer survivor who brings both clinical expertise and lived experience to the menopause conversation. A BRCA carrier and surgical menopause patient, Dr. Menn is a fierce advocate for women navigating cancer risk, premature menopause, and hormone health.   Together, they unpack the major gaps in menopause care—from the underuse of hormone therapy (only 4–5% of women use it) to the widespread misinformation among healthcare providers. Dr. Menn sheds light on how women with conditions like endometriosis, PCOS, or hereditary cancer risk are often excluded from mainstream menopause discussions and left without support. She explains why many cancer survivors can safely use hormone therapy under updated guidelines and why progesterone is still needed even after hysterectomy if endometriosis was present.   This powerful conversation is a must-listen for anyone impacted by surgical or early menopause, and those advocating for more compassionate, informed, and personalized care. ••• Connect with Dr. Corinne Menn: Instagram: @drmennobgyn TikTok: @drmennobgyn Website: www.drmenn.com Alloy Website: www.myalloy.com ••• Make sure to follow Dr. Vonda Wright: Instagram: @drvondawright Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@vondawright Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drvondawright LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vonda-wright-md-ms-2803374 Website: http://www.DrVondaWright.com ••• If you enjoyed this episode, Subscribe to “HOT For Your Health” for more inspiring episodes.

AP correspondent Haya Panjwani reports on weight loss drugs and cancer.

When patients understand their inherited risk for cancer, they're empowered to take action—often before cancer has a chance to take hold.In this second episode of our Bringing Precision Medicine to Every Patient series, host Karan Cushman is joined by two trusted experts, Ellen Matloff and Dr. Angella Charnot-Katsikas. Together, they provide clear, practical guidance on how patients and clinicians can identify inherited cancer risk early—and take steps to address it.Whether you're a patient wondering where to begin, or a provider navigating limited time and resources, this episode delivers clear takeaways to help you move from uncertainty to informed action.It's a timely reminder that precision medicine doesn't begin with treatment—it begins with knowledge. And with the right tools and support, patients can take control of their health and rewrite the story for generations to come.Ellen Matloff is a nationally recognized genetic counselor, founder and CEO of My Gene Counsel, and a leading voice in digital health and patient-centered genomics. She founded and led the Yale Cancer Genetic Counseling Program and was a plaintiff in the landmark Supreme Court case that overturned gene patenting.Dr. Angella Charnot-Katsikas is Chief Medical Officer at Palmetto GBA and a molecular diagnostics expert who helps guide coverage decisions through her work in precision medicine policy.They share compelling stories that bring the science to life. Ellen reflects on one of her first BRCA1-positive patients—a healthy young mother who chose preventive surgery based on a powerful family history of cancer and a determination to break the cycle. Dr. Katsikas offers her own experience as both a pre-vivor and survivor, whose early diagnosis was only possible because of proactive testing and screening guided by her family history.The episode also explains why many patients still miss these opportunities—due to limited awareness, inconsistent risk assessments, and systemic barriers in access. The guests highlight the limitations of consumer tests like 23andMe and the critical role of genetic counselors in interpreting results and guiding decisions.They offer actionable strategies for integrating family history collection and risk assessment into routine care, including the use of digital tools in busy or resource-limited settings. Reimbursement challenges are discussed, alongside encouraging progress toward making precision medicine standard of care.Special thanks to our good friend Dr. Kashyap Patel and the No One Left Alone initiative forcollaborating with us on this series. Our goal with Bringing Precision Medicine to Everyone is to equip patients, caregivers and care teams with the knowledge and tools needed to deliver the best of modern cancer care–no matter where a patient lives.

In this video, Dr. Doug Lucas discusses the relationship between hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and cancer risk, particularly focusing on estrogen and progesterone. He reviews recent literature, including a 2025 paper that raises concerns about micronized progesterone and progestins. Dr. Doug emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between these two forms of progesterone and presents various studies, including the Women's Health Initiative and the PEPI trial, to analyze their implications on cancer risk. He concludes that while there are risks associated with HRT, micronized progesterone does not appear to significantly increase breast cancer risk, advocating for a careful risk-benefit analysis in treatment decisions.*STUDIES*https://www.annalsofoncology.org/article/S0923-7534(24)04880-4/fulltexthttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24781971/https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/395611https://academic.oup.com/jnci/article-abstract/95/1/30/2520191?redirectedFrom=fulltexthttps://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/cmt.5.4.332.340

BUFFALO, NY - May 14, 2025 – A new #review paper was #published in Volume 16 of Oncotarget on May 9, 2025, titled “Relationship between ABO blood group antigens and Rh factor with breast cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis." A comprehensive study, led by first authors Rahaf Alchazal from Yarmouk University and Khaled J. Zaitoun from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and Jordan University of Science and Technology, examined the potential link between blood type and breast cancer. The research team conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of 29 previously published studies, involving more than 13,000 breast cancer patients and over 717,000 controls. “Researchers searched for studies on breast cancer patients and ABO blood groups across four major databases: PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google.“ Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide. Identifying risk factors is vital for early detection and prevention. While many studies have explored lifestyle and genetic causes, this analysis focused on the ABO blood group system. By pooling global data, the researchers found that blood type A was the most common among breast cancer patients and was significantly associated with an 18% increased risk compared to type O. The study did not find a significant association between breast cancer and blood types B, AB, or Rh factor. Although the results do not prove causation, they point to a biological pattern worth further investigation. Blood group antigens are proteins found on the surface of cells, including breast tissue. These molecules may influence how cancer develops and spreads by interacting with the immune system or affecting cell behavior. This meta-analysis is the most extensive review to date on this topic, based on studies conducted across Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas. While previous research found unclear conclusions, this large-scale evaluation provides stronger evidence for a possible connection between blood type A and breast cancer risk. Researchers note that regional differences, genetic diversity, and study quality may affect individual results. Nevertheless, the overall trend supports considering blood type A as a potential risk marker. This insight could help shape screening guidelines, encouraging earlier or more frequent checkups for women with this blood type. Further research is needed to understand why blood type A may play a role in cancer development. Future studies may explore genetic mechanisms, immune responses, and other biological pathways. These efforts could lead the way for more personalized cancer prevention and care strategies. DOI - https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.28718 Correspondence to - Khaled J.

Dr. Paul Marik is a pulmonary and critical care specialist and a founding member of the Independent Medical Alliance, formerly known as the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance.“Our healthcare system is completely and utterly broken. From the top to the bottom, it's a broken, dysfunctional system,” says Marik. “If you do an experiment, it should be reproducible. And I think that's the most important qualifier of good science; the results are reproducible, because then, it's likely to be true.”Best known for his revolutionary, lifesaving protocol for Sepsis and for being the second most published critical care physician in the world, Marik is now focusing his efforts on the treatment and prevention of cancer.“Intermittent fasting, in which the body was designed to eat for a while and then to starve for a while, is not a difficult concept. The human body wasn't designed to snack and eat all the time, which is what people seem to do. And that has serious metabolic consequences, with high insulin levels and insulin resistance,” says Dr. Marik. “Vitamin D is effective in preventing cancer, but it's also very effective in the treatment of cancer.”Views expressed in this video are those of the host and the guest and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Brett Heins went through breast cancer in her late 30s. Kristin Goodman was in her early 40s when she was diagnosed. Both women are well below the average age at diagnosis – 62 – leading them to wonder what caused their cancer to develop. A growing body of research shows lifestyle choices – everything from drinking alcohol to following a healthy diet – influences one's risk of breast cancer.

Discover the way ahead at Indiana Wesleyan University. Learn more here. Alcohol and drinking can be a controversial topic for Christians. Some believe drinking is a sin and some believe that Jesus is accepting of it because he drank wine himself. But the question remains: “How much alcohol is acceptable (if any) as a Christian seeking to honor God?” In today's episode, Quinn discusses this very topic by talking about: 1. What the surgeon general stated in his January 2025 advisory 2. What the Bible has to say about drinking and what is recommended as a healthy amount 3. Questions to ask yourself about your drinking to help you have a clear mind Mind Renewal Tip: Drinking often takes more than it adds but we tend to focus on the short term benefit and ignore the long term cost.

When unresolved trauma lingers in our bodies, it often manifests as chronic health issues or diseases, such as cancer. The medical community is just beginning to uncover the powerful link between trauma, ACE scores, and cancer. With trauma-informed care now being integrated into medical practices, we're seeing a shift towards more holistic approaches to healing—something the healing community has long known. This is a major breakthrough, and it brings us closer to addressing the root cause of illness, not just the symptoms. In this episode, Elisabeth and Jennifer sit down with Dr. Aleksandra Filipovic, a medical doctor, oncologist, and scientist in cancer cell biology, who's at the forefront of creating holistic treatments for cancer and immune-related conditions. Dr. Filipovic shares her insights on ACE scores and their impact on both our physical health and society. She explores the deep connection between mental and physical health, especially in relation to our immune systems, and how nervous system work can be a game-changer in healing chronic illnesses. Dr. Filipovic also opens up about her personal journey with chronic illness and how it led her to develop a trauma-informed practice that integrates nervous system regulation to promote healing. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding the nervous system's role in chronic health issues and how NSI can be used as a tool to address these issues.  It's easy to blame our bodies when chronic health issues arise, but the truth is, these responses are often a call for healing. By reframing how we view health and learning to work with our nervous systems, we can uncover the root causes of disease and begin the journey to true healing. If this resonates with you, tune in to this episode for more insights into trauma-informed healing and the powerful connection between mind, body, and immune health. Don't miss it! Topics discussed in this episode: Dr. Aleksandra Filipovic's personal healing journey and its influence on her practice What trauma truly means and how it affects our health The prevalence of high ACE scores in society and their long-term impact The deep connection between mental and physical health How the body communicates trauma and what it's trying to tell us Normalizing our body's protective responses to trauma Why trauma healing is a slow and ongoing process The vital role the nervous system plays in immune health Dr. Filipovic's integration of trauma-informed care into her practice Why it's crucial for practitioners to heal their own nervous systems The power of asking open-ended questions in healing sessions How NSI supports chronic health recovery Dr. Filipovic's proposal for trauma-based interventions for cancer, in collaboration with the UN To learn more about Dr. Aleksandra Filipovic's holistic practice, head to The H.E.A.L.

A study finds that Peto's Paradox, which states that larger animals are no more likely to get cancer than smaller ones, may not hold up. Also, a nearly complete predator skull was found in the Egyptian desert. Its lineage indicates that it was a top carnivore of the age.What Does An Animal's Size Have To Do With Its Cancer Risk?If you throw a huge party, there's more of a chance of problems than if you host a quiet get-together for a couple of friends. The logic is simple: Having more people around means more opportunities for chaos. Similarly, it would seem to make sense that in animals, a bigger species with more cells might have a greater chance of something going wrong with one of those cells, including mutations leading to cancer.Back in 1977, a British epidemiologist named Richard Peto observed that that didn't seem to be true. Bigger animals didn't seem to have a greater risk of cancer than smaller ones. That became known as Peto's Paradox, and has been a topic of debate among cancer biologists ever since.Research published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences takes a new look at Peto's Paradox using an unusual set of data—death reports from zoos around the world. Dr. Sarah Amend of Johns Hopkins Medical School joins Host Flora Lichtman to explain why, in their findings, Peto's Paradox doesn't seem to hold up—and what studying animal cancer rates could teach scientists about improving human health.Meet Bastetodon, A 30 Million-Year-Old Apex PredatorOnce upon a time, some 30 million years ago, what is now Egypt's Western Desert was a lush forest. Humans had not evolved yet, the nearest relatives being monkey-like creatures. And through those forests stalked Bastetodon syrtos, a newly described apex predator from an extinct lineage known as the Hyaenodonts—one of the top carnivores of the age.Researchers recently discovered a nearly complete skull of the creature. They reported on the find in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology. Host Flora Lichtman talks with Shorouq Al-Ashqar of the Mansoura University Vertebrate Paleontology Center about the discovery, and the picture it helps paint of ancient life.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.
