Podcasts about cancer risk

Unprocessed red meat and cancer risk remains one of the most debated topics in nutrition science, partly because the evidence is often presented in overly simplistic terms. The key question is not whether to adopt a vague "balanced" position on red meat, but whether the evidence clearly identifies intake levels at which colorectal cancer risk increases and whether controlled human trials support plausible mechanisms for that risk. A second issue is whether claims that fibre, vegetables, or an otherwise "healthy diet" can neutralise high red meat intake are actually supported by the mechanistic evidence, or whether they overstate what dietary context can plausibly offset. In this episode, Danny and Alan examine the evidence base by moving beyond the usual epidemiology-only debate. They discuss why regional intake patterns and dose thresholds matter, then explore controlled human feeding studies showing how higher red meat intake can increase endogenous N-nitroso compound formation, faecal water genotoxicity, and other mechanistic biomarkers linked to colorectal carcinogenesis.

A headline like “weight loss drugs may reduce breast cancer risk” grabs attention fast, but the real story lives in the fine print. We take you through a new Penn Medicine study that observed lower breast cancer rates among women with overweight or obesity who used GLP-1 medications, then we translate what that finding actually means in plain language. Observational data can reveal a signal worth studying, but it cannot prove the medication caused the outcome, and that distinction matters for your decisions and your expectations. We also zoom out to the bigger why: obesity is not just about body size. Fat tissue is biologically active, shaping chronic inflammation, estrogen exposure after menopause, insulin resistance, and even how well the immune system spots abnormal cells. Those pathways help explain why obesity is linked to many cancers, including postmenopausal breast cancer, and why researchers are curious whether effective obesity treatment could shift risk over time. Then we get practical. We review what stronger evidence from randomized controlled trials says so far: GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound do not appear to increase breast cancer risk in the available trial data, even though most trials were not designed to study cancer outcomes for many years. We also discuss why newer studies seem most suggestive for hormone receptor positive breast cancer, along with the leading theories: weight loss itself, improved metabolic health and insulin signaling, reduced inflammation, and the still-unclear possibility of direct GLP-1 effects in cancer biology. If you like evidence-based medicine with real-world context (and a little Philly-life banter), subscribe, share this episode with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.

Three years. Over 2,000 participants. A randomized controlled trial. And the results stopped the researchers themselves. A 61% reduction in invasive cancer risk. A 39% reduction in becoming physically frail. And measurable slowing of biological aging, verified by epigenetic clocks, the most sophisticated tool science has for measuring how fast your cells are actually aging. These were not elite athletes. They were regular older adults. And the three things that produced these results are inexpensive, accessible, and available at any supplement store. Most people are either missing them entirely or doing them in a way that produces almost no benefit. Dr. G breaks down exactly what the study found and what you need to do with it. In this episode, you'll learn:  • Why omega-3 deficiency carries a mortality risk comparable to smoking, and the specific EPA and DHA dose that the research shows actually slows biological aging at the cellular level  • Why vitamin D is not optional if you exercise, and why low vitamin D means the training you are already doing is producing a fraction of the benefit it should  • Why the combination of all three produces results that are not additive but multiplicative, and what that means for anyone over 40 who wants to change their biological trajectory The window that matters most is not when you are 60. It is now.

Welcome back to Strong + Unfiltered. Today's episode is a solo Q&A all about hormone replacement therapy, perimenopause, progesterone, estrogen, blood clot myths, and the massive amount of misinformation women are still being fed about hormones. We're diving into the REAL differences between birth control and bioidentical HRT, what the WHI study actually did (and didn't) show, why some women are safer ON estrogen than off of it, and why "just wait until menopause" is outdated advice that's keeping women suffering unnecessarily. I also break down pellets, PCOS and HRT, cyclic estrogen dosing, how I monitor hormones in practice, and why symptoms like anxiety, rage, fatigue, sleep issues, brain fog, joint pain, and "not feeling like yourself" may absolutely be connected to perimenopause long before your periods disappear. If you've ever been told your labs are "normal" while you feel exhausted, anxious, inflamed, ragey, wide awake at 2am, or completely unlike yourself… this episode is for you.

HPV gets treated like a life sentence, and the conversation usually stops at fear, procedures, or a vaccine that does not fully protect. In this episode, Dr. Ritamarie talks with women's health expert Dr. Doni Wilson about what actually drives HPV persistence, why most women are told “there's nothing you can do,” and how a terrain-based approach helps the body clear high-risk HPV and stay negative long term.You'll learn what to look for beyond exposure, how the vaginal microbiome, hormones, blood sugar, nutrient status, toxins, and chronic stress shape susceptibility, and which overlooked lab clues can point to the real problem, before it becomes a crisis.What's Inside This Episode?The question most HPV conversations never askWhy eliminating a virus isn't the same as eliminating riskThe early signals and lab clues that matter before abnormal cells appearThe missing piece in cervical cancer prevention most women never hearHow understanding the why changes everythingResources and Links:Download the full transcript here.

Health systems are under increasing pressure to detect cancer earlier and deliver more personalized care, but scaling those capabilities across a large organization remains a complex challenge. In this episode, leaders from AdventHealth share how they are addressing that challenge through their Genomics Risk Assessment for Cancer and Early Detection (GRACE) program, an initiative designed to identify high-risk patients earlier and guide them into appropriate care pathways. Dr. Wesley Walker, vice president of genomics and precision health, and Dr. Clark Rogers, medical director of the GRACE program, explain how the model integrates risk assessment seamlessly into routine clinical workflows.

Iranian researchers found women who talk on phones for more than sixty minutes daily had three and a half times higher odds of confirmed breast cancer compared to those using phones less than ten minutes daily. In this episode, I break down this new multicenter case-control study of two hundred twenty-six women and what it means for the millions of people who exceed sixty minutes of daily phone conversations. We'll explore the biological mechanisms that make this finding plausible and discuss practical steps you can take today. In This Episode Key findings from the Iranian breast cancer and mobile phone study Why sixty minutes daily represents a potential health threshold Simple strategies to reduce your radiofrequency radiation exposure Featured Study Read the full study: (2025) Radiofrequency radiation from mobile phones and the risk of breast cancer: A multicenter case–control study with an additional suspected comparison group See all studies at shieldyourbody.com/research

Cancer has overtaken heart disease as the leading cause of death in many developed countries and US states, and is the leading cause of healthcare expenditure worldwide. That's the bad news. The good news is that half of all cancer deaths could be preventable through lifestyle changes and social reforms.Outsmarting Cancer reframes one of the most pressing medical challenges of our time: how to prevent cancer. Dr. Barsouk presents a sweeping examination of cancer's true origins—biological, environmental, dietary, infectious, industrial, occupational, and behavioral—and makes a compelling case for why cancer prevention must become a central priority in public and personal health. His book explores a wide range of overlooked and misunderstood risk factors, as well as how inequities in diagnosis, treatment, and prevention disproportionately impact underserved populations.

In this transformative episode  host Myrna Young invites Sylvie Beljanski, a leading voice in integrative cancer research, for a poignant discussion about the intertwined roles of emotional well-being and physical health in cancer treatment. This enlightening conversation challenges conventional perspectives, highlighting how emotions such as fear, stress, and chronic psychological trauma can significantly impact cancer risk and recovery.Sylvie dives deep into the holistic approach to cancer treatment, emphasizing the power of plant-based solutions and the importance of emotional healing alongside conventional therapies like chemotherapy. She shares personal anecdotes of her family's experience with the medical industry, illustrating the essential need for patients to be empowered and informed about their choices. Through education and awareness, Sylvie advocates for a multifaceted treatment strategy that respects the patient's emotional and psychological journey, not just the physical symptoms.Timestamp Summary0:02 The Emotional Connection to Cancer and Holistic Healing14:23 Balancing Emotions, Nutrition, and Medical Decisions in Cancer Prevention21:41 Boost Energy and Focus with Spark Energy Focus24:52 Empowering Cancer Patients Through Emotional and Holistic Healing34:52 Transforming Trauma Through Perspective Shifts37:19 Transforming Trauma and Anger Into Purposeful Service43:37 Integrative Approaches and Plant-Based Solutions in Cancer Treatment58:32 Healing Cancer Through Emotional Well-Being and Integrative ApproachesResources:Beljanski Foundation: beljanski.orgIntegrative Cancer Conference: integrativecancerconference.comSponsors of this podcastSpark Energy + Focus is your go-to pre-workout ritual when you need reliable energy to power through the day. drinkspark.com and use code TRANSFORM for 30% off and free shipping With Wegovy at Hers, lose up to 20% or more of your body weight when combined with diet and exercise.  Visit forhers.com/transform to get personalized, affordable care that gets you. See this video on The Transform Your Mind YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@MyhelpsUs/videosTo see a transcripts of this audio as well as links to all the advertisers on the show page https://myhelps.us/Follow Transform Your Mind on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/myrnamyoung/Follow Transform Your mind on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063738390977Please leave a rating and review on iTunes https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/transform-your-mind/id1144973094Feedspot Top 100 Mental Health Podcast For sponsored Brand interviews and sponsorship inquires please visit Partner With The Transform Your Mind Podcast | Myrna Young Life Coach

GI cancers are skyrocketing in young people. Colon cancer killed Chadwick Boseman at 43. And, we can all drastically lower our cancer risks almost immediately. In this episode, a top surgeon shares exactly how. Today's guest is Dr. Karan Rajan, an NHS surgeon, who has worked with the UN, World Health Organization, and British Red Cross. He shares the three things you can do every single day to lower your risk of GI cancer, what's actually driving chronic inflammation, and the one highest-return, lowest-effort habit for your health—plus he's running through his honest thoughts on cold plunges, seed oils, GLP-1s, saunas, and more sharing exactly what the science says.

In this episode of Managed Care Cast, Ella Hohmann speaks with Douglas Marks, MD, breast medical oncologist and associate professor at NYU Grossman Long Island School of Medicine, about the role of lifestyle interventions in reducing breast cancer risk. Marks reviews the evidence behind dietary modification, physical activity, and alcohol reduction, and discusses why some of these strategies remain underutilized despite their strong risk-benefit profiles. The conversation also addresses critical gaps in the research, including the underrepresentation of minority populations in clinical and epidemiologic studies, and the socioeconomic barriers that limit real-world uptake of preventive interventions. Looking ahead, Marks shares his perspective on emerging opportunities from GLP-1 receptor agonists to wearable technology and AI-driven monitoring that could transform how clinicians support and track lifestyle change in their patients.

Dr. Rhonda Patrick, PhD, is a biomedical scientist and public science educator. She shares the exercise, nutrition, supplementation and lifestyle practices linked to better health and lower disease risk including specific cardio and resistance training routines, when and why to do intermittent fasting, ways to lower visceral fat, omega-3 sourcing, creatine for brain and muscle and peptides such as BPC-157.

Blood vitamin D levels, not supplement dose, determine breast cancer risk, with studies showing roughly a 40% to 50% lower risk once levels rise into protective ranges Women who maintain blood vitamin D levels around 50 to 60 ng/mL experience the greatest protection, while levels below 20 ng/mL consistently link to higher and more aggressive breast cancer risk Large pooled analyses and clinical trials show breast cancer risk drops step by step as vitamin D levels increase, with no evidence of harm at higher physiological levels Sunlight, exercise, and metabolic health strongly influence how much vitamin D actually reaches and protects breast tissue, explaining why intake alone often falls short Addressing low vitamin D by combining sunlight, targeted supplementation, exercise, and metabolic support turns vitamin D into a measurable, trackable strategy for long-term breast cancer prevention
