Podcasts about cancer risk

Story at-a-glance Women with moderate triclosan exposure face up to 2.33 times greater breast cancer risk Triclosan, found in 75% of Americans' urine, is readily absorbed through skin and commonly appears in antibacterial products, cosmetics and even clothing, making its way into blood, breast milk and the food chain Exposure to environmental chemicals like DDT, dioxins and BPA during pregnancy, infancy or puberty significantly increases breast cancer risk decades later by disrupting normal development A 2023 study reveals triclosan's cancer-promoting mechanisms, showing it increases oxidative stress that damages cells and affects telomere length, both of which contribute to breast cancer development Simple preventive steps include avoiding antimicrobial products, choosing organic produce, improving indoor air quality and carefully scrutinizing personal care product ingredients to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals

RUSH MD Anderson Cancer Center's Breast Cancer Risk Assessment and Personalized Screening Program incorporates sophisticated diagnostic and therapeutic tools that Lisa Stempel, MD, and her colleagues use to determine the most effective care pathway for patients who are at high risk for breast cancer. Dr. Stempel is a diagnostic radiologist at RUSH MD Anderson. She is chief of the Division of Breast Imaging and director of the High-Risk Cancer Screening Program at RUSH MD Anderson. “Screening mammography is a great model we can use for early detection for other types of cancers. For example, if we can catch breast cancer in its early stages, say stage 0 or 1, there's a 99.9% cure rate. Even if it's stage 2, we have a 93% cure rate. Early detection applies to almost all types of cancers, too. What we've learned is that with mammography and the addition of supplemental screening tests, we can find breast cancer at the earliest stages.”

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.

BUFFALO, NY - March 11, 2025 – A new #editorial was #published in Oncotarget, Volume 16, on March 10, 2025, titled “EXPOSOMES and GENES: The duo influencing CANCER initiation and progression." In this editorial, Drs. Uzma Saqib, Katherine E. Ricks, Alexander G. Obukhov, and Krishnan Hajela from Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya (DAVV) in Indore, India, discuss how environmental factors, known as exposomes, interact with genes to influence cancer risk. The authors highlight how pollution, diet, infections, and chronic stress can trigger genetic alterations that may lead to cancer. Understanding these connections could play a crucial role in cancer prevention and public health strategies. Genes store the instructions for how the body functions, but they can be damaged by harmful exposures. Polluted air, radiation, tobacco smoke, and processed foods can lead to DNA damage, interfering with the body's natural ability to repair itself. Over time, these genetic changes can increase the risk of cancer development. The authors emphasize that nearly everyone is exposed to cancer risk factors daily. “According to the Global Air Quality Guidelines of World Health Organization (WHO), nearly all of the global population (>99%) breathes polluted air that exceeds guideline limits.” For example, air pollution has been linked to lung cancer, while UV radiation is a leading cause of skin cancer. Processed meats contain harmful chemicals that can damage DNA, and excessive alcohol consumption has been shown to raise the risk of liver cancer by causing toxic buildup in cells. Even chronic stress and hormone imbalances can weaken the body's natural defenses against cancer by altering key genetic pathways. Infections also play a critical role in cancer risk. The Helicobacter pylori bacterium can cause stomach cancer by damaging stomach cells, while human papillomavirus (HPV) is strongly linked to cervical cancer. Other bacteria, viruses, and fungi can introduce genetic instability that contributes to tumor growth. Despite these risks, scientists estimate that up to 40% of cancers could be prevented through lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding harmful exposures. Advances in research technology are helping scientists better understand how environmental factors alter genes, leading to new strategies for cancer detection and prevention. “Understanding the exposome-gene-cancer research axis will have a significant impact on public health and the development of more effective strategies for prevention and treatment of diseases.” The editorial underscores the urgent need for greater public awareness and policy action to reduce exposure to harmful environmental risks. As scientists continue to explore the connection between exposomes and genetic changes, their findings could revolutionize public health efforts and cancer prevention strategies. By recognizing the long-term impact of environmental exposures, individuals, communities, and policymakers can take meaningful steps toward reducing cancer risk and promoting healthier environments for future generations.

About the Guest(s): Dr. Kristin Hieshetter is a distinguished chiropractor and host of Functional Health Radio. Known for her expertise in functional health and university-level teaching, Dr. Kristin is an advocate for natural wellness practices and reducing dependency on ultra-processed foods. She aims to enlighten listeners worldwide about holistic approaches to health, combining knowledge from chiropractic care, functional medicine, and neurology. As a leader in wellness, she is also at the forefront of creating an online educational platform, Functional Health Mastery, to guide providers interested in functional medicine. Episode Summary: Join Dr. Kristin Hieshetter in this enlightening episode of Functional Health Radio, recorded in January 2025. Embarking on a New Year journey, Dr. Kristin emphasizes awareness and action against ultra-processed foods, highlighting their negative impact on health. As a global leader in wellness, she uses her expertise to advocate for a proactive approach to health, focusing on simple, cost-effective lifestyle changes that can enhance the quality of life. Dr. Kristin unpacks the alarming reality of ultra-processed foods, using comprehensive studies and statistics that link these foods to increased cancer risks, including breast cancer. She paints a vivid picture of how pervasive chemicals in processed foods and environmental toxins create what she terms a "biochemical bruise," triggering unseen inflammation and health crises. Dr. Kristin calls for urgent dietary shifts, urging listeners to adopt perimeter shopping and focus on organic, whole foods to stave off these preventable diseases. Her advice extends to practical solutions, like assessing water quality through the Environmental Working Group and avoiding known carcinogens like titanium dioxide. Key Takeaways: Ultra-processed foods significantly increase the risk of cancer, particularly breast cancer, due to their high content of sugars, chemicals, and additives. Avoiding ultra-processed food and adopting organic, whole foods can drastically improve health and reduce chronic disease risk. Environmental toxins in air and water can contribute to a "biochemical bruise" that may lead to unexplained pain or inflammation. Awareness and proactive management of personal diet choices and environmental exposure can significantly impact health outcomes. The educational initiative Functional Health Mastery is launching to support providers interested in functional medicine education.

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.

In January 2025, the U.S. Surgeon General put out an advisory on alcohol and cancer risk, calling for cancer risk-warning labels on alcoholic beverages. The advisory said alcohol contributes to nearly 100,000 cases of cancer each year, and about 20,000 deaths each year.  The advisory also cited a 2019 study showing that alcohol is more closely linked to breast cancer than any other cancer. More than 44,000 breast cancer cases in 2019 were related to drinking alcohol, which was about 16% of the total number of breast cancer cases that year. Lifestyle medicine researcher Dr. Tracy Crane discusses alcohol and breast cancer risk, including how to stop thinking of a drink as a reward after a hard day. Listen to the episode to hear Dr. Crane explain: why there is no amount of alcohol that is considered safe or healthy why alcohol seems to increase cancer risk more in women than men how alcohol increases risk how we can start to change the culture around alcohol

Today's episode has been a long time coming. For years, more scientists and health influencers have claimed that even moderate drinking does serious damage to one's health. As someone who likes being healthy and also loves a glass of wine (or scotch), Derek really wanted to understand this issue more deeply. This week, he published a long article in The Atlantic about his research on the health effects of moderate drinking—meaning one or two drinks a night. In today's episode, he breaks down his research process and conclusions, sharing audio from his interview with Canadian health researcher Tim Stockwell, who is one of the most prominent skeptics of the supposed benefits of moderate drinking.
