In this episode I'm really excited to introduce you to Dr. Nasha Winters, who is author of the book "The Metabolic Approach to Cancer." She's a naturopathic doctor and founder of Metabolic Regen University and has created a metabolic approach to helping people prevent and address cancer and metabolic health disorders. I'm so glad she's here with me on How Humans Heal today. Because Dr. Nasha and I are both naturopathic doctors and graduated from naturopathic medical school at a similar time, our paths have crossed many times over the years. We are both passionate about sharing the message that health can be achieved by addressing the root cause of the health issue. We help patients figure out what's going on under the surface and help them understand what that means in terms of what they can implement to make a difference, especially related to cancer. Dr. Nasha's teaches around the world to both lay audiences and professional audiences, and created the Metabolic Regen University as a way to train clinicians in her approach to cancer. In this episode, Dr. Nasha shares her personal experience with ovarian cancer, how she healed herself, and how that inspired her to become a naturopathic doctor. We talk about high risk HPV related cancer, and cancer in general – how to think about it differently, and non-conventional ways to support healing. If you or someone you know is dealing with cancer, or at risk of cancer, this is an essential interview to listen to in your research process to identify alternative and integrative ways to prevent and address cancer, alongside conventional cancer treatment or if/when conventional approaches fail.

In the latest SI Voices podcast, host Hilary Ratcliffe speaks with Connie Mutunhu, former President of Soroptimist International Africa Federation (SIAF), about efforts to raise awareness of cervical cancer and expand access to the HPV vaccine for girls across Africa.Statistics provided by the World Health Organisation (WHO) state that cervical cancer is the second most diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women in Africa. Each year, around 80,000 women are diagnosed and 77,000 die—figures WHO calls unnecessarily high.To address this crisis, SIAF together with the Soroptimist International Clubs of Nairobi Central and Dubai Gulf (SIE), 'The Room', and the UN Health4Life Fund—has launched 'Let's Chat', an AI-powered digital tool that connects users with trusted health experts for personalised conversations.This is a long-term, large-scale public awareness programme. SIAF is working to establish mobile health clinics to reach underserved rural communities, while also producing leaflets in multiple languages and using social media to spread accurate information. Their efforts aim to dispel persistent myths—such as the false belief that the HPV vaccine causes infertility—which discourage families from vaccinating their daughters. Connie highlighted both the progress already made and SIAF's intention to build partnerships with Soroptimist Clubs outside Africa to strengthen ongoing efforts to prevent cervical cancer.

The question isn't which supplements to take—it's whether your body can absorb them. Most traditional supplements fall victim to stomach acid before delivering benefits. Purality Health's micelle liposomal technology creates a double-layer protective system that shields nutrients from stomach acid destruction while facilitating direct bloodstream absorption—making supplements up to 800% more effective. For perimenopausal and menopausal patients, I recommend their Vitamin D3 with K2 for bone density and mood regulation, and their exceptional magnesium formula for sleep and muscle tension.

Cervical cancer remains a significant public health concern, but innovative approaches and community-based research are transforming prevention efforts, particularly immigrant communities. With over 600,000 new cases diagnosed annually, early detection and prevention strategies are crucial. However, accessibility and awareness gaps persist in immigrant communities due to language barriers, cultural stigma, and limited healthcare access. Community-based research plays a pivotal role in bridging these gaps. In engaging local populations through culturally sensitive outreach ensures that prevention strategies are accepted and effective. University of Miami Chief Health Equity Officer, Dr. Erin Kobetz, discusses how integrating cutting-edge technology with community engagement, moves us closer to reducing cervical cancer incidence and mortality rates, fostering a healthier future for immigrant populations.

Story at-a-glance Gardasil's ability to prevent cervical cancer is being questioned, with experts citing a lack of long-term studies proving reduced cancer rates While Gardasil targets specific HPV strains, concerns exist that it allows for the emergence of other harmful strains, thus canceling the vaccine's intended benefits Reports of severe side effects, including heart complications and even deaths, raise serious safety concerns, warranting caution The vaccine's aggressive marketing, despite the proven effectiveness of regular pap smears, suggests Gardasil's benefits have been exaggerated while risks have been downplayed Lawsuits alleging that Merck concealed risks and overstated Gardasil's efficacy are underway, casting doubt on the company's transparency and raising trust issues regarding pharmaceutical marketing

In this episode I'm going to be covering 5 foods to include in your diet to help clear high risk HPV and prevent HPV-related cancers such as cervical and vaginal cancer. I know how confusing it can be to figure out what to eat and what not to eat. Once you realize that the food you feed your body each day can be your medicine and actually help prevent health issues, you start to understand the importance of choosing foods that will do the most good for you. I'm Dr. Doni Wilson, a naturopathic doctor, clinical nutritionist, and midwife. I've been practicing for over 25 years and specialize in women's health, particularly helping women with abnormal pap smears as well as humans with various different stress-related health issues. I want to emphasize that the food choices I'll be mentioning here will help your overall health. It's not that they only help with abnormal pap results or high risk HPV. When we choose these foods, they help our whole health. Most often, when women test positive for high risk HPV, they are also dealing with other health issues in their body—whether that's digestive issues, skin issues, weight issues, anxiety, depression, mental health issues, sleep issues, autoimmunity, hormone imbalances, or other health concerns. The foods I'll cover in this video will help with any and all of these health issues. Our priority is to choose foods to help support your immune system protect you from high risk HPV so you can clear it to negative and prevent it from coming back again. We're here to help!

Today, a story that starts small and private, with one woman alone in her bathroom, as she makes a quiet, startling discovery about her own body. But that small, private moment grows and grows, and pretty soon it becomes something so big that it has impacted the life of every person reading this right now… and all that without the woman ever even knowing the impact she had. We originally aired this story back in 2010, but we thought we'd bring it back today, as questions about bodily autonomy circle with renewed force.EPISODE CREDITS: Reported by - Rebecca SklootSignup for our newsletter!!

The SpaceX rocket carries lunar landers from companies based in Texas and Japan. They could arrive at the moon in the coming months. HPV can cause a variety of cancers, including cervical. New mortality data for women under 25 point to the success of the HPV vaccine.Rocket Launches With Lunar Landers From 2 Private CompaniesOn Wednesday, a SpaceX rocket launched carrying payloads from two separate private companies hoping to achieve lunar landings. The pair of landers—one from Japanese company ispace, and one from Texas-based Firefly Aerospace—will take months to reach the moon. Firefly's lander is scheduled to arrive first, in March, with ispace's lander planned for a touchdown in late May or early June.Another SpaceX launch on Thursday, a test flight of the company's Starship system, had mixed results. The booster returned to earth and was successfully “caught,” but the spacecraft exploded over the Caribbean shortly after launch. That explosion is under investigation.Jason Dinh, climate editor at Atmos in Washington, D.C., joins Ira to talk about the Wednesday launch and plans for private lunar exploration. They also discuss other stories from the week in science, including the ban of Red Dye #3 an AI approach to snake antivenom, and a study predicting a rise in US dementia cases by 2060.As Cervical Cancer Deaths Plummet, Experts Credit HPV VaccineIn 2006, a vaccine for the human papillomavirus (HPV) became widely available to adolescents. HPV is the most common sexually transmitted infection, and it can cause cancers of the mouth, throat, and sexual organs. It's also the cause of nearly every case of cervical cancer.Now, almost 20 years after the HPV vaccine was introduced, a study published in JAMA noted a 62% drop in deaths due to cervical cancer in women under 25 in the US: from 50 or 60 deaths per year to 13. This follows earlier research that noted a decrease in cervical precancer and cancer since the introduction of the vaccine.With HPV vaccine uptake at about 60% for adolescents aged 13-15, a higher uptake could virtually eliminate cervical cancer, experts say. However, childhood vaccination rates have dwindled since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, sparking concerns about the spread of preventable disease.Joining Flora Lichtman to talk about this latest study is lead author Dr. Ashish Deshmukh, professor of public health sciences and co-leader of the Cancer Prevention and Control Program at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, South Carolina.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.
