In the second episode of my podcast, I cover food additives and carcinogens. At the start of the episode, I give a scientific explanation of what carcinogens are and how they relate to our cells' ability to function and reproduce. I also include the three main problems that can lead to cancer in our cells: excessive glucose, high levels of certain hormones, and DNA damage. I look at different types of harmful chemicals in our food and discuss which harmful additives are banned in Europe vs. The United States. Finally, the episode ends with how we can avoid these harmful additives to help protect ourselves against cancer and health complications.
