1 hour 14 minutes

Only 5–10% of cancers are inherited. The rest? Largely driven by diet, toxins, metabolism, and lifestyle.

What really causes cancer (hint: it’s not just DNA)

How fasting, keto, and oxygen therapies helped reverse aggressive diagnoses

The best diets for fighting and preventing cancer

Top anti-cancer herbs, supplements, and therapies

Why faith and emotional healing are crucial to recovery

This episode will open your eyes to the healing potential of holistic medicine, metabolic science, and spiritual hope. Whether you're facing illness or want to prevent it, you'll walk away empowered and equipped.
