Summary
Oasis of Hope was founded by Contreras’ father, Dr. Ernesto Contreras, Sr. in 1963, and since then the hospital has provided integrative cancer treatment for more than 100,000 patients.
As director, Contreras continues the practice of his father’s two fundamental principles – do no harm and treat the patient as yourself. Today, Contreras oversees the treatment of 800 cancer patients annually.
After graduating with honors from medical school at the Autonomous University of Mexico in Toluca, Contreras studied alternative therapy at the Oasis of Hope Hospital. He then completed his specialty in surgical oncology at the University of Vienna in Austria, where he also graduated with honors.
Contreras has authored and co-authored several books concerning integrative therapy, cancer and heart disease prevention and chronic illness, including “The Hope of Living Cancer Free,” “The Hope of Living Long and Well,” “Fighting Cancer 20 Different Ways” and “Dismantling Cancer.” His newest book The Art & Science of Undermining Cancer shares a revolutionary approach to cancer treatment that focuses on the patient, provides resources to the body, mind, and spirit, and leverages the metabolic traits of cancerous cells to undermine a tumor’s strength.
Topics covered in this episode:
Artificial Intelligence in Medicine

| 0:00.0 | Welcome everybody to the Lindsay Elmore show. This week I am going to be talking about |
| 0:04.3 | integrative and alternative and conventional approaches to the treatment of cancer. Cancer is so |
| 0:12.3 | scary and 1.9 million new cancer cases occur every single year in the United States with |
| 0:19.3 | approximately 600,000 cancer-related deaths happening annually. |
| 0:24.7 | We know that there are more than 17 million Americans who have a history of cancer. |
| 0:30.3 | And unfortunately, the treatments are out of date and very, very toxic and painful chemotherapy, radiation, surgery. |
| 0:42.8 | Until recently, we're all that we had. |
| 0:45.8 | Now we know that we also have immunotherapies and target therapies. |
| 0:49.9 | And my guest today, Dr. Francisco Contreras, he is the chairman of the Oasis of Hope Hospital and |
| 0:56.6 | treats more than 800 cancer patients every single year. |
| 1:00.7 | He is going to teach us about how we can use, yes, the conventional treatments of drugs |
| 1:07.5 | and surgery. |
| 1:08.9 | But we also are going to talk about ways that we can eat, ways that we |
| 1:13.2 | can exercise, ways that we can sleep, which not just help us to treat cancer, but also to |
| 1:22.3 | prevent it from happening in the first place. We're going to talk about how cancer cells are metabolically |
| 1:30.3 | fundamentally different from other cells in our body and how we can exploit that metabolic trait |
| 1:38.2 | to attack the cancer cells without doing such extreme damage to our normal tissues. |
| 1:46.0 | We are also going to talk about a very new cutting edge therapy, |
| 1:51.0 | which is the dendritic cell vaccine that can attack cancers, |
| 1:57.0 | and the way that it works is not what you would expect. |
| 2:01.6 | It's a fascinating show, everybody. |
| 2:03.8 | This is the Lindsay Elmore show. |
