Summary

This episode is brought to you by Athletic Greens and Eight Sleep. An astonishing seventy percent of cancer is diet-related. When it comes to treating cancer, conventional medicine is good at cutting it, burning it, and poisoning it, but many doctors fail to treat the root cause. Functional Medicine empowers patients and practitioners to optimize health by addressing the root causes of disease. In this episode of my new Masterclass series, I am interviewed by my good friend and podcast host, Dhru Purohit, about the cancer epidemic, including the biggest cancer risks.

His podcast, The Dhru Purohit Podcast, is a top 50 global health podcast with over 30+ million unique downloads.
