For years, many have believed that cancer is primarily genetic or just bad luck, but emerging research suggests we have far more control over our risk than previously thought. Dr. Thomas Seyfried's groundbreaking work reframes cancer as a metabolic dysfunction, focusing on its root cause rather than just treating symptoms. While controversial, this approach offers new hope for both practitioners and patients seeking alternative strategies for prevention and treatment.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, we’re bringing you a special compilation episode featuring Dhru’s conversations with Dr. Thomas Seyfried and experts from the Hippocrates Research Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to continuing Dr. Seyfried’s work by educating cancer patients on metabolic-based treatment approaches.
Dr. Seyfried explores the role of oxidative stress, mitochondrial health, and glucose in cancer development and progression, along with his research on ketogenic diets as a promising solution to correct these imbalances. Den Stacey shares his journey of seeking guidance from the Hippocrates Research Foundation—ultimately becoming cancer-free. The Hippocrates Research Foundation team—Daniel Orrego, Dr. Gregory Howard, and Dr. Michelle Howard—discuss their research and their approach to guiding cancer patients by implementing a protocol designed to starve cancer while fueling the body.
Dr. Thomas Seyfried is an American professor of biology, genetics, and biochemistry at Boston College. With over 150 peer-reviewed publications, his research focuses on the mechanisms driving cancer, epilepsy, and neurodegenerative diseases, as well as the role of calorie-restricted ketogenic diets in their prevention and treatment. He is the author of Cancer as a Metabolic Disease: On the Origin, Management, and Prevention of Cancer and serves on the editorial boards of Nutrition & Metabolism, Neurochemical Research, Journal of Lipid Research, and ASN Neuro.
