Dr. Avanti is joined by Dr. Nasha Winters, a leading figure in integrative oncology. They delve into Dr. Nasha's personal history with cancer and her 32-year journey exploring the relationship between her life story and biology. She highlights the dangers of common household items, noting that fragrances from plugins, scented candles, and dryer sheets can be more harmful than cigarettes. As their conversation unfolds, it becomes evident that treating cancer isn't just about targeting the tumor but understanding and nurturing the entire terrain, from our mitochondria and epigenetics to the toxins we're exposed to. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of cancer's complexities and the promising therapies on the horizon.
