Understanding Cancer's Metabolic Origins

Cancer metabolic origins

Featured Guest Speaker: Dr. Dickson Thom, DDS, ND

This year, an estimated 1.95 million people in the United States will hear the words, “You have cancer.” In fact, one in two men and one in three women will hear those three words at some point in their lifetime. What’s more, an estimated 609,000 people will die from cancer this year in the United States alone.

In this BioBites, you will learn:

  • The history of the metabolic theory of cancer
  • What you can do today to reduce your likelihood of getting a cancer diagnosis
  • The definition of “The Warburg Effect”
  • Why our current approach to treating cancer often results in a high rate of recurrence even long after the five-year mark 

If you have any questions you would like answered during this event, please email them to Jessica Frank, BioMed Program Manager, at [email protected].
