In this insightful video, Professor Thomas Seyfried challenges the conventional view that cancer is primarily a genetic disease. Drawing from decades of research, he explains why cancer should instead be understood as a mitochondrial metabolic disease—one driven by disruptions in cellular energy production. He also discusses how dietary choices can influence cancer risk and highlights some of the foods and lifestyle habits that may help create an environment in which cancer cells struggle to thrive.
