Excellent talk complicated scientific information made very simple. very useful for the drs and cancer patients Do you get the follow up of the patients ??
As an oncology nurse who gave chemo for 30 yrs, we were taught to tell patient to not eat fresh fruits and vegetables... because of the risk on bad bacteria on veggies and fruit ... it makes me so incredibly sad at the lack/ misguided info we had.
I love this video I have been following Dr. Li since being diagnosed in 2020 with metastatic bone, Mets breast cancer… I do everything to have a healthy gut and I do believe that’s why I’ve been on the first line of treatment since my diagnosis… He is an amazing person. I just love all of his videos. They have been so helpful for me on my journey… I wish more doctors knew about health every time I ask someone what to eat or what to do they just said keep doing what you’re doing with no real actual input. Very frustrating as a cancer patient I think sometimes they were just thinking I should be happy to be alive with stage four lol but I plan on living another 20 years! God willing.❤
For some, this can be confusing. if cancer thrives on sugar, fruits are packed with sugar and I’m wondering how fruit sugar is different from regular sugar?
So wonderful to see these guys being open and exploring other options with Cancer. I had the unfortunate experience with one horrible Doctor when I was getting ready to have breast cancer surgery. I just happened to mention that I was also working with nutrition and diet to support my recovery, this Dr then waits till all the other staff left the room, then he said to me, "You're going to die, no nutritionist will help you, you're just going to die." He repeated this about 6 times. I was shocked at his ignorance about how powerful the spoken word is especially coming from a perceived authority figure and his lack of knowledge regarding the role of diet and nutrition in cancer recovery.
Jeez! That's horrible, how could anyone say that to you, to a patient? I would have screamed & had everyone come running so I could tell them what he said.😢 I'm glad you're alive!🙏🏾
Very grateful for all the scientists and health care professionals who are thinking outside the box when it comes to cancer treatments. Dr. Li's work is a huge eye opener. Another scientist I listen to A LOT is Dr. Thomas Seyfried. That information is WOW, priceless. Would be amazing if they'd find a way of working together and educate both doctors and patients.
Thank you. This channel has been great. My wife is BRCA1, stage IV PDAC in remission for the last 9 months on PARP. She did 17 months of Folfirinox (standard is 12 cycles). I believe the idea of practicing “healthcare” in between visits helped get her strong enough to receive and respond well to chemo. I’ve watched you and read Dr Li’s book “eat to beat disease” and I feel like it’s helped my wife recover. Thank you for this channel.
This conversation is encouraging. Thank you both. I've been diagnosed with cancer of the urethra. I pray my condition doesn't lead to radical surgery, as recommended.
The thing I would like to hear is seyfried and li discuss insulin spiking foods. Li seems to be ok with them where as seyfried seems to be focused on blood sugar and ketone levels.
“How did I get cancer? Why me???” I’ve asked that question so many times. I’m 35, pregnant, physically active, and I eat well (clean keto) … such a crazy time!! Thank you for this information ❤️
@@ALHack29 they’ve got me on 4 rounds of a less dense course of “the red Devil” chemo. I get a treatment every 3 weeks, next one being 2/2. I still have my hair, didn’t experience any nausea, or vomiting. I did have mild chills, fatigue, & several days of constipation but it’s hard to tell what’s a chemo side effect and what’s a pregnancy side effect. I hope this helps ❤️
if you want learn parts related normal people jump to 53 minutes pear fiber , pomegranate, concqurate grape, cranberry. other parts is two doctor talking to doctor each other .
I have stage 4 lung cancer and started Keytruda treatment and the lumps in my lymph nodes are gone in 2 treatments. I am hoping for a few more years. Thank you for your info.❤❤
I had about 6 treatments Ketruda, every 3 wks also. They stopped it due to the tumors came back and multiplied - melanoma in thigh/groin area. Consider yourself lucky. I was always healthy otherwise, go figure. I don't even drink soda or eat fast food. All I can contribute to my health failure is inactivity and too much sugar. I have a sit down job at home and was always craving sweets. Hope you continue to recover. I am now looking at possible spread or new cancer to my pancreas. Going for biopsy this week.
I was surprised that so much emphasis was placed on TP53 and LFS as this is something that’s not often mentioned on similar podcasts. Thank you for touching up on this as this is something very close to home
I Love Dr. William Li's Podcasts 😅 Because I am a Lt Breast CANCER survivor, AML Leukemia & Now with a leak Heart ❤️ Patient... YES, My Health Is Vital To Me ❤🙏💚
Ive got b cancer the vax n then chemo and now leaky heart valve so I'm trying to use food to help finding keto hard to stick to as I like carbs and beans peas nchick pea s n veg green but find it hard
Dr juneja what a informative podcast. Dr Li is also a person who explains his findings in a way that we non medically educated people around the world can understand how and why we should think about what We should put in our mouth. I was amazed ti find that the first place we put on fat is our tongue muscle.
I have been a yogi for 20 plus years. Due to illness I've been struggling to get back to fitness. This has to be the best all round session I've found. I have done it most mornings since Feb 24 and feel so much stronger and flexible. Sometimes it's not about hard dynamic poses. It's going back to the foundation and being consistent 🙌 I throw in more challenging poses and modify as I go depending on how my body feels each day. Thank you Charlie ❤
Thank you so much for all this wonderful content! I am in between a series of testing - whicht culminated in a lymph node excision that came back with a diagnosis of non-Hodgkins follicular lymphoma grade 3A - and my first visit with an oncologist. Fully realizing I cannot possibly know as much as he does, it is still empowering to have information like this to help me formulate intelligent, pertinent questions and be a better advocate for myself. Dr. Li said that patients inevitably come back with the question of what WE can do to help ourselves, but since there are often wait times to get to the specialist, content like this can give us a head start on making the changes needed to improve our health and well-being and increase our odds of successful treatment.
The main problem with a cancer diagnosis is the doctors make you think everything has to happen immediately, surgery, radiation and chemo or you will die. That was my experience I was in a surgeons office within 4 days of diagnosis, she said I needed a mastectomy and to remove all the lymph nodes on the right side of my body. I told her STOP. THIS IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!! I left her office determined to figure it out without further mutilation after the biopsy.( The most barbarak process I have ever been through by the way) Going on 6 years later I'm still here, not cured but feeling fine and still trying to find exactly what works for me in this situation. Take a minute to breathe, figure out what you resonate with most, cut out most if not all prepackaged foods, breads, sweets and pastas. Check into spices that help to kill cancers, do your research before making any decisions.
Dear @lovelight9164 , I am so happy for you! Good job advocating for yourself! I saw the oncologist last week, and he said not to treat at this time. Follicular lymphoma is a slow growing (indolent) cancer, but we also don't currently have a cure. He said no treatment unless/until I have symptoms. We will monitor regularly. He has requested additional tests because of some anomalies in my current test results that may relate to breast cancer from 7 years ago. I have altered my diet drastically since June, doing all the things you recommend, but I still appreciate the sound advice. Thank you.
The interaction was so informative.Dr.Sanjay u are doing a great job.but, I feel,Dr.Li would get sufficient time without interrupted. He was explaining about chronic inflammation which went incomplete with interruption.
Love this episode! Dietitians can be helpful with helping your clients with diet! Some dietitians specialize in nutrition for cancer. Flavorfully yours, Stacy - registered dietitian
IM 42... FROM CHICAGO...LIVING IN ATL....I LIVED A VERY "COLORFUL" LIFE GROWING UP IN THE HOOD IN CHICAGO....ALL THE ALTERCATIONS AND LIFE THREATENING EVENTS THAT I HAVE FACED DIDNT SCARE ME THE WAY THE DOCTORS DID WHEN THEY TOLD ME I MIGHT HAVE CANCER LAST WEEK.... WAITING ON THE BIOPSY RESULTS...SCARED AS FUQQ 4 REAL....🚫🧢
This is great but I look forward to the day when these discussions go further than just what you eat, or sleep, or exercise but how you think. Feel! Emotions. Holistic health means taking the whole human into account since how we think has practical influence on our eating choices but our ailments are our bodies letting us know what we're not adequately addressing emotionally.
absolutely! Our emotions are such an important factor in our health. I am already amazed they are at least talking about nutrition. Mainstream medical science doesn't teach preventative medicine anymore, the emphasis is so much on drugs to "cure". How else will the big pharma make money. I recently heard a prominent doctor say - there is no evidence that herbs can heal any condition, like seriously?! They should look at some research outside of their circle once in a while.
Yes, I agree that a positive attitude and laughing can ward off cancer and other diseases. Not that I've got any medical training, it's just my theory.
I wish you had let the doctor finish what he was saying about his mother !!! I have no idea what you were going on about or why you felt it was important enough to interupt him. It's so frustrating !!!
Great video!! I love Dr Li and appreciate his dietary approach. Having both IBD and cancer it’s a real conundrum and balancing act. I don’t digest most plant based foods, definitely no raw. It flares the IBD. But I also follow Dr Seyfried, who has also been on your podcast, and his metabolic approach to cancer and following a ketogenic diet, but according to my gastro dr I should be eating low fat and low fiber to keep the IBD in check. So between the two dietary approaches I’m really between a rock and a hard place. It’s overwhelming and frustrating.
Perhaps you’d like to check out Dr. Eric Berg and Dr. Sten Ekberg. They are both on RU-vid. Most likely going on the Keto way of eating lifestyle will eliminate your IBD as it may be due to glutens and sugars, BUT I’m certainly not an authority, but they are. I’ve learned so much from them. There are so many testimonials of the positive and curative outcomes for so many going on keto, or even the carnivore lifestyle.
Harvard Chan School of Public Health: Most canola is chemically extracted using a solvent called hexane, and heat is often applied which can affect the stability of the oil's molecules, turn it rancid, destroy the omega-3s in it, and can even create trans fats. “Cold-pressed” canola oil exists but is very expensive and hard to find.
Nope ! They don't...I tried a New Oncologist over a month ago...he held my hand & told me THEY would do what they could to make me " comfortable " but I was too weak for CHEMO & they said they would not do immunology w/ o doing CHEMO first , then he said I hope u have lots of $$. Will not be going back to him!
Bizarre! But that is the MONEY influence. As time goes on I believe that this new methodology will eventually win out, but it will be a battle. Money talks. Loudly. Keep the faith and stay on the path.
l love Dr Pius Ozigbe! My daughter and I loved watching him and his sister in operation Ouch and his "Dr who gave up drugs" He seems like such a genuine, empathetic, no bullshit guy who genuinely cares and makes complex issues easy to understand for the lay person.
My grandmother's lived til 91 & 89. Ate white bread, lard, but no cokes no fast food. They had no studies in nutrition. Did home gardens but never heard the word "organic"& yes they are sweets without worry.
White bread of the past had been fortified with potassium iodide. Along came the greed - "The medical industry needed people to reduce the amount of iodine as it interfered with the effectiveness of patented radioactive iodine." So they released one negative study concerning iodine. And the media ran with it. And bakers started using patented bromide which competes with needed iodine. Anyway we are all the sicker for it. And your grandmother grew up with the good stuff which set the basis for her good health.
My grandparents lived long lives too, but they ate of the land most times, raised their own chickens, fresh eggs, ate meat from local butchers that raised their own pigs, beef. Grew vegetables in their yards including pigeon peas, pomegranate, bananas, avocado tree, you name it. My grandparents NEVER visited a fast food restaurant, ex: a McDonald's, pizza hut, Burger king, Popeyes to name a few. So we can't compare that life to the processed foods we are having now a days. With so much pollution everywhere including farms it is hard to avoid the damage. They lived in Puerto Rico back in the day when things were simple. They were born 1898, 1910 and the other one 1900. Those were the days 😊😊😊😊
Hi, please let your guess like Dr. Li talk. Too many times you cut him off to agree with him and sometimes about your personal situation. You had good questions and comments Dr. Sanjay. Please let the guess get to the end of the sentence before you cut in. Great stuff and pod cast. Get him back soon. Thanks, The Bobbyman
I’m sorry, you have a great guest, and it’s wonderful to hear two Drs converse like this. But when a long continuous thought process you have, at times, it completely distracts me as a viewer. Love Dr Li who really seems to want to help the common man understand the goings on within our bodies.
Come on now.. the target cancer announcer in my opinion. has input aside from the ?'s ..that add to the topic discussion. Most announcers do this n it's added input Maybe after this review u placed on him. He will make some adjustments if feels needed. I think I'm like that myself. I try not but I feel I need to be be thorough when I'm in discussions. I'm a senior senior Gt' G'ma up in age..
Dr. Sanjay talks TOO fast and interrupts Dr. Li too much. Dr. Sanjay goes off on a tangent which is distracting. Next time, please let your guest speak without a lot of interruptions.
I hate clickbait titles. I’m over 3/4 the way through the video and you are still not talking about how foods affect cancer treatments. The only thing you talk about is how cancers form and why we don’t get more cancers.
This video has valuable information about eating right to prevent cancer. Unfortunately there has.been unnecessary interruptions now and then by the host.
Diagnosed with mtnbc I also had high PDL1 and three immunotherapy treatments my cancer is gone. Amazing!! Stage 4 of the worst breast cancer to no cancer. I pray it doesn't return. Thank you for you video!
Three rounds of abraxane and keytruda. It was early stage. It had returned 1 year after treatment of surgery and chemo and radiation. Will keep doing amunotherpy as long as I can.
An analogy for what Dr. Li said about how our immune system used to be understood to how it is now better understood: the old view was that it was our army, only concerned with fighting foreign invaders, but in reality it is also the internal police force, taking out cells that have gone bad and become a danger to the whole.
A whole foods plant forward diet, with good fats, and low sugar. Only good quality olive oil, MCT oil, and coconut oil. Quinoa, oats, berries, nuts, omega 3’s: chia seeds, flax seeds, hemp seeds. Dark leafy greens, purple sweet potato, edamame, lentils. It’s not complicated. Just stick to food that is not processed.
Now that I am enjoying all these fresh fruits vegetables fish nuts seeds legumes teas etc . Some that seem to be eaten daily like kiwis and legumes. I’m so full trying to get enough of what we need. I live alone so it seems that I need to shop every day to prepare. Any easy way to simplify.
Dr Juneja , please do not talk too fast as we are just ordinary people trying to understand the medical terminologies that’s actually our first time to hear . Dr Li thank you so much for what you do .
Hello dear Doctor Your lessons are really interesting and crucial,i do appreciate your job,i wish you peace and happiness under the sky of prosperity,all the best. Take care and have a good time. Your Student from Algeria
My sister was told NOT to eat broccoli( which kills cancer stem cells/cancer),Vitamin C or zinc(which would have helped wound healing from Lee's double mastectomy,which wasn't healing).That might've helped with the cancer too. A lot of "family"BS that started with Lisa's BIPOLAR issue.Lee wasn't talking
@23:45ish Cancer doesn't starve due to lack of oxygen, it doesn't need oxygen, it grows by fermentation mechanism. I think. Fascinating!! Obsessed and listened every second of this conversation ❤ PS: Please let your guest finish explaining in his own flow and interrupt only after he is done with his lines. This got really annoying.... to be honest. Sorry
before ppl get the very wrong idea that sunlight is unhealthy because it was mentioned refering to causing dna damage .... there is a very interesting vid on the topic of full spectrum light that u should know about
With respect for the host also being a doctor, I was wishing that he would have let the expert explain things in his clear way without interrupting with his personal experiences
I totally agree 💯 💯 , I don’t want to skip what he is saying because I came to listen to Dr Li. I understand if it’s short but he talks long and keeps interrupting and talking and talking. No disrespect but please talk less and let the Dr Li talk , each time you cut in we miss what Dr Li would give us gems. I respect your videos and your background in medial school but we came to listen Dr. Li respectfully and if you have personal questions you could ask him privately ( just a thought ) but please take note and talk less and don’t cut specially when you have Dr Li or someone like him because we as the public need the education and need to listen to him. We didn’t get to hear about “pear “ that you wrote on your video.
I bought Akkermansia Muciniphilia-containing probiotic off of Amazon and took that during immunotherapy and my tumor was wiped out. Do you really need to try and get it through pomegranates?
