Podcast #107 Description by Mark Hyman, MD Cancer is a topic that hits close to home for almost everyone. If you’re not the one in three diagnosed with cancer, you likely know someone who is. While there are a lot of unknowns when it comes to cancer, treatments, and prognosis, there’s also a lot we are learning every day that helps to increase survival rates. With experts like Dr. Ralph Moss leading the way in uncovering the best approach for cancer treatment, we are well on our way to find hope in any diagnosis. On today’s Broken Brain Podcast, our host, Dhru, talks to Dr. Moss who has been at the leading edge of scientific investigative journalism for over forty years. His latest book, Cancer, Incorporated, is a blistering critique of the greed and lies of the cancer drug business, and shows how Big Pharma’s deceptions have caused suffering and cost lives. Dr. Moss has independently evaluated conventional and non-conventional cancer treatments all over the world to produce Moss Reports. These unique documents give readers an unbiased and in-depth look at conventional and alternative treatment options for most common cancer types. In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Moss discuss the long and controversial history behind conventional and unconventional cancer treatments, the increased prevalence of cancer diagnoses, the various causes of cancer, and every day things we can do to reduce our risk.
