Professor Thomas Seyfried is a professor of biology at Boston College and a leading researcher in cancer metabolism, he is saying that These common foods are feeding cancer cells and I am not surprised of that. Prof. Thomas Seyfried is best known for his book Cancer as a Metabolic Disease, where he argues that cancer is primarily caused by mitochondrial dysfunction rather than genetic mutations, and you should watch / listen him. Thomas Seyfried holds a Ph.D. in Genetics and Biochemistry and completed postdoctoral training in neurology at Yale University. His research focuses on metabolic therapies, including ketogenic diets, as potential treatments for cancer and neurological disorders. He has published over 150 scientific papers and is a prominent advocate for rethinking conventional cancer treatment approaches.
