Episode 3: Cancer

Episode 3: We define cancer and explore its development at the genetic level, focusing on the key mutations that drive different cancer types. Much like diabetes and heart disease, cancer is significantly influenced by insulin levels. We discuss how cancers are increasingly defined by their molecular profiles rather than just their location in the body—a shift that has transformed both diagnosis and treatment. We also examine the impact of lifestyle factors on cancer risk and the rise of personalized medicine. Finally, we cover modern therapies, including targeted treatments and cutting-edge immunotherapies, that are offering new hope in the fight against cancer
