The environment within the body can "talk" to cancer cells. What do we want it to say? Dr. Wallace will introduce the concept of Oncometabolic Syndrome, a cluster of nutritional and metabolic factors that can influence the growth and progression of cancer. Discussion of dietary and nutritional strategies will be presented which can modulate these factors, thereby reducing the oncogenic potential of a tumor. Our focus will be on specific evidence-based foods, nutrients, and spices to quench inflammation, alter gene expression, and balance blood sugar in ways that can empower cancer patients to harness the power of nutrition to complement their medical care.
