I’ve always had a curiosity for new technologies of curing diseases. While our diet, emotions, lifestyle all play a role in our health, I also believe that cutting edge technologies can help us live a healthier life.
When it comes to diseases like cancer, many feel powerless to the disease, and may spend time, energy, money on treatment like chemotherapy, radiation, which also has side effect to our bodies. Some may even argue that chemotherapy can potentially kill people. While I do not want to get into this debate, I’m more interested in alternatives.
What if there is a futuristic and holistic way of treating and reversing cancer, as well as other diseases? A way that doesn’t also kill healthy cells?
According to our guest today, everything on this planet gets cancer, from humans to primates to reptiles to trees to fish.
While our original genetic state is non cancerous, genetic and epigenetic events can cause damages at a level that is beyond our body’s natural repair mechanisms, leading to the process of oncogenesis: run-away malignancy, tumor growth, metastasis, and death.
But the interesting point is: Humans do not have the ability to naturally correct these tumorigenesis events on our own. But other species (the regenerators) do.
Ira Pastor, CEO of Bioquark, with over 30 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry, comes on the Deliciously Playful Lana – Health Secrets Made Simple Podcast to discuss the science behind combinatorial biologics for the regeneration and repair of human organs and tissues as a potential solution to cancer.
