About this episode
In this episode, Dr. Jockers joins Dr. Michael Karlfeldt to explore how metabolic flexibility can reduce cancer risk and support healing. They discuss the importance of helping your body switch between burning glucose and fat for better health. You'll hear how fasting and time-restricted eating trigger autophagy, allowing the body to repair damaged cells. Lowering insulin levels plays a key role in activating this deep healing process. Dr. Jockers and Dr. Karlfeldt also explain how reducing insulin and growth signals like mTOR helps prevent uncontrolled cell growth. By using nutrition and fasting, they reveal how to create a healing environment that weakens cancer cells.
