Episode 274 - Food and Cancer: The Truth

Chadi sits down again with Dr. Urvi Shah for an in-depth, evidence-driven exploration of the often confusing relationship between food and cancer. They dive into how nutritional research is actually conducted—and why it’s so challenging—while separating widely regarded myths from what high-quality data truly support, including nuanced discussions on processed foods, red meat, plant-based diets, ketogenic diets, intermittent fasting, and alcohol use. Dr. Shah also offers practical, science-backed recommendations for cancer prevention in the general population, as well as thoughtful guidance on how patients might approach diet and lifestyle changes after a cancer diagnosis.
