35. How To Starve Cancer with Jane McLelland
Jane McLelland is a stage IV cancer survivor of 20 years who has made a road map that shows how to starve and kill cancers of many types. Her mission is to turn the oncology profession upside down. Since her remarkable recovery, Jane has been a staunch supporter of ‘off label’ drugs for cancer therapy (medicines used for other conditions than their approved licence). Using her medical knowledge and researching heavily, she put together a cancer-starving formula, using natural therapies, exercise and diet. When she developed a second cancer, leukaemia, the result of chemotherapy and radiotherapy for her first cancer, she knew she only had weeks to live. With nothing to lose, she put together a unique cocktail of old drugs. To her enormous relief, joy and surprise, her cancer just ‘melted away’. Her cocktail was more powerful than she had ever hoped. Today, Maria’s going in depth with Jane about her research, cocktail, and breakthrough information she’s gathered over years of research.

29. Game-Changing Cancer Therapy with Dr. Anahid Jewett
Dr. Anahid Jewett is a woman on a mission to find a cure for cancer. She is a Professor and Director of Tumor Immunology Laboratory and she is also a member of the UCLA Tumor Immunology subgroup, among others. For the past 26 years, Dr. Jewett has dedicated her life to figuring out why cancer stem cells (CSCs) are able to survive in patients. She believes the key is to focus on natural killer cells or NK cells, which are known to kill many different types of CSCs, including oral, pancreatic, lung, breast, glioblastoma, and melanoma tumors. To test whether NK cells could help minimize pancreatic cancer tumors, Dr. Jewett and her team developed a humanized mouse model with an intact human immune system. On this episode, she's discussing the available therapies, what her research is showing, and where we are in finding a cure.
