During my conversation on Igniting the Spark with Stephanie James , we talked about something medicine still doesn’t address enough:

The connection between spirituality and health outcomes.

After nearly 30 years in practice, I’ve seen this clearly—
Patients who lose the fear of cancer and the fear of death often do better.

Not just emotionally… biologically.

And I’m not talking about religion.

I ask every patient:
“Do you feel connected to something greater than yourself?”

Because that connection influences stress, resilience, and how the body responds.

It’s time we start having this conversation in medicine.

Talking with Dr. Seyfried, we addressed a major issue in today’s market:

Not all supplements are what they claim to be.

Many are mislabeled.
Some are contaminated.

More is not better—
better is better.

The patients who do best aren’t waiting to be saved.

They’re asking questions.
They’re engaged.
They’re ready.

That shift—from “save me” to “teach me”—changes everything.
This is just a clip from my talk with Dr. Tom Seyfried More to come soon.

One of the most meaningful parts of my conversation on Igniting the Spark with Stephanie James was this:

Be kind… but don’t be afraid to question.

You are allowed to think differently about your health.
You are allowed to seek alignment.
And you are allowed to hold onto hope.

Because the moment hope is taken away… everything changes.

I’ve seen patients told there were no options go on to live for years—with quality of life and purpose.

I don’t promise outcomes.
But I will always stand for this:

We support the body.
We choose the best possible strategies.
And we never remove hope.

Find your tribe.
Find voices you trust.
And step into your role as your own advocate.

On Igniting the Spark with Stephanie James, we talked about something foundational to health that most people overlook: mitochondria.

What if I told you the same strategies used for cancer patients…
are also used by Navy SEALs and NASA astronauts?

It all comes down to mitochondrial health.

Your mitochondria drive your energy, resilience, and how your body adapts to stress.

The difference isn’t what we do.
It’s how we apply it—because it must be individualized.

That’s the missing piece in today’s health conversation.

I had a powerful conversation on Igniting the Spark with Stephanie James about one of the most misunderstood topics right now: intermittent fasting.

More is NOT better - especially for women.

I see so many people following influencer protocols that were never designed for their body, their hormones, or their stage of life. And that’s where things start to go wrong.

Everything we do, from fasting to exercise to supplementation, has to be personalized.

For example, a 5:2 approach (eating normally 5 days, reducing calories slightly 2 days) can support cardiovascular and metabolic health when done correctly. But pushing longer fasts without understanding your physiology? That can backfire.

We’re not all the same.
And your health plan shouldn’t be either.

The same mitochondrial principles used in high-performance environments - like Navy SEALs and NASA - are also what support long-term health and resilience.
But the application must be individualized.

This is where real medicine matters.

Not every clinician who claims to offer metabolic cancer therapy truly understands metabolic oncology.

In this reel, Dr. Seyfried and I break down how patients can better evaluate whether a provider is genuinely experienced in this space.

Key things to ask:

• How long have they practiced metabolic oncology principles?
• Can they explain the foundational science behind the mitochondrial metabolic theory?
• Do they individualize treatment plans or use the same protocol for everyone?
• How would they approach two patients with the same diagnosis differently?

Because true metabolic oncology is never one-size-fits-all—and patients should be cautious of vague answers, unrealistic promises, or “cookie-cutter” care.

Cancer care is evolving beyond a one-dimensional approach.

In this clip, Dr. Seyfried and I discuss the foundational pillars many clinicians consider when implementing metabolic strategies, including:

• Ketogenic nutrition
• Stress reduction
• Exercise
• Hyperbaric oxygen
• Targeted metabolic support

As the science advances, the goal is turning research into real-world clinical application.
