The Cancer Crisis [3:55]
The conversation shifts to healthcare, specifically the lack of progress in curing cancer. The speaker explains that conventional cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiation destroy natural killer cells, which are essential for the body's defense against cancer. He highlights that these treatments, while generating billions in revenue for big pharma and academia, ultimately harm patients by weakening their immune systems. The speaker mentions a newly approved treatment in 2024 that protects natural killer cells during radiation, showing promising results in bladder cancer patients.
Unlocking the Body's Potential [7:42]
The speaker discusses his efforts to make this new treatment available nationwide, seeking expanded access from the FDA and support from international partners. He shares that there were almost 10,000 requests for the treatment after Tucker Carlson show. He aims to make the treatment accessible in rural America and other underserved areas, not just major cities. The speaker also suggests the treatment could serve as a bio-shield, protecting against radiation, bioterrorism, and infections.
Overcoming Obstacles and the Cancer Moonshot [12:54]
The speaker questions why institutions like the NIH and private universities aren't embracing these new approaches. He attributes the problem to embedded dogma and reveals his experience with the Cancer Moonshot initiative under Vice President Biden, where his efforts were stifled. Despite lacking government funding, he has invested billions in developing this cancer treatment.

Hope for the Future [16:49]
