Abstract Cancer research is increasingly shifting beyond purely genetic explanations toward models centered on metabolism and mitochondrial dysfunction. Two emerging frameworks are gaining attention: the metabolic therapy approach associated with Thomas Seyfried and the mitochondrial stem cell targeting strategy developed within integrative oncology. This review critically compares both approaches across biological rationale, therapeutic strategy, and available evidence. It also proposes a unified model that may better reflect the complexity of cancer biology while maintaining clinical realism and safety. 1. Introduction Despite major advances in oncology, outcomes for advanced cancers remain limited. Conventional treatments—surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy—primarily target tumor burden but often fail to prevent recurrence or metastasis. Two alternative but increasingly discussed frameworks attempt to address these gaps: Metabolic cancer therapy , which reframes c...

Are you overwhelmed by conflicting advice on cancer, diet, and supplements ? You’re not alone. With so many claims out there, it’s hard to separate fact from fiction . Can certain foods lower your cancer risk ? Are some foods increasing it without you realizing? What about vitamin and mineral supplements —do they help prevent cancer, or could they actually increase your risk ? The term " anti-cancer supplements " can be misleading. While some nutrients support the body in cancer prevention or treatment, others may interfere with therapies or even pose risks. There are presently over 1,500 herbs and food supplements in commerce, many of them with claims in use against cancer. This guide compiles over 500 scientific r...
