Quick Answer: The ROOT Protocol is a tiered, nutraceutical-based cancer-prevention framework developed by Dr. Paul Marik and Dr. Justus Hope. It begins with a three-agent foundation — green tea EGCG, curcumin, and vitamin D3 — and adds omega-3s, berberine, and sulforaphane in higher tiers. The top tier, Root 9, adds the prescription drugs celecoxib, ivermectin, and mebendazole, and is scoped by its own authors to people with hereditary cancer syndromes under specialist supervision, not general use. It is best understood as a supplement escalation ladder layered on top of the diet and lifestyle foundation described in OneDayMD's I-PREVENT Cancer Protocol .

Cancer treatment is evolving faster than ever. From cutting-edge immunotherapies to AI-driven diagnostics, the discoveries of 2026 are reshaping how clinicians detect, monitor, and treat malignancies. These breakthroughs offer hope for longer survival, improved quality of life, and personalized therapies tailored to each patient. The 2026 American Association of Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting took place in San Diego from April 17-22 and reflected how cancer research continues to evolve. Progress is increasingly driven by how advances across biology, technology, and policy come together to shape how we understand disease, develop new treatments, and bring them into practice. A central theme this year was the continued focus on cancer as more than just a collection of tumor cells. It is shaped by a complex ecosystem — immune cells, surrounding tissue, metabolism, and even the microbiome — all interacting in dynamic ways. Credit:  Statista 1.

Cancer was once viewed as a disease that rarely surfaced in younger individuals, but today, that assumption no longer holds. So, what makes the current cancer trend so alarming? This, along with other topics, was discussed by Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, a surgeon and businessman, in an interview with Tucker Carlson, featured below. Most arguments about cancer center on genetic predisposition or external carcinogens like cigarettes. That conversation has merit, but it misses a key piece of the picture — your body's own immune defenses. The bigger story involves strengthening the body's protective mechanisms, and avoiding repeated hits to those defenses that allow cancer cells to take hold. Investigating the Root Cause Younger individuals once escaped the worst forms of cancer, but that has changed. Soon-Shiong tells the story of a case of a 13-year-old with metastatic pancreatic cancer, which in the past was basically unheard of. A growing body of clinical observation suggests t...
