DOCTOR’S NOTE

This is the first video in a three-part series on cancer metastasis. The next two are:

• How to Help Control Cancer Metastasis with Diet
• The Food That Can Downregulate the Metastatic Cancer Gene

This reminds me of my video Cholesterol Feeds Breast Cancer Cells. I’ve got scores of other cancer videos, and if you’re looking for a good overview, check out How Not to Die from Cancer.
