It mentions that cancer is now recognized as a metabolic disease and discusses various foods, drinks, and lifestyle factors that can impact our DNA, cells, and microbiome, including things like medicinal mushrooms, soft drinks, foods cooked at high temperatures, arsenic in rice, BPA in plastics, and the importance of detox and regeneration through diet. The document also references studies on artificial sweeteners and the gut microbiome.
