Chemicals and Cancer: Kristina Marusic, Environmental Health Journalist

The Cancer Pod: Integrative Medicine Talk

Kristina Marusic, author of 'A New War on Cancer,' discusses her motivation and research into the chemicals contributing to rising cancer rates. Tina and Leah cover a lot of ground in this interview. She discusses the pitfalls of individual responsibility. She talks about a system that permits the use of known carcinogens. She also covers what can be done to push the agenda toward a healthier place for all of us. Did you know that of the over 300,000 industrial chemicals invented in the last century, only five have ever been taken off the market in the USA? Neither did we! Hit play and join us for an enlightening and hopeful discussion!
