Cancer doesn’t come back by accident. In this episode of the Beljanski Cancer Talk Show, Dr. John Hall explains how cancer stem cells drive drug resistance, metastasis, and recurrence, and how specific plant extracts have shown activity against both bulk tumors and these treatment-resistant cells.

Dr. John Hall is the Director of Research at the Beljanski Foundation, where he leads scientific studies building on the work of molecular biologist Dr. Mirko Beljanski. He is a graduate fellow of Princeton University, earned his PhD in biochemistry from New York University, and served as an assistant professor at Rockefeller University in cell biology.

Dr. Hall has authored multiple scientific publications and patent applications in the field of cancer research. His work focuses on understanding how specific plant extracts interact with cancer cells, cancer stem cells, and treatment resistance, with an emphasis on efficacy, safety, and integrative approaches to cancer care.

Most cancer research never reaches patients in a clear, usable way. In this episode of The Beljanski Cancer Talk Show, Mark Taylor, Founder and CEO of Patient Led Oncology and the Hacking Cancer Research Portal, explains how artificial intelligence is helping organize and navigate cancer research for patients and doctors.

We explore how AI-powered research tools, integrative oncology insights, and clinical studies can help reduce information overload as cancer research continues to expand rapidly.

Mark Taylor is the Founder and CEO of Patient Led Oncology and the Hacking Cancer Research Portal, platforms focused on improving access to cancer research and helping patients and clinicians better understand available scientific evidence.

In this conversation, we discuss why so much cancer research never reaches patients, how AI can structure and interpret clinical studies, and how integrative oncology research is being cataloged and reviewed. The episode also touches on patient-led research, emotional health, and the challenges doctors face in keeping up with rapidly expanding medical knowledge.

This discussion focuses on education, research access, and decision support. It does not provide medical advice or treatment recommendations

What if treating cancer meant treating the whole person, not just the tumor?

In this episode of The Beljanski Cancer Talk Show, Sylvie sits down with Dr. Tony Jimenez, a physician who has spent more than 30 years practicing integrative oncology and caring for patients from around the world.

Dr. Jimenez shares the personal experiences that shaped his path, from his early years in medicine to a defining moment when his own father was diagnosed with cancer. That turning point led him away from a purely conventional track and toward an integrative approach that combines evidence-based medical care with immune support, nutrition, detoxification, emotional healing, and personalized treatment strategies.

You’ll hear how this philosophy comes to life at Hope4Cancer centers in Mexico, where patients receive individualized, whole-person care under one roof. Dr. Jimenez explains why emotional trauma is often an overlooked factor in illness, why immune function matters so much in cancer care, and how integrative oncology works alongside conventional medicine rather than replacing it.

He also walks through the thinking behind his books Hope for Cancer and Cancer Outsmarted, introduces the 7 Key Principles of Cancer Therapy, and explains the 11 Integrative Hallmarks of Cancer. Plus, he offers a preview of his upcoming book, Emotions and Cancer, which explores the connection between unresolved emotional stress and physical disease.

This conversation is educational, grounded, and deeply human, especially for patients, caregivers, and anyone seeking a broader perspective on cancer care.
