It is now believed that the average person carries the equivalent of a spoonful of microplastics inside their body — with emerging research suggesting significant accumulation in organs such as the brain. Yet despite growing scientific concern, microplastics remain largely ignored in conventional cancer care. In this episode of Outsmart Cancer, Dr. Dino Prato explains how microplastics function as...

What if your cancer didn’t begin as bad luck in your DNA — but was fueled by hidden infections your doctors never tested for? In this episode of Outsmart Cancer, Dr. Dino Prato explains how chronic, undiagnosed infections can weaken the immune system, drive inflammation, disrupt tumor-suppressor pathways, and make cancer more aggressive and resistant to treatment. While global estimates suggest ab...

If you’ve been told you have a KRAS mutation — or another so-called “undruggable” cancer gene — you may have been placed on a specialty inhibitor designed to slow the disease. And these drugs can be helpful. But there’s a critical truth most patients are never told: Most targeted cancer drugs are cytostatic, not cytotoxic. They slow cancer down — they don’t eliminate it. In this episode of Outsmar...

Something most cancer patients are never told: the radiation plan you receive is often influenced by the machine a hospital owns, not by what’s best for your cancer biology. Dr. Dino Prato breaks down the radiation wars — and introduces a disruptive technology that may change oncology entirely: ultrasound-based tumor destruction. Data shows that 40–50% of radiation therapy is palliative, meaning i...

Why do some cancer patients relapse even after surgery, chemo, and radiation — while others recover long-term? In this episode of Outsmart Cancer, Dr. Dino Prato, founder of Envita Medical Centers, explains the missing link most oncologists never talk about: DAMPS — Damage Associated Molecular Patterns. These are the danger signals cancer cells release when they die, and they determine whether you...

What if the best cancer treatment for you can’t be mass-produced?
