In this episode of Ultra Life Today , Mark Lintern expands on the Cell Suppression Theory of cancer, exploring how fungal pathogens, metabolism, immune response, and inflammation may work together to shape tumor behavior.  The conversation dives into prevention, metabolic health, fasting, antifungals, and why supporting the body—not attacking it—may be the missing piece in cancer care.  This episo...

In Episode 2 of our 3-part series with Mark Lintern (author of The Cancer Resolution? and founder of Cell Suppression), we go deeper into the tumor microbiome and the explosive implications of finding fungal DNA inside tumors. We unpack the 2022 research examining ~17,000 tumors, where scientists found fungal signatures that weren’t random — they showed patterns by cancer type and even appeared to...

In Part 1 of our 3-part series, Mark Lintern (author of The Cancer Resolution?) challenges the conventional “somatic mutation theory” of cancer and introduces his “cell suppression” framework—a meta-model that attempts to explain why cancer behaves so consistently despite highly variable mutations. We explore: Why “random mutations” struggle to explain consistent cancer hallmarks Cancers with no c...

Can brain training help someone find joy again… after years of depression and trauma? In Part 3 (finale) with Dr. Josh Hersh of Transformative Medicine (Utah), we go deeper into why neurofeedback can create lasting change — and why Dr. Hersh still insists it works best when paired with root-cause medicine (gut health, infections, nutrition, sleep, stress, IV therapies, and more).
