Dr. Jocelyn Strand | Beta-Glucan, Cancer & Your Immune System's Secret Weapon
About this episode
Dr. Jocelyn Strand discusses the role of beta-glucan in enhancing the immune system's ability to combat cancer.
Your immune system already knows how to find and destroy cancer cells. The question is whether it's been given what it needs to do the job. In this episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Dr. Jocelyn Strand to dig into one of the most underutilized tools in cancer support: beta-glucan. They break down how the immune system actually identifies and clears cancer, why your innate immunity is far more trainable than anyone told you in medical school, and how a specific molecule from yeast cell walls has receptors waiting for it on your immune cells by design. Dr. Strand walks through the science of trained immunity, epigenetic changes triggered at the cellular level, and why beta-glucan may double the effectiveness of immunotherapy in treatment-resistant patients.
