On this week's episode, Rodney and Dr. Becker continue the cancer prevention conversation with Dr. Lily Chen, focusing on how we can take control of the environmental factors that influence cancer risk for our pets. They dive into the critical role of testing with insights on when to start testing for related cancer risks, and which screenings are essential based on your pet’s age and breed. From vitamin & mineral testing to biomarker screening, they share the latest research so you can address underlying issues before they become serious.
They'll also discuss the often-overlooked connection between emotional health and prevention. Learn how stress, lifestyle, and even the bond between you and your pet can impact both their immune system and yours.
