Metabolic Flexibility: Integrative Oncology in Action

The Nutrition Collective are hosting the world’s top experts in the field of Metabolic Flexibility: Integrative Oncology in Action.

Cancer shows a high degree of metabolic flexibility reacting to cues, and stresses in their microenvironment. In simplistic terms cancer cells have an innate ability to switch between utilising sugar or fat as a fuel source – enabling them to be metabolically flexible.

You will learn the latest research and knowledge about potential strategies you can use in your practice, understanding metabolic dependencies as a therapeutic approach to cancer care.

How is this conference different?

This is a cancer conference like no other because this is the first time the focus has been on metabolic flexibility as a solution in integrative oncology care. It is an exciting topic as one which has frustrated therapeutic interventions in the past, the metabolic adaptability of tumours. If cancer cells operate with metabolic flexibility, to optimise treatment strategies we as professionals need to understand this and come up with approaches that target cancer and are metabolically flexible too, to outsmart cancer. The conference will be an opportunity to delve deeper into the approaches these experts use in their practice to support cancer clients, giving you practical and transferable knowledge for your clinics.
