    Donate to the Nicholas Gonzalez Foundation so we can fund the research needed to advance this work.Apply to work with one of our Certified Gonzalez Doctors here. We always hear the term “alternative” medicine… but alternative to what?The 1899 Merck Manual listed herbs, plant compounds, cannabis, and nutritional therapies as accepted medical treatments, and almost none of them disappeared because they stopped working.My guest is Dr. Colin A. Ross, MD, a psychiatrist, researcher, and founding board member of the Nicholas Gonzalez Foundation, who has published scientific articles on the Gonzalez Protocol® and the trophoblast model of cancer.My late husband, Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez, used to say there is no alternative medicine, only medicine that hasn't been accepted yet. That line sits at the center of this conversation.We get into the history of how the word "alternative" became code for flaky, who benefits from that framing, and why nutrition got pushed to the margins of medical training. Dr. Ross shares what he was actually taught about nutrition in medical school, what the data on statins and vitamin D really show, and how patented "natural" drugs reveal the financial logic underlying it all.This isn't a rejection of modern medicine. It's a closer look at the labels, the language, and the economics shaping what patients are even allowed to consider.You'll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[3:19] Why "alternative" really means flaky, fringe, and unscientific in mainstream medical culture[5:01] How the Flexner Report and big pharma money rewrote what counts as real medicine[7:18] The American diet is driving disease, and what public health actually fixed[9:15] The 20-minute nutrition lecture that defined an entire generation of doctors[12:44] The St. John's wort study that matched Zoloft and why nobody talked about it[18:09] How the big lie works and what the pandemic revealed about medical propaganda[22:35] Why doctors chase your LDL while ignoring the vitamin D deficiency in two-thirds of Americans[27:49] Behind the scenes of the Nicholas Gonzalez Foundation and the funding it still needsResources Mentioned:The Trophoblast and the Origins of Cancer: One Solution to the Medical Enigma of our Times by Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez | BookCollection of Books by Our Patients | BooksFind more from Dr. Ross:The Colin A.

    17: What Long-Term Cancer Survivors Have in Common: Dr. Sarper Diler MD
    Jun 16 2026

    Apply to meet with a Certified Gonzalez Doctor like Prof. Dr. Sarper Diler here.


    If you're the kind of patient who tries something for two weeks and then switches when you read a new article at 2 AM, this conversation is about you.


    Two patients can walk in with the same diagnosis, the same stage, similar treatment plans, and end up in completely different places. The cancers vary. The stages vary. But across pancreatic, breast, lung, lymphoma, leukemia, melanoma, colon, and prostate cancer, certain patterns keep showing up among the people who outlive expectations, and they're not the patterns most people would guess.


    My guest in this episode is our lead doctor, Prof. Dr. Sarper Diler, MD, a member of the Medical Council for the Ovatel Institute and a certified Gonzalez doctor. He's spent years watching what separates long-term survivors from patients who decline quickly.


    What he describes isn't dramatic; it's more subtle than that. Decisiveness instead of dabbling. Consistency instead of intensity. Treating the body as a system instead of chasing the tumor alone. He's blunt about what derails people, too. Protocol hopping. Scan panic. Family doubt. Quitting during healing reactions. Trying everything at once until nothing reads as a clean signal.


    If you've been told outcomes are mostly random, this conversation will challenge that. The patterns are there. Whether you act on them is the real question.


    You’ll Learn:


    [0:00] Introduction

    [5:10] The decisive moment that separates survivors from passive patients

    [7:52] Why shrinking the tumor isn't enough if the terrain stays the same

    [12:10] How functionally malnourished patients are starving despite eating perfectly

    [15:57] The warning patterns that show up in poor outcome cases

    [17:13] How protocol hopping and family doubt derail healing

    [23:13] Why fear-driven decisions create instability and six-months-too-late commitments

    [27:15] Healing reactions, scan panic, and social pressure: the three sabotage points

    [30:05] The spreadsheet patient running 14 protocols and going nowhere

    [32:56] Why strategy is not the opposite of hope, it's how hope becomes a plan

    16: What Patients Say After a Cancer Diagnosis: Fear, Myths, and Hard Truths with Dr. Andre Williams
    Jun 9 2026
    Ready for a different conversation about your cancer care? Apply to be on The Gonzalez Protocol® and meet a doctor who listens first.Saying "sugar feeds cancer" sounds protective, but it's the kind of half-truth that makes patients weaker, thinner, and harder to heal.Most patients walk into their first oncology appointment already terrified of the treatment before they understand their own diagnosis. This episode is about what's driving that fear, and what changes when a patient slows down, gathers real information, and asks better questions before making a decision they'll have to live with.If you caught Episode 4, you already know my guest: medical oncologist and Gonzalez Protocol® Certified Doctor, Dr. Andre Williams. He has spent years sitting across from patients in these exact moments, and his perspective cuts through a lot of the noise."I don't want chemo." "I want to do natural treatment instead." "Don't tell me my stage." "A biopsy will spread it." "If they cut me, it spreads." "The system only cares about money."Each belief carries fear, family pressure, internet advice, and sometimes a quiet refusal to face what's actually in front of them.Because better conversations create better patients. And better patients ask better questions.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[02:52] What oncologists actually hear when a patient says "I don't want chemo" [04:19] Dr. Williams' surprising answer when patients say they want natural treatment instead[05:49] How Dr. Williams navigates a patient who says God will heal them[07:14] What patients lose when they refuse to know their stage[08:59] The biopsy myth, and what a biopsy actually makes possible[10:49] "Sugar feeds cancer": what's true, what's misunderstood, and what the fear actually costs patients[12:37] Where the "surgery spreads cancer" belief comes from and what patients risk by avoiding it[14:37] Money, mistrust, and what Dr. Williams actually does for every patient he takes on[18:03] When family pulls a patient in five different directions at once[20:17] The one thing Dr. Williams would tell every newly diagnosed cancer patientResources Mentioned:The Surprising Link Between Pregnancy and Cancer with Dr. Andre Williams | Spotify | Apple | YouTubeCollection of Books by Our Patients | BooksFind more from Dr. Andre:Dr. Andre Williams | Intro VideoDr. Andre Williams | FacebookDr. Andre Williams | InstagramHealthy Reasonings | PodcastTeshuva Wellness | WebsiteFind more from Mary Beth:The Gonzalez Protocol® | WebsiteThe Gonzalez Protocol® | InstagramJoin the Truly Thrive Membership for just $60 annually, and get full access to exclusive members-only content, including bonus content and product coupons.
