Learning How to Fight Cancer Ep. 1: Dr. Nasha Winters on The Metabolic Approach

In the premiere episode of Learning How to Fight Cancer, Immunocine Founder and CEO Dr. Matt Halpert sits down with renowned integrative oncologist Dr. Nasha Winters — a cancer survivor, researcher, and one of the leading voices in the metabolic approach to cancer.

This powerful conversation explores the intersection of two scientific philosophies: Immunocine’s dendritic cell-based immunotherapy and Dr. Winters’ terrain-based, whole-system approach to restoring immune function and rebalancing the body.

Dr. Winters begins by sharing her deeply personal story — being diagnosed with end-stage ovarian cancer at just 19 years old and told she wouldn’t live to see the new year. Thirty-three years later, she is still here, having spent her life decoding the systems that drive both disease and healing.

Together, Matt and Nasha explore:

  • Why the immune system is often overlooked in conventional cancer care — and how that’s finally starting to change.
  • How patient outcomes improve when metabolic and immune systems are treated in tandem.
  • The decades of failure in immunotherapy — and what Immunocine has done differently to finally make it work.
  • Why hope, humility, and collaboration are vital to driving the next era of personalized cancer care.

This isn’t just a scientific dialogue — it’s a look at what’s possible when two different disciplines come together for the patient’s sake. As Matt puts it, “The goal is to make cancer a speed bump, not a brick wall.”
