Antioxidants for Cancer with Oncological Pioneer Dr. Keith Block
In this episode of The Moss Report Podcast, Ralph Moss talks integrative oncology with Keith Block, MD.  It is difficult to imagine the field of integrative oncology without pioneer, Dr. Keith Block. Based in the Chicago area for over 40 years ago, Block and his wife, Penny Block, PhD, innovated the use of the best of “alternative medicine” for cancer treatments combined with standard practices of the time. Fast forward to today and he has established himself as a preeminent scholar on the use of foods and food supplements for cancer in combination with conventional treatments. Antioxidants in particular have been the source of considerable disagreement in the scientific community, with some doctors claiming that they undermine the effectiveness of conventional treatments. However, Block has shown through his scholarly research and his own medical practice that there is no pattern of a negative impact on patients’ health, and in fact, show a variety of profound benefits. The  Block Center for Integrative Cancer Treatment in Skokie fights cancer by addressing the underlying molecular accidents that initiate and support it. A recognized pioneer in integrative cancer treatment, the Block Center sets the standard in the U.S. for the integration of science-based strategies that, together, can help you beat the odds and put “life over cancer” (the title of his book).  Block is a graduate of the University of Florida in Gainesville and the University of Miami School of Medicine in Coral Gables. He did his residency at the Illinois Masonic Medical Center in Chicago. He was a disciple of Robert S. Mendelsohn, MD, author of Confessions of a Medical Heretic.

Cancer Journey: Life is a Ride
In this episode of The Moss Report, Dr. Ralph Moss and co-host Rachael Moss interview Chris Joseph about his journey with cancer. In October 2016, at age 59, Chris Joseph learned he had third-stage pancreatic cancer. In the midst of the panic and tremendous fear that immediately ensued, he followed the doctor's orders without hesitation and underwent chemotherapy. Months of chemotherapy poisoned his body and nearly destroyed his spirit. With no immediate plan in mind, he fired his oncologist and embarked on an alternative path of recovery, including both natural and Western medicine immunotherapy--one that, against all odds, opened his eyes and healed him, both physically and spiritually.  Over the last 33 years, Chris Joseph has started and managed three environmental consulting businesses, launched two fan-funded music record companies, and founded a non-profit charitable foundation. He has also dabbled in philanthropy, songwriting, magazine writing, and he is currently studying for his real estate license. He also adds 'author' to his list of accomplishments with his book, Life is a Ride, a tale of a man that turned a potential death sentence into a life embrace. A native of Los Angeles, Chris has lived in Southern California all of his life. He has two teenage boys, a wonderful girlfriend, and enjoys traveling, hiking, sports, music, and connecting with other people.  His book “Life is a Ride” is available on Amazon.
