Please join us for the Webinar “A Metabolic Approach to Cancer”
with Dr. Hailey Brownstein & Dr. Braswell Deen
Hosted by IPAK EDU Weekly Science Webinar
THERE IS STILL TIME TO REGISTER!
The metabolic approach to cancer, originally advanced by Otto Warburg and later expanded by Thomas Seyfried, views cancer primarily as a disorder of cellular energy metabolism rather than solely a genetic disease. Warburg observed that many cancer cells rely heavily on aerobic glycolysis (the "Warburg effect") even in the presence of oxygen, suggesting altered mitochondrial function and metabolic reprogramming. Seyfried builds on this framework by proposing that mitochondrial dysfunction is central to tumorigenesis and that targeting glucose and glutamine metabolism can selectively stress cancer cells while sparing normal, metabolically flexible tissues. This perspective supports therapeutic strategies that exploit metabolic vulnerabilities — including dietary, fasting, and redox-based interventions — alongside conventional treatments.
Dr. Braswell Deen has 30 years of experience in medicine, serving as an attending physician in the Providence Hospital Department of Family Medicine since 1997. He has served with his wife Mambwe in medical missions in Zambia since 2003. Besides medicine, his great joy comes from Mambwe and their children Emma Jean and Ryan James.
Dr. Hailey Brownstein completed her Bachelor of Science in Biopsychology, Cognition, and Neuroscience at the University of Michigan. She completed her Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine degree at the Alabama College of Osteopathic Medicine. Dr. Hailey Brownstein completed residency training as the Chief Resident at Ascension Providence Hospital in Southfield, Michigan, and is now a physician at the Center for Holistic Medicine with her father, Dr. David Brownstein, who inspired her to pursue medicine. Growing up immersed in the world of holistic medicine, she has seen firsthand the success of a whole-body approach. Dr. Hailey Brownstein is also trained in osteopathic manipulation, a form of manual medicine used to treat various physical conditions. Her interests in family medicine are all-encompassing, and she is trained to treat all ages, including infants and toddlers.
This Webinar is available to ANYONE who is interested in learning about cancer. There will be a Q & A with Dr. Hailey Brownstein and Dr Braswell Dean after the Webinar.
