Estonian Real Podcast #015 Vitmin D and Cancer with Leena Hilakivi Clarke
My todays guest is Leena Hilakivi-Clarke. She is a professor of food science and nutrition at the Hormel Institute. In the podcast we talked about what cancer is and how it develops. We also talked about the conditions that can lead to cancer and what happens when a person is affected by cancer. We also talked about how vitamin d is one of the possible and safe cancer drugs and the current results are promising. Apart from vitamin d, we also talked about the effects of food on our bodies.
Dr. Leena Hilakivi-Clarke’s research involves studying the role of dietary factors in affecting breast cancer risk and mortality. She investigates how maternal diet and obesity during pregnancy can pre-program offspring’s risk of developing breast cancer, focusing on persistent changes in the offspring’s epigenome, gut microbiota and inflammatory pathways. She also studies possible interventions that could be implemented either during pregnancy or to adult offspring to prevent their increased breast cancer risk and risk of breast cancer recurrence. These interventions include bioactive compounds in foods, such as genistein and vitamin D, beneficial dietary fats, or traditional anti-inflammatory herb mixtures. Another research topic Dr. Hilakivi-Clarke has been studying is the biological changes caused by social isolation and loneliness that could explain why socially isolated individuals are at a significantly increased risk of dying of breast cancer. Along with smoking and obesity, social isolation is linked to adverse health outcomes. Dr. Hilakivi-Clarke collaborates closely with experts in computational modeling and has several past collaborations with epidemiologists to translate her preclinical findings to the clinic.
