Could an inexpensive, decades-old medication have a future role in cancer care and why is Florida investing millions to find out?

In this episode of the Now + Then Podcast, Dr. Bart Precourt and Callie Michaelis separate early research from online hype surrounding ivermectin and cancer. They examine what researchers are studying, why laboratory findings are not the same as proven treatments, and why patients should never self-medicate based on a viral headline.

They also investigate claims about "lab-grown eggs" appearing in popular grocery products and explain the difference between real eggs and egg-white proteins created through precision fermentation.

Plus, they carefully unpack a study examining frozen embryo transfer and childhood cancer, putting the relative and absolute risks into context so parents and prospective parents can make informed decisions without unnecessary fear.

WHO IS THIS EPISODE FOR?

● Anyone seeing viral claims about ivermectin and cancer
● Consumers concerned about lab-grown ingredients in grocery products
● Parents and couples considering IVF or frozen embryo transfer
● People who want medical headlines explained with greater context
● Anyone interested in cancer research, peptides, sleep, and preventive health
