Cancer as a Metabolic Disease
Why More Younger Women Are Developing Breast Cancer

Thursday Feb 26, 2026   5- 6:30 pm
Sawyer Free Library, Gloucester, MA  

Is cancer a haphazard genetic disease that still appears to be poorly understood by the cancer industry? Or is cancer actually a metabolic disease, created by logical biological conditions?  If so, what is causing so much more breast cancer in younger women today?

Dr. Susan Wadia-Ells, author of Busting Breast Cancer: Five Simple Steps to Keep Breast Cancer out of Your Body, will discuss this critical question at the Sawyer Free Library on Thursday February 26, 5-6:30pm.  

Wadia-Ells, a Manchester, by the Sea resident, is an investigative journalist with a background in political economy and women’s studies. In 2008, continuing to lose too many friends to metastatic breast cancer, she founded the National Breast Cancer Prevention Project to fund her research, while also writing the “Honest Health” column for the Gloucester Daily Times.
