Author and health entrepreneur Kashif Khan discussed what he described as a growing incidence of so-called “turbo cancer” during a conversation with commentator Zuby, arguing that changes in immune system function are contributing to an increase in multiple advanced cancers appearing simultaneously in younger individuals.
During the interview, Khan said recent data points to a trend that he believes did not exist in previous decades.
“There’s data that shows that turbo cancer in people that are 35 years old is fairly commonplace now. When it just didn’t exist, they didn’t even, nobody knew what that word meant,” Khan said.
Zuby then asked Khan to explain what the term means.
“What what does that word mean? I’ve I’ve heard the term, but what does the turbo part mean?” Zuby asked.
Khan responded by describing what he believes distinguishes the condition from more conventional cancer progression.
“This this pathology of multiple late stage cancers all appearing at the same time that normally don’t appear like that together, like for example, if you get breast cancer, it’s common for those that cancer to spread to your lymph system. That’s known, right? It’s a common thing. Breast cancer will lead to lymph. It’s not common to get liver cancer, brain cancer, and lung cancer all at the same time. Why that happen, right?” Khan said.
He continued by explaining his view of how cancer normally develops and how the body’s immune system responds.
“So gen like everybody has cancer all the time. Everybody listening, there’s cancer in your body. Your immune system is constantly dealing with it. It’s normal,” Khan said.
According to Khan, problems arise when the immune system no longer functions effectively.
“It’s when the energy goes down and the inflammation is high, but most importantly, the immune system is confused because it’s overwhelmed that cancer starts to win,” he said.
Khan argued that this same process contributes to other health conditions becoming increasingly common.
“So this is why we have autoimmunity is a normal thing now, and things like turbo cancers and other chronic diseases coming in earlier,” Khan said.
He also suggested that multiple environmental and biological factors are placing additional strain on the immune system.
“The thing we’re also ignoring is the new reality of our immune system being overwhelmed, and it’s not just the viral infections and COVID just lingering in the background, and people that whether you got vaccinated or your immune system got affected there,” Khan said.
He added that several additional factors should be considered.
“It’s also the parasite surge, the mold surge, and the heavy metal surge, all overwhelming the immune system, and they’re all happening in tandem at the same time, right?” Khan said.
According to Khan, those issues reinforce one another, making the overall effect more significant.
“And they all influence each other. Heavy metals love mold, parasites love heavy metals, so they kind of like domino effect. One supports the other,” he said.

Throughout the discussion, Khan maintained that the immune system plays a central role in controlling abnormal cell growth and argued that when it becomes overwhelmed by multiple simultaneous stressors, chronic illnesses may become more common and appear at younger ages.
The conversation focused on Khan’s interpretation of current health trends, particularly the reported increase in autoimmune disorders, chronic disease, and cases involving multiple advanced cancers appearing at the same time.
Khan argued that understanding the interaction between inflammation, immune function, viral illness, environmental exposures, parasites, mold, and heavy metals is critical to explaining those developments.
During the exchange, Zuby’s questions centered on clarifying Khan’s use of the term “turbo cancer,” while Khan outlined his views on how the immune system ordinarily manages cancer cells and why, in his opinion, that process may be breaking down more frequently than in previous years.
Khan concluded that the combination of several overlapping factors, rather than a single cause, has created what he described as a new reality in which the immune system faces multiple simultaneous challenges, leading to conditions he believes were once considered uncommon becoming increasingly prevalent.
