Thank you thank you thank you. I’ve been cancer free. For almost 20 years two flareups the last one eight years ago. I did a 21 day water fast and the cancer disappeared whenever I feel like there is a problem or doctor recommends that I see a surgeon, I begin to immediately do a short term fast cut out all oil, sugar and salt. I was raw vegan for 10 years. Now I eat cooked vegetables, raw fruits, only and still stay salt, oil and sugar-free. Thank you for having this wonderful lady on. God bless you all.

came across this video during research. officially diagnosed with b c on 3/24/23. at first, everything was so overwhelming, frustrating, disappointing, etc. but i pulled my pants up, and have been discussing the best treatment options for my type of b c. am i still nervous, you bet, but i know that with God, all things are possible, if i believe. my diet wasn’t bad but could definitely be better. watching the video gave me more and better food options to include. i will beat this and be better than ever afterwards. best wishes to all! 💓🎀

I am at the 11th year of surviving terminal Prostate cancer. I chose the plant based diet rather than chemo & radiation. My recent PSA is still at 0.03.

[normatolentino]

Thank you I am a breast cancer for 20 years I really believe food Is the best medicine and I am 78 years we have to inform people

[johnaplank]

Thanks Lauren for sharing the five most peventive foods, but can i mention a view things you forgot to mention?
# 1 Raw Garlic, after crushing should sit for at least 10 minutes in order for the allicin to be produced, which is the power of raw garlic.
# 2 Turmeric needs to be taken with black pepper for the body to digest it properly.
# 3 I know berries are very healthy, but commercial blue berries and straw berries and grapes are loaded with pesticides, organic is the only safe way.
Sorry, just trying to be helpful.

Cranberries / Bone broth / Lemon / Pomegranate / Watercress / Chaga Mushroom / Leeks / Moringa / Broccoli Sprouts / Green Onions - been studying this subject for twenty years. 1000's of hours of investigation. This list is for real. Best wishes to all.

This sounds almost identical to what happened to me. We could have written this word for word and the same decision making process. After all was said and done, I also did not do chemo or radiation. This was in late 2013. They monitored me for a little over a year. I just became tired of the scans because I realized that this chemical can also bring about cancer. I just stopped everything. Put all of my faith, trust in the word of God. I am still here and feeling great. If anything is up, I am fighting it everyday. Trying to strengthen my system all of the time. Year 10!! They called it lung cancer!! All praise to God!!

[michellejones]

Am very proud of you God is good all the time.

[williambunter]

A lovely lady! And I have learnt a lot here. I have a big nasty tumour on my left kidney, and I am trying to starve the cancer cells, and feed good food to the gut. Processed food is OUT, and so is sugar. And no more battering my liver with alcohol. I am 73, and morbidly obese, but I am resolved to get as slim and healthy as possible in whatever time remains before the Lord calls me.

[Dreamysunshine]

Not only does food play a part of health but it's also stress and environment so no one should be ashamed in getting sick... there's a reason why she's still here to be able to tell her story
