I’m a HR+ BC survivor.. (stage IIb .. 14 yrs) and it is absolutely true what she shares regarding the long term consequences of treatment… when it’s you and you’re a deer in headlights terrified … i forgive myself for treatment options I chose …. Because I would never do it again. I would do the lumpectomy again and that’s where I would stop. I would not do radiation, chemo, 5 yrs of aromatase inhibitor, full hysterectomy with my ovaries removed. The metabolic syndrome, hormone deprivation, heart disease and brain health… everything I’m dealing with now … wish I had a Time Machine. Did I mention I was 40… so now I’m 54 and have the problems of an 80 yr old. I hope for the future … QT imaging is standard, and young women listen to lifestyle intervention… and have the benefit of your expertise. God bless.

Thank God for all of you honest and caring healthcare professionals. I love this podcast!

Thank you so much! I have known what you’re saying for many years. I found a lump myself and had a double mastectomy in 2008 my choice. I refused all other treatments. Mine was triple positive and a small lump showed up on the scar so I told the surgeon what I wanted her to do and she did it. Once again, they wanted to throw all of the book at me in terms of chemotherapies. I refused, except I did choose her. Septon and I chose to do an Astra Ohl, but I stopped both before the treatment time was up. I could already tell that the side effects were not going to agree with me. It is 2024 and I am still alive and happy about that. I had my breast implants removed 11 years after I had them and I’m happy about that too. I eat zero animal products and do not miss them one single bit. I cannot wait to share this with my friends and family especially the ones that follow the medical model of getting a mammogram every year or so. My family is afraid because I had breast cancer so now everybody’s over doing diagnostic procedures because of that. I told them to stop but they don’t. Thank you.

incredible discussion!! completely exceeded my expectations in just the first 10 minutes ❤🙏

[mariavaldez]

I love Dr. Jenny Simmons. I wish I lived in the same state and city so she could be my Dr. May God bless her and her team. Always 🙏🏼

Great information. I just had my second mammogram screening this morning.

[pambreid]

I came across this and it is VERY helpful!!

[elainec]

This was a very enlightening conversation. Thank you. Will be sharing this one far and wide. I wish full body MRIs without gadolinium were covered as part of an annual exam. People can have anomalies anywhere. I don’t want it to lead to over treatment though. There’s the Greece test for different kinds of cancers. Heard some other countries diagnose and treat with better results per this docuseries I watched years ago about cancer.

Dr. Jenn - thanks for mentioning how your memory was affected by menopause. I had to stop bioidentical hormones due to breast cancer and there was an almost immediate crash inmy short term memory and my sleep. I was diagnosed 3 years ago and am now looking into going back on hormone replacement . I have tried multiple interventions for sleep- nothing works consistently. Time to try hormones again for quality of life.

My mom and aunts died from breast cancer and they never drank from plastic bottles and here I am having everything in plastic. I’m supposed to have another mammogram tomorrow due to asymmetry and now I don’t even want to have it.

[gaildey]

Hi i love your show its very informative i would like to see of your topics on breast cancer seeing that i am 7years in remission on hormonal breast cancer hER - AND hR, +

[loribakergirl]

Ok I’m SO THANKFUL for this video!! But oh my word, I’m more confused now than ever because now HRT is safe and good for us?? Even if we’ve had BC?? I’m so lost…. 🤯😵‍💫 I’ll relisten and am trying to understand this!!

Switzerland has NOT banned mammograms. This is misinformation. They aren’t available everywhere in Switzerland but they aren’t banned. And I say this as someone who’s not a big fan of mammograms.

regarding dairy, all the research shows dairy is not inflammatory "For most people, research does not support a consistent link between dairy and inflammation" and that's when they actually tested inflammatory markers. so unless you have a protein allergy what would be the benefit of not consuming it? For example to exclude fermented cheeses from your diet you are missing out on the bacteria in the fermented cheeses that are far more diverse than from fermented vegetables and the calcium and other micronutrients that are good for you.. probably better to talk about how you would know if you have 'inflammation' from dairy if you have no symptoms. I agree about alcohol it's a carcinogen. Being overweight and drinking are a toxic combination for inflammation, especially if someone is eating a lot of refined grains. A slice of edam? not so much a risk, I don't think. Thank you for this conversation it was very interesting. It's always interesting to hear how countries approach their screening. Did I miss ultrasound for screening if mammogram is not suitable? Just a point on not eating grains, I don't eat grains - nothing has happened to my detriment from excluding grains. I eat more vegetables - which is better for me and less calorie dense than grains, but when we are told we 'have' to eat grains, it's kind of crazy that one can feel so great not eating them!

i guess all I can say... at the end of the day.... so all the people who eat "instant" /packaged foods, who trip through life like a sloth, eating, drinking 100% "manufactured" products, those of whom who DON'T. EVEN. KNOW what broccoli looks like, lil lone what to do with it.... it's interesting how they're still -not only alive- but seem to be thriving, while the rest of us of whom have done everything we can to be " conscious " consumer, eater, grower, HUMAN etc, have bluntly like WTF ? No. One. had yet to discuss this
