Receiving a cancer diagnosis is a devastating life event for the patient and their loved ones. Thankfully we have tools to combat these traumatic illnesses. One of those tools is lifestyle medicine, particularly focusing on dietary intervention. In this video, Susan describes what her life and diet looked like pre-plant-based, and following the successful dietary transition. She discusses her experience with hypothyroidism, acid reflux, breast cancer, food cravings, muscle atrophy following chemotherapy, and her current weight loss journey. Susan has accomplished a number of her goals and so much more in just 12 short weeks on my Nutrition Optimization Program. It's never too late to improve your health and longevity.

What a beautiful soul Susan is 🥰, and so articulate in talking about her journey to optimum health.
She was so impressive to listen to, advocating to do your own research and not just blindly follow the doctors.
I can’t speak for America but here, you can go into any hospital and you’ll see overweight doctors and nurses everywhere.
I wish Susan good health and a long life, filled with love and laughter. 💕💕💕

Oh this was so wonderful ❤❤ So happy to hear about the joy and healing from learning and living this lifestyle 🥰 Great one Karli 😁

Thank you for the very kind and encouraging comments. Thank you so much Karli! Also of note, to anyone who is considering using cold caps to save your hair during chemo...this worked for me. While I did experience approx 50% hair loss, the up side is that I was able to keep 50% of my hair. This was a plus for my recovery. I highly recommend it. My husband graciously provided his support and cold capping services. With a community of supportive friends and professionals we have more hope today than ever. Peace to all.
