When someone is diagnosed with cancer, it feels like the end of the world. But it doesn't have to be. Our guests didn't just overcome cancer naturally, they used it as a platform from which to be a voice for positive change. Pretty powerful stuff! Amanda Deming - Healing cervical cancer - Episode 8 Cervical cancer killed nearly 4,000 women last year. It's the second most common cancer among women. Conventional treatments, like surgery, chemo and radiation, aren't just poisonous, they often lead to infertility. When Amanda was diagnosed with cervical cancer, she was determined not to go down that road. Instead, she chose a raw vegan diet, meditation, and yoga. She's now cancer-free. Jeff Witzeman - Cancer can be killed - Episode 190 When Jeff's wife was diagnosed with an aggressive form of bladder cancer, she was told her life would change forever: surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, a life without an essential organ. Instead of taking the doctor's word for it, they travelled to Germany to treat the cancer to a spa. Thanks to juicing, a plant-based diet, hyperthermia (targeted heat therapy), oxygen therapy, intravenous vitamins, and colonics, she was completely cancer-free in just one month. Tracey Edmonds - The truth about healing cancer - Episode 226 Just like Alli, Tracey lost both her parents to preventable diseases: her mom died from cancer and shortly after, her dad died from a heart attack. This made her determined to be a pillar of health and to spread the message through as many media outlets as possible. She launched the wellness website Alright Now to give people the tools they need to live their healthiest life - from nutrition and fitness to relationships and parenting. We think she rocks! Jill Tomback - Beating breast cancer - Episodes 26, 27 and 28 Jill and I were room-mates when she was first diagnosed with breast cancer at just 25 years old. She endured four years of conventional treatment, including chemo and surgery. But since then, she's taken the holistic route: she's a plant-powered Pilates superstar, an avid juicer and a big fan of the Gerson therapy. As of this year, she's celebrating 9 years cancer-free. Preventing Cancer Naturally Part of cancer prevention is giving your body the tools it needs to be in great health. That's why we love Organifi juice powder. It's the perfect combination of detoxifying, energizing nutrients to keep disease at bay. Alli's personal favorite is the Organifi Gold, which contains turmeric, ginger, reishi and turkey tail mushroom to keep you calm, help you sleep and soothe your muscles. Just mix the powder with hot water or oat milk for a super creamy bedtime drink. Organifi products are completely vegan, gluten free, soy free and keto-friendly.
