Why Did I Get Cancer?

36: Can Positive Emotions Kill Cancer Cells?

36: Can Positive Emotions Kill Cancer Cells?
 
Join me for part two of my interview with the New York Times best-selling author of Radical Remission and Radical Hope, Dr. Kelly Turner.
Did you know that positive emotions can impact your pituitary and pineal glands and flood your bloodstream with oxytocin, relaxin, serotonin, and endorphins?
Translation: These hormones have been shown in studies to reduce the spread of and the growth speed of cancer cells.
Dr. Turner also shared that researchers dripped oxytocin into Petri dishes holding breast cancer cells; the oxytocin diminished the breast cancer cells.
Listen to today's podcast episode to discover the ten healing factors all her study subjects had in common.
These ten key healing factors for Radical Remission are, in no particular order:
Radically changing your diet
Taking control of your health
Following your intuition
Using herbs and supplements
Releasing suppressed emotions
Increasing positive emotions
Embracing social support
Deepening your spiritual connection
Having strong reasons for living
Exercise
In Radical Remission, Dr. Turner states that these factors are in no particular ranking order — in her research, there was no “clear winner” among the factors. While some people focused more on one factor than others, the majority of the survivors she interviewed did practice all nine of these key factors. These key factors are now considered “hypotheses” — that is, more research is needed to “prove” that these factors improve the chances of healing from cancer or other conditions.
Dr. Turner points out: “I don’t give medical advice nor do I even give advice. I’m just here to report on my research, and I can certainly say what radical remission survivors would do from a research standpoint.”
Dr. Turner shows how survivors overcame dire circumstances and diagnoses using modalities beyond the conventional treatments of surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and other “standard” cancer treatments. Interestingly, seven of these ten key factors that Radical Remission survivors reported using are psychosocial (mental/emotional) factors, while the other three are nutritionally and movement-related.
While getting her Ph.D. at the University of California, Berkley, Dr. Turner, a researcher, lecturer, and counselor in integrative oncology, was shocked to discover that no one was studying episodes of radical (or unexpected) remission—when people recover against all odds without the help of conventional medicine, or after conventional medicine has failed. She was so fascinated by this kind of remission that she embarked on a ten-month trip around the world, traveling to ten different countries to interview fifty holistic healers and twenty radical remission cancer survivors about their healing practices and techniques. Her research continued by interviewing over 100 Radical Remission survivors and studying over 1000 of these cases. Her evidence presents nine common themes that she believes may help even terminal patients turn their lives around.

I love using Bison! It's very nutrient dense and contains conjugated linoleic acid (I know, what the heck does that mean?), which means Bison has anti-inflammatory properties.
Here are the other reasons why I love using Bison in place of ground beef:
Higher amounts of omega three fatty acids.
More b12, zinc, iron, and selenium than beef.
Some studies show it's got four times the vitamin E compared to beef.
Lower in calories and cholesterol.
It is lower fat, so it will cook faster than ground beef.
My friends at BB are offering a deal that they've never offered to anyone! I had to say "pretty please" a couple of times, and guess what? It worked! I can't tell you how long they will offer this deal to me, but here it is:

35: Can Listening to Your Intuition Cause a Radical Remission?

35: Can Listening to Your Intuition Cause a Radical Remission?
 
A candid conversation with Dr. Kelly Turner, author of "Radical Remission and Radical Hope."
 
Today I welcome Kelly A Turner, Ph.D. and New York Times best-selling author of Radical Remission and Radical Hope.
Kelly and I talk about the difference between radical remission and spontaneous healing and the ten key healing factors that cancer survivors have in common. Sure, we can assume that changing diet and lowering stress levels can impact healing but what about factors such as listening to your intuition? For Dr. Turner, intuition was the hardest healing factor for her to understand so she dove into research to see if this could be a legitimate healing factor, spoiler alert, she found numerous studies citing intuition as a healing factor.
According to Dr. Turner, almost all the Radical Remission survivors that she interviewed mentioned doing these same ten things to heal their cancer.
These ten key healing factors for Radical Remission are, in no particular order:
Radically changing your diet
Taking control of your health
Following your intuition
Using herbs and supplements
Releasing suppressed emotions
Increasing positive emotions
Embracing social support
Deepening your spiritual connection
Having strong reasons for living

47: Things I Wish I Would Have Known 30 Years Ago, Episode 2

47: Things I Wish I Would Have Known 30 Years Ago, Segment 2
I wish I had understood the healing power of joy, hope, and happiness. And the power of having an inner circle that believes similarly.
But I know now! And I work daily to have more joy, happiness, and hope. Is that easy? Nope. I had to cultivate these emotions by setting up my day correctly.
What does that mean to “set up my day” correctly? It means I no longer over-schedule myself; I spend time outside first thing in the morning and start my day “hanging out” with God and praying for my friends and family. I allow more margin in my day, which helps me keep my stress levels lower.
According to Dr. Kelly Turner, almost all the Radical Remission survivors she interviewed mentioned doing these ten things to heal their cancer.
These ten key healing factors for Radical Remission are, in no particular order:
1. Radically changing your diet2. Taking control of your health3. Following your intuition4. Using herbs and supplements5. Releasing suppressed emotions6. Increasing positive emotions7. Embracing social support8. Deepening your spiritual connection9. Having strong reasons for living10. Exercise
In 2023 I am very focused on number 6 on the list above!
I loved my interview with Radical Remission author Dr. Kelly Turner.
I re-listened to it and was reminded how happiness hormones can kill cancer cells.
Here are some studies that she suggested for my listeners:

46: What Does Indiana Jones Know About Preventing Cancer? A Conversation with Archaeologist Dr. Bill Schindler

46: What Does Indiana Jones Know About preventing cancer? A Conversation with Archaeologist Dr. Bill Schindler
Dr. Bill Schindler told me that in 2 decades of research, he’d learned two simple truths:
Humans are sicker than ever before, and
We must learn from the ancestral past to correct the mistakes of the modern food system.
In today's podcast, Dr. S. tells us we should ask ourselves not what we should eat but how; specifically, to look at food in an ancestral way that makes the food we eat as safe and nourishing as it can be for our bodies.
Bill has spent his career studying indigenous groups worldwide and now understands that living a full and healthy life means understanding how people prepared their food hundreds of years ago.
We had an enlightening discussion about fermented foods, nixtamalizing, organ meats, and farmer's markets. He explained that our digestive tract is very inefficient and "processing our foods," for example, eating sourdough bread can allow our bodies to absorb more nutrients from the food.
His website states that our relationship with food does not exist in a vacuum. That is why diets don't work – they are always out of context because they do not consider the other aspects of "life" that are so important to us. How we acquire, process, store, share, and consume food is uniquely human and embedded in practically all aspects of our lives. So learning to eat like humans again is really about learning to live like humans again.
I HIGHLY recommend purchasing his book, taking one of his online classes, or following him on social media! Click the link below for more deets!
 
It’s not about what we eat, but HOW we eat it. Take control of your health.

45: Can a Lack of Sleep Cause Cancer? Getting Better Rest with Sleep Expert Devin Burke

45: Can a Lack of Sleep Cause Cancer? Getting Better Rest with Sleep Expert Devin Burke
I haven't been a good sleeper for the last twenty years or so. I overthink, and then I seem to get myself "worked up;" it takes me hours to fall asleep. Add in Covid and breast cancer, and I can tell you the last two years have been rough. This is why I was so excited to welcome sleep expert Devin Burke to today's podcast episode.
One of Devin's tips was to start my day with a glass of water and then coffee. He suggests I go outside and look toward the sun (never at the sun!), drink my water, and wait an hour before coffee.
I'm not sure I can do it, but I'm giving it a shot :)
Here's the sleep tip I've already started to incorporate, and I'm telling you, it's helping me to fall asleep faster.
Devin suggests going outside for five minutes a couple of times per day. The point is to give your brain a break and not try to solve any problems.
He concludes that giving your brain some downtime helps to encourage your body to sleep deeper at night.
This is harder than it sounds, so I had to leave my phone inside.
Give this episode a listen to hear more sleep tips that actually work!

I'm picky about fish. I will only purchase wild fish, and yes, I'm that obnoxious person that asks the waitstaff in restaurants where they got the fish! I know that wild is healthier, and this is why I love ButcherBox wild salmon!
Recent studies show that higher fish consumption is associated with improved immune function. The study, which looked at the cancer-fighting effects of the Mediterranean diet, found that people who reported eating less fish and more red meat showed several common abnormalities in their blood that suggested a higher risk of cancer.
Wild and smaller fish, such as salmon, are anti-inflammatory and associated with better brain, hormonal, and nervous system health.

21. Clean Beauty – A Conversation with Gabriel of Gabriel Cosmetics, Inc.

21. Clean Beauty – A Conversation with Gabriel of Gabriel Cosmetics, Inc.
 
I was shocked when Gabriel told me that we each have 5-7 pounds of skin and that our skin is our biggest organ. The skin works as a filter, so what goes on our skin goes into our bodies. Yikes! It made me think about what types of products I use on my skin, hair, and nails.
 
Ironically, I just returned from my annual National Association of Nutritional Professionals conference. One of the speakers mentioned that within 4 minutes of using nail polish, the chemicals from the polish hit our bloodstream. 
 
When you hear two messages within days that sound the same, I know it's a sign!
 
One of my big takeaways from my conversation with Gabriel is how we can make our own or DIY natural products. For example, he likes to use Jojoba oil as a moisturizer, and he cooks with essential oils. 
 
Listen to the podcast episode to learn more of his DIY secrets!
 
Gabriel De Santino is the founder and CEO of Gabriel Cosmetics, Inc., a global natural beauty empire whose brands include Gabriel, Zuzu Luxe, and Clean Kids Naturally. Born of Latin descent and raised off the coast of Mexico, Gabriel, at an early age, was naturally drawn to the coastal life and heavily influenced by his grandmother's holistic practices. At the age of 18, Gabriel moved to Seattle, Washington. He knew the Pacific Northwest had a rising fashion and beauty scene and joined the movement at a local beauty counter. It was there that Gabriel fell in love with makeup but was also inspired to look past the made-up face. He soon secured a position at a salon & spa to learn more about the industry and how he may change it. After attending aesthetician school, he quickly discovered he wanted to first correct the skin before covering it up, a mantra he still practices today. As an aesthetician, he struggled because women were using toxic products on their skin. But, given his background as a naturopath and familiarity with sea botanicals, his calling was loud and clear.
 
In 1992, he solicited his friends and family's moral and financial support. As a result, he started Gabriel Organics, a complete line of all-natural, vegan, gluten-free, and cruelty-free skincare products made with seaweed as its hero ingredient. Gabriel Cosmetic Inc.'s prestige and diverse brand portfolio were created out of one man's vision of clearly defining natural beauty and being able to provide affordable and accessible vegan beauty products to consumers worldwide. Gabriel Cosmetics, Inc. is headquartered in its original area of Redmond, Washington, with over 25 employees and its fearless leader, Gabriel De Santino, leading the charge every step of the way.

44: Things I Wish I’d Known Thirty Years Ago, But I Know Now!

44: Things I Wish I’d Known Thirty Years Ago, But I Know Now!
The old pre-cancer me was too busy to take the time to see how someone was doing. I found my identity in being busy.
 
Busy is not my true identity.
 
Being busy was a distraction that kept me from connecting to people and activities that I loved. 
 
It's never a "waste of time" to connect with someone.
The post-cancer me has discovered the importance of "being" instead of "doing."
Eating is one of the critical components of staying healthy! When you eat, be present; look at your food, not your computer screen.
Take a deep breath before you react to situations or the people around you.
Work to stay at peace with those around you. I'm still working on this one :)
 
The new me finds her identity in being generous with people, asking how people are, and praying for them. As a result, I get just as much accomplished every day, and my stress levels are lower because I've taken the time to connect with people and be present in my daily surroundings. 
 
Give the podcast a listen to discover the health habits I wish I had started 30 years ago.

43: Can the Body Heal Itself from Cancer or Autoimmune Disorders?

43: Can the Body Heal Itself from Cancer or Autoimmune Disorders?
I loved my conversation with Holistic Nurse Practitioner Alyssa Siegel.
Alyssa is not afraid to go against big pharma to tell us how to use pharmaceutical alternatives, such as supplements and tinctures.
She believes that the body can heal itself if we create a healthy environment so our bodies can thrive. 
She is in hot pursuit of trying to find out what made her patients ill in the first place; what's the root cause of why they're sick?
She believes that the body is designed to heal itself and that you can recover if you can lower your toxin load. She also talks about the emotional aspect of illness and how that can be a considerable contributor to staying sick.
She was also very candid that the food most of us consume is very inflammatory, and it's difficult to heal when your body is in a state of inflammation.
She offered doable health hacks so that your body can heal itself!

42: Do Dryer Sheets Increase Indoor Air Pollution?

42: Do Dryer Sheets Increase Indoor Air Pollution?
If you’re not breathing well, you’re not WELL!
This episode is part two of my conversation with Wendy, a toxins lawyer, and clean-living coach. We had a candid and, at times, shocking conversation about indoor air quality and cleaning products.
Wendy told me indoor air quality could be 2-5 more polluted than outdoor air. And since, on average, we spend 90% of our time indoors, the quality of our indoor air matters.
A doctor told me many years ago that if you're not breathing well, you're not well.
We also have an interesting discussion about household cleaning products and the pollution they can bring into your space.
Wendy shared with me that she used to have terrible migraines. She was living in Italy when her daughter was born, and her daughter was suffering from a skin disorder. Her Italian pediatrician suggested she get rid of all synthetic fragrances in her home (laundry detergent and cleaning supplies); she did, and her daughter's skin was healed, and Wendy also got rid of her migraines!
