048: Can foods fix cancer? She says yes.
Think back to when you were 21.
Chances are life felt more free, more exciting, more fun. And if you were anything like me, you probably thought you were going to live forever.
Now imagine you went to bed one night the picture of good health…
And woke up with a lump on your neck.
Well that’s exactly what happened to my guest Liana Werner-Gray, the bestselling author of The Earth Diet and 10-Minute Recipes.
In her latest book, called Cancer-Free with Food, Liana explains how important diet is to prevent — and recover from — cancer.
On this episode of the Dr. Gundry Podcast, Liana and I will discuss her incredible story of personal recovery, how she defeated her junk food cravings, and the simple recipes you can try at home to enjoy some of the most potent cancer-fighting foods on the planet.
Not only that, but you’ll also learn about the vitamin you NEED for cancer prevention, the “super green” Liana swears by, and the best way to shop for healthy ingredients (even on a budget).
