One in eight women will get a breast cancer diagnosis in their lifetime, and most don’t have a family history. Despite the billions of dollars pumped into research, the rates continue to increase. I know it sounds scary, but I want women to understand that a diagnosis is not a death sentence. There are things you can do and conventional and alternative therapies that mean you can survive and thrive. Today’s guest, Dr. Véronique Desaulniers - Dr. V - is the perfect example of this. Dr. V is the founder of Breast Cancer Conqueror, the 7 Essentials System®, and co-founder of My Breast Friend™. In this conversation, Dr. V and I discuss breast cancer prevention and treatment, the importance of reducing toxic exposure, how to support the body's detoxification pathways, her journey with breast cancer, her 7 Essentials System®, the significance of balancing energy in the body, the role of natural medicine in boosting the immune system, and more.
