About this listen

 When Dawn Mussallem was in her 20s, she was diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma. In 2021, her heart failed and she underwent a heart transplant. Then one year later… She became the first person ever to run a marathon 12 months after a transplant. Dawn Mussallem is a perfect example of the impact nutrition and exercise can have on your health. But Dawn isn’t just talking from her experience. She’s a double board‑certified Mayo Clinic physician specialising in Breast Cancer and Oncology. So not only is she giving us advice she has taken on herself.. But backing it up by real studies such as how adults who eat more fruits, vegetables and whole grains reduced their risk of dying from any cancer by 10%. If there’s ever an episode that you need to listen to… It’s this one. Stick around to find out: ~ Dawn’s hottest take about the cancer health and wellness industry and why most people are focusing on the wrong things ~ How 3 doctors misdiagnosed her cancer (and the moment she realised something was seriously wrong) ~ Could Dawn’s lifestyle pre-cancer diagnosis have caused her diagnosis? ~ What’s more important for cancer recovery - strength training or cardio? ~ The shocking research showing exercise can be as beneficial as chemotherapy ~ Why ultra-processed foods are driving cancer rates in young adults ~ The study showing eating healthier at 20 can add up to 13 years to your life ~ How nutrition can increase energy and even help maintain muscle during chemo … and SO much more Mums, if you want to make sure that your toddlers are getting the good stuff in their milk - we’re talking whole milk not skim, no added sugars and no palm oil - make sure you check out Haven Toddler Milks.
