Prevention Not Prescriptions: Tuesday, December 8

Welcome back to Prevention Not Prescriptions Tuesday. This is a weekly forum where we’re coming together to inform and inspire each other to better health.

It's straight forward and simple. Tuesdays will be our chance to take our health into our own hands and say “hell no” to the pharmaceutical industry’s endless search for profits. Sound like something you want to be involved with?  Here are the details on how to participate each week.

Once again, a big thank you to all of the contributors below who got involved this week.  This edition of Prevention Not Prescriptions has everything from the low down on what’s in the H1N1 vaccine to the must-have health products you’d want if you were stranded on a deserted island (or at the very least in your cabinet at home). Enjoy!

And we’re starting things off this week with one of the most intriguing interviews we’ve had on the show…

Kicking cancer's butt with natural remedies

He was given six months to live...it's now eleven years later.

This astonishing interview will change how you look at cancer and its treatment for good.

 

In 1999 Jerry Brunetti was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma and told that he had as little as six months to live. Forgoing traditional radiation and chemotherapy, Jerry used his vast knowledge of farming and animal nutrition and embarked on his own journey to become cancer free. 

Jerry shares how he defied the cancer odds and took charge of his health using a holistic approach. Recruiting a team of medical coaches, he focused on immune modulation using natural substances, a routine of supplements and rigorous nutrition, and detoxification. Here he busts the cancer myths and offers advice to others who are battling this epidemic disease. 

Listen to Jerry's interview
