Probiotics are undoubtedly one of the best ways to strengthen your gut, the foundation of your body and mind. Because of this, I felt compelled to learn more about one of the leading researchers.
As I dug deeper, I discovered that Natasha’s family has a 750-year history of producing the most beneficial yogurt for the Royal family of Yugoslavia. Furthermore, she has rigorously studied probiotics for the last 40 years and is a treasure chest of information.
Join De’Ann (Head 7 Essentials System® Coach) and me to learn about the #1 strand of probiotics for breast cancer thrivers and the details of why probiotics are critical for anyone who wants to experience vibrant health!

Here are some highlights from this Podcast: Natasha’s 750-Year Family Legacy of Fermentation
Natasha Trenev shares her fascinating family history, which dates back 750 years, as her father was the official food supplier to the King of Yugoslavia. This legacy inspired her groundbreaking work in introducing Bulgarian yogurt to the U.S. and establishing the first liquid yogurt standard in California. The Importance of Probiotic Strain Selection for Cancer Thrivers

She describes her innovative oil matrix delivery system, which protects the bacteria from stomach acid and ensures they reach the intestines alive and active. The Link Between Fungi, Cancer, and Gut Health
Natasha delves into recent research showing that fungi and harmful bacteria are present in many cancerous tumors. She explains how maintaining a balanced microbiome can help prevent fungal overgrowth, a key factor in the development of various cancers, including breast cancer. -

At the young age of 30 and during her residency, Dr. Boham received a shocking breast cancer diagnosis. She was well-educated in health and doing “all the right things.”

Your body doesn’t make mistakes—rather, it responds to its environment—something you (for the most part) have control over. It's not about the tumor, it is about the terrain. This is the terrain-centric approach (compared to tumor-centric) that of Nicole Saleske, NP. I’m delighted to have her on the podcast because she has seen remarkable success amongst her patients since focusing on the terrain awakens your innate ability to heal.
According to Nicole, you are not cancer. You are a person who is having a "cancer-ing" experience, but it is not WHO you are—because it is not yours to keep!
Tune in to learn how your body's terrain can create an environment that is hospitable to cancer. However, since I am a woman of solutions, Nicole and I also discuss specific things you can do to prevent cancer from rooting down into your body's soil—now and forever.

Award-winning writer and producer of “bOObs: The War on Women’s Breast” and investigative journalist Megan Smith, M.S., dedicates her career to better the lives of those with health afflictions.
Her latest documentary, “A New Standard of Care: Alternative Cancer Therapies” (watch for free), investigates the area of non-conventional cancer therapies used worldwide. Presenting medical journal citations as irrefutable evidence, the film is designed to educate policymakers, the medical community, and the public that many alternative cancer treatments are legitimate and worthy of future investment, research, and clinical trials.
It’s time to listen and learn…and learn who to trust. For example, Coca-Cola recently sponsored a study that the American Society of Clinical Oncologists uses—how hypocritical is that?!

Do your research, ask questions, and curate a true wellness plan. This podcast and programs like Survive and Thrive with Integrative Healing are great places to start.
