RESILIENCE
‘I have become the CEO of my own health’ says Kanya King, founder of the MOBO awards, who was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer in December. She refuses to accept her prognosis, which is, after all, always a ‘best guess’, based on years of medical training, yes, but… ‘Through resilience, grit and optimism, she hopes to reverse her prognosis.’
“This diagnosis isn’t the end of my story,” King said. “It’s a chance to inspire resilience, raise awareness, use this moment to not only fight my own battle but to amplify the message of early detection and the importance of proactively taking charge of your health. If my story can save just one life, then it’s a story worth telling.” Full article in The Times here.
PERSEVERANCE
Real change comes when people embrace it. This was Stansted Airport in London earlier this week. A queue to refill water bottles. And, as the sign says, there are now more refilling stations at all of their airport’s gates. Sustainability progress.
PROGRESS
More change on its way if this doctor has anything to do with it. Good to see Dr van Tulleken’s best-seller advertised on the London Underground this week too.
You can find Dr Chris’s work featured on our nutrition resource.
Nice…
Even nicer…

NECESSITY
There’s a lot of expectation of wholesale changes on this man’s shoulders.
SATIETY
These date and banana pancakes from Deliciously Ella’s recipe resource will satisfy. Coconut yoghurt, frozen apricots from last summer’s bounty, fresh blueberries and date syrup.
PROGRESS
Two new cancer books released this month: different approaches, same goal: a whole-body approach in healing from cancer.
Here’s the link to Dr Watt’s offering. Both are now featured on our extensive resource of cancer books.
A new book from Professor Longo hit the market this month too. We’ve featured his work on fasting on our Healthy Body resource for some time now, this work shows how it relates to cancer. ‘Decades of research on the fasting and nutrition technology−based studies to defeat cancer in the body, making only tumor cells much more vulnerable to therapy while protecting the healthy cells.’
COMPLETENESS
We all have a ‘missing piece’. These blocks will be used as a visual aid this week. The talk: ‘Cancer Treatment: From a Patient Perspective.’ What’s your missing piece?
