Beating Breast-Cancer Statistics with Dr. Jenn Simmons

from Well Beyond 40 · host JJ Virgin

Do you ever wonder…  How can I avoid breast cancer?   Where does my risk come from?  Should I get a mammogram?  What about hormone-replacement therapy?  If so, join me for an interview with breast-cancer expert and top-ranked surgeon, Dr. Jenn Simmons. In the face of her own health crisis, she began to question standard treatments and her impact as a doctor. What she learned shifted her perspective on cancer treatment and prevention, and may help you decrease your breast-cancer risk.  In this episode, Dr. Simmons shares the shockingly high rate of preventable breast cancer, the prevalent disease type that raises your risk, and the most common cause of death for breast-cancer patients (it’s not the cancer). Plus, we discuss opportunities for change and the habits that can protect your health. If you’ve got breasts, you don’t want to miss this episode!  Full show notes: jjvirgin.com/checklist Learn more about Dr. Jenn Simmons: https://www.realhealthmd.com Subscribe to my podcast: http://subscribetojj.com American Diabetes Association: https://diabetes.org Young Forever by Dr. Mark Hyman: https://amzn.to/3NGxYYf The Schwarzbein Principle by Dr. Diana Shwarzbein: https://amzn.to/3D4waDy Podcast: Rethinking Breast Cancer with Dr. Felice Gersh: https://jjvirgin.com/main-podcast/rethinking-breast-cancer-prevention-with-dr-felice-gersh-ep-573/ Retraction on estrogen replacement and breast cancer: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5415400/ Get Dr. Jenn’s FREE Weekly Checklist: https://tinyurl.com/drjennweeklychecklist Learn more about your ad choices.
