My Efforts to Live Consciously

While non-toxic and organic products and foods have recently become the craze in our society, I have believed that there are benefits to living consciously and being aware of the products we use on a day to day basis for some time. This isn’t to say that I believe a 100% non-toxic life will prevent us from getting sick. However, I do think that it can affect how we handle our treatments and long-term side effects, including secondary cancers and relapse.

Opinions in these videos are mine and reflect my personal beliefs and it’s okay if you use or consume any of these products or foods!

In this video, I share with you the 8 products that I have decided to eliminate from my household!

I have also been a vegetarian for eight years now. In 2012, I made the decision to educate myself about eating organic! After being diagnosed with lymphoma, I made the decision to transition to eating less processed foods and being conscious about the foods I consume.

In this video, I share with you foods and ingredients that I do my best to avoid.

We are all here to learn and share our personal experiences and I would love to hear yours! Have you changed any of the foods that you consume or products that you use after your experience with cancer?
