Fasting, Prolon, and timing for cancer patients

Dr Dawn Mussallem’s life has defied all odds. After surviving stage 4 cancer, severe heart failure, and a heart transplant, she ran a marathon just one year later. In this conversation, I sit down with Dawn as she shares what she’s learned about resilience, faith, and the science of healing.

We explore the mindset behind recovery, how food and lifestyle can prevent disease, and the lessons from decades of cancer research and clinical care. It’s a deeply human discussion on what it means to live with intention, vitality, and compassion.

What We Cover

• Mindset, purpose, and finding meaning in adversity
• Plant-based diets for cancer prevention and metabolic health
• Fasting, sleep, and stress management
• Supplements, Omega-3s, and key nutrients to focus on
• Myths about seed oils, soy, and grains
• GLP-1 medications, muscle preservation, and weight management
• Why connection, joy, and movement are central to longevity

A testament to the strength of the human spirit—and a guide to living better, not just longer.
