YOUTUBE CHANNEL - https://www.youtube.com/krocksinthekitchen WEBSITE - https://krocksinthekitchen.com INSTAGRAM - https://www.instagram.com/krocksinthekitchen FACEBOOK - https://www.facebook.com/KrocksInTheKitchen Brian & Jessica Krock are a married couple who live near St. Louis, Missouri. They started on a life-changing whole food, plant-based adventure back in June 2018. This led to a YouTube channel called “Krocks In The Kitchen,” where they have shared plant-based recipes, laughs, tears and so much more over the years. In June 2022, their lives were flipped upside-down when Jessica was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer at age 36. Treatment would include two major surgeries and six rounds of chemo, but that didn’t stop the couple from pursuing their dream of being parents. In October 2023, they welcomed their first child, a beautiful baby girl, via gestational carrier. Just when it seemed things were settling down, in May 2024, their lives took another major turn when Brian was diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma at age 41. Even with all of these bumps in the road, they have continued to maintain a (mostly) positive outlook on life and allowed the hard times to strengthen their marriage. They hope to continue spreading positivity in the plant-based community and beyond for years to come.

Yet, from that point on your world has been changed forever. You enter a vast terrain of uncertainty, isolation and insecurity when you finish treatment for cancer. What is it like to face daily life now that you are finished with treatment? Fear of recurrence, anxiety and depression related to uncertainty, along with loss and financial difficulties, as well as concerns around sexuality are all a part of this new territory. You may feel alone and distressed. You have all the knowledge within you to understand and create your own healing but sometimes you need guidance to help you find where you are and support you in discovering where you want to go.” Excerpt from Surviving the Storm: A Workbook for Telling Your Cancer Story by Cheryl Krauter, MFT Let’s build a conversation on how those who have been diagnosed with cancer can find ways to thrive and engage meaningfully in their lives as they navigate their diagnosis.

His primary focus is on the association between diet and disease, particularly cancer. Although largely known for the China Study--one of the most comprehensive studies of health and nutrition ever conducted, and recognized by The New York Times as the “Grand Prix of epidemiology”--Dr. Campbell’s profound impact also includes extensive involvement in education, public policy, and laboratory research. Dr. Campbell grew up on a dairy farm and was the first in his family to go to college, where he studied pre-veterinary medicine at Pennsylvania State University. After obtaining his bachelor’s degree, and while completing his first year at the University of Georgia veterinary school, he received a telegram from a well known professor at Cornell University, offering a scholarship and research opportunity too good to turn down. And so he completed his education at Cornell University (M.S., Ph.D.) and MIT (Research Associate) in nutrition, biochemistry and toxicology. He then spent 10 years on the faculty of Virginia Tech’s Department of Biochemistry and Nutrition before returning to Cornell in 1975 where he presently holds his Endowed Chair as the Jacob Gould Schurman Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry in the Division of Nutritional Sciences. Dr. Campbell’s research experience includes both laboratory experiments and large-scale human studies. He has received over 70 grant-years of peer-reviewed research funding (mostly with NIH), served on grant review panels of multiple funding agencies, actively participated in the development of national and international nutrition policy, and authored over 350 research papers, most published in peer-reviewed science journals. Throughout his career, he has confronted a great deal of confusion surrounding nutrition and its effects. It is precisely this confusion that he has focused so much on, in recent years. In order to synthesize the findings of his long and rewarding career, and to give back to the public whose lives are threatened by rampant misinformation and special interests, Dr. Campbell co-wrote The China Study: Startling Implications for Diet, Weight Loss and Long-term Health (2005, 2016), which has sold more than 3 million copies worldwide and has been translated into 50 foreign languages. He is also the author of the The New York Times bestseller Whole (2013), The Low Carb Fraud (2013), and The Future of Nutrition. An Insider's Look at the Science, Why We Keep Getting It Wrong and How to Start Getting It Right (2020). Several documentary films feature Dr. Campbell and his research, including Forks Over Knives, Eating You Alive, Food Matters, and PlantPure Nation. He continues to share evidence-based information on health and nutrition whenever given the opportunity. He has delivered hundreds of lectures around the world and he is the founder of the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies and the online Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate powered by eCornell.
