Given Months, Living For Years: A Father’s Fight Against an Ultra-Aggressive Form of Cancer

He was given four months to live, but Jimmy Blanco refused to die.   It didn’t matter that doctors diagnosed him with an ultra-aggressive and fast-growing form of brain cancer known as glioblastoma multiforme. All that mattered was that he was a young father who wanted to be there for his children. So he set out to fight the tumor on his terms.   It was a battle fought with comprehensive nutrition research, dramatic changes to his diet and lifestyle, and unwavering faith. The fight lasted not for the four months that doctors had predicted, but for nearly 10 years.   He began writing about what he learned and chronicled his successes to share with others so that they too could find hope in their darkest hour. Years after his passing, his daughter, Jamie Blanco, finished the book her father started. She delved deeper into the nutrition research which has become more abundant than what was available to her father.   Jamie joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll to talk about her father’s journey and finishing his book, Hope for the Hopeless. — — — Hope for the Hopeless Book: https://amzn.to/3Y0ySmT Virtual Book Signing: https://bit.ly/HopeBookSigning — — — Jamie Blanco Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hopeforthehopelessbook Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/hopeforthehopelessbook Twitter: https://twitter.com/JBlancoNewsie Website: https://www.hopeforthehopelessbook.com — — — Chuck Carroll Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ChuckCarrollWLC Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/ChuckCarrollWLC Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChuckCarrollWLC — — — Physicians Committee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/physicianscommittee Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PCRM.org Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/pcrm — — — 21-Day Vegan Kickstart App iOS: https://bit.ly/VegKStrt-iOS Android: https://bit.ly/VegKStrtAndrd Web: https://www.pcrm.org/kickstart — — — Barnard Medical Center Appointments https://bit.ly/BMCtelemed 202-527-7500 — — — Share the Show Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or many other podcast providers.

Feeling Young Again | Howie Jacobson, PhD

You can feel young again by making simple changes that work for you.   Howie Jacobson, PhD is co-author of Whole with T. Colin Campbell and Proteinaholic with Dr. Garth Davis. He also knows small changes can have a massive impact.   Howie felt like an old man by the time he was 35. His health was beginning to decline as his blood pressure and cholesterol climbed ever higher.   He felt like a genetic time bomb was about to explode given his family's poor health history. He feared that it could go off at any moment and his time would be up.   Tired of living with a dark cloud hanging overhead, he vowed to change what he could. And that began by overhauling his diet.   The changes not only restored his health but turned back the hands of time and continue to prevent the genetic time bomb from going off.   Howie joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll to share his inspirational long and winding journey to health. Like many of us, there were plenty of stumbles along the way. But in the end he persevered.
