Description
Today, more than ever before, people are searching for an approach to managing their health that is broader, more holistic, and integrates the best of modern medicine and health, healing and support of immune system and the body’s capacity to heal. This is particularly true for those dealing with a diagnosis of cancer or those wishing to play an active role in reducing their risk of cancer. In this webinar, Dr. Hal Gunn, MD, a respected integrative physician and co-founder of Canada’s foremost integrated cancer care centre, will discuss the healing potential of the human body and the role of the mind, body and spirit in health and recovery. He will review the evidence that the body’s environment and immune system function play a greater role in determining survival than the tumour itself and the important role of such modalities as vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, nutrition, exercise, melatonin and other complementary approaches that support immune function, reduce recurrence and improve survival. This webinar is ideal for people with cancer who wish to play an active role in their own healing and recovery or those who wish to reduce their risk of developing cancer, as well as for complementary and conventional health practitioners.
