Dr. Laura Kerns (Oncology Nutritionist) and Kaylee Vincent (Licensed Acupuncturist) discuss the integration of Eastern and Western medicine in breast cancer treatment, including needles, pills and …. is there enema more? 

Laura and Kaylee shed light on Eastern medicine, specifically acupuncture, and its principles, such as using needles, herbal medicine, acupressure, and cupping to rebalance the body. The conversation delves into how Eastern medicine and Western medicine differ in terms of history and practices. Eastern medicine draws on centuries of tradition and uses natural remedies, while Western medicine is relatively new and focuses on pharmaceutical interventions. East Meets West emphasize the benefits of integrating both approaches to cancer treatment, addressing symptoms like nausea, pain, and neuropathy.

Amanda has been through an incredibly challenging journey since her double mastectomy at just 27 years old. After initially getting the all-clear, Amanda was again diagnosed with cancer and endured a lumpectomy. Although she received another all-clear, her cancer was later diagnosed (a third time) as metastatic and had spread to her liver. Nine years since her initial diagnosis and despite all these obstacles, Amanda continues to defy the odds and live life to the fullest. Her story is the pinnacle of inspiration, and we can all learn from her incredible resilience, positivity, and love for life.
