Ep. 253: Men's Health Matters - Broccoli Rob's Victory Over Testicular Cancer and Mission to Raise Awareness


Listen Later

June is National Men’s Health Month and we’re honored to feature today's guest, Robert Klein, aka "Broccoli Rob." 

In June of 2017, he was unexpectedly diagnosed with testicular cancer, throwing his young family and career into a tailspin.

Research led him to the The China Study and the undeniable benefits of a whole foods, plant-based diet, which he adopted virtually overnight.

Today, he is an avid athlete, health coach, and vocal advocate for men's health. He is a licensed Food for Life Instructor teaching and you can learn more about his upcoming classes HERE.

We hear a lot about the importance of self-exams for women’s breast cancer, but we just don’t hear enough about men’s health and prevention.

Thank you, Robert, for being so open and honest with your journey. It will save lives!
