In this episode of Keeping Abreast, I sit down with Lynn Oberstein Feder, a passionate mother, baker, and wellness advocate whose lifelong health journey led her to profound transformation—both personally and professionally.

Lynn shares her early struggles with chronic illness and the cascade of misdiagnoses and overuse of antibiotics that left her searching for answers. We talk about the toll of conventional medicine, the power of homeopathic remedies, and the critical importance of finding a provider who truly listens.

Through her experience, Lynn discovered not just better health, but a calling. Motivated by her daughter’s dietary restrictions, she began developing nutrient-dense, gluten-free breads that eventually blossomed into her business, Lynn's Life Breads.

It’s a bold, necessary conversation about empowering patients, reimagining cancer care, and building a future where treatment is rooted in innovation, integrity, and true healing.

In This Episode, You Will Learn:

• Dr. Goodyear's personal health crisis inspired a complete shift in his approach to cancer care.
• The “fight” against cancer often becomes a fight against the body—integrative medicine aims to heal, not battle.
• Cancer is part of the immune system—understanding that changes everything.
• Cryoablation offers a powerful, less invasive alternative to surgery with promising outcomes.
• Lifestyle, stress, diet, and toxins play a critical role in cancer development and recurrence.
• Epigenetic changes can pass through generations, altering cancer risk.
• Mammograms may not be as protective as once believed—and may lead to overtreatment.
• The healthcare system often incentivizes drugs over real healing.
