Why do two people with the same diagnosis, the same treatment, and the same odds end up with completely different outcomes?
Dr. Katie Deming spent 20 years as a radiation oncologist before moving into integrative oncology. She watched some patients sail through the hardest treatments while others struggled with side effects she couldn't explain.
Today she shares what she now believes sits underneath those differences, and it comes down to one word: frequency.
Dr. Katie brings in the work of psychiatrist David Hawkins, a story about a man whose daily menu would make any nutritionist wince, and what she's learned from guiding 150 people through water fasts. The most common result she sees probably isn't the one you'd guess.
If you eat clean, exercise, and still carry a quiet worry about your health, this one's for you. Dr. Katie explains why doing "all the right things" can sometimes work against you. Medical professionals will recognize her patient stories and you might recognize yourself.
