Renegade Remission: Holistic Healing and Nutrition for Chronic and Terminal Illness, Cancer, ALS, MS, Dementia, Heart Disease

46. When Healing Happens Anyway: Real Stories of People Who Defied Terminal Diagnoses | Hope for Cancer, Dementia, Alzheimer's, MS, ALS, Heart Disease

Some people are told they’re terminal… and their bodies heal anyway. Today, I want to show you how that actually happens. In this deeply human episode of Renegade Remission, we explore three true stories of people who healed or stabilized from illnesses considered terminal. These stories come from different worlds. One is a memoir-based Radical Remission account. One is a peer-reviewed medical case that surprised an entire oncology team. One is a documented neurological recovery in a condition long believed to be irreversible. Together, they offer something rare and grounding. Not false promises, but real examples of how adaptable and responsive the human body can be, even when the odds appear overwhelming. In this episode, you’ll discover: 1. A Radical Remission story from someone whose Stage IV cancer recovery defied every expectation 2. A medically documented spontaneous remission that left doctors searching for explanations 3. A neurological recovery showing that even progressive conditions can shift under the right conditions 4. The common biological and emotional themes that appear across these very different recoveries 5. Why prognosis cannot account for immune reactivation, nervous system regulation, or human resilience These stories are not about guarantees. They are about possibility, biology, and what can happen when the internal environment begins to change. Listen now to ground yourself in real, documented stories of healing that go beyond statistics and timelines. Whether you are facing cancer, neurodegenerative disease, heart disease, or another serious diagnosis, this episode offers perspective, steadiness, and evidence that the body is often more capable than we are led to believe.

45. Why Doctors Get Prognosis Wrong and What Unexpected Survivors Teach Us About What’s Possible | Hope for Cancer, Dementia, Alzheimer's, MS, ALS, Heart Disease

What if the timeline you were given isn’t a prediction of your future but simply a rough guess based on other people’s outcomes? In this powerful episode of Renegade Remission, we explore why medical prognoses so often miss the mark, not because doctors are careless, but because human biology is far more adaptive and unpredictable than survival statistics can capture. You’ll learn how prognoses are actually created, why they fail so frequently across cancer, neurodegenerative disease, heart failure, and chronic illness, and what science reveals about the people who outlive even the most sobering predictions. Through a documented case of unexpected survival and clear explanations of immune function, stress physiology, epigenetics, and functional status, this episode reframes prognosis as information, not fate. In this episode, you’ll discover: 1. Why prognoses are based on population averages — not individual biology 2. How often doctors get life expectancy wrong (and why that matters for you) 3. The biological factors that allow some people to far outlive expectations 4. Why function, resilience, and internal environment matter more than a single diagnosis 5. How the immune system, nervous system, microbiome, and gene expression can shift over time 6. Simple ways to support the same internal pathways seen in people who become medical “surprises” This episode isn’t about denying reality, it’s about understanding it more fully. Listen now to release the weight of a timeline that may not belong to you, and to reconnect with the truth that biology is dynamic, adaptable, and full of possibility. Whether you’re facing cancer, a neurodegenerative disease, heart disease, or another serious diagnosis, this episode offers clarity, grounding, and a renewed sense of what may still be possible.

44. Can the Body Heal Without Treatment? What Real Spontaneous Remissions Reveal About Your Own Healing Potential | Hope for Cancer, Dementia, Alzheimer's, MS, ALS, Heart Disease

What if the body is capable of healing in ways medicine doesn’t fully understand, even after a terminal or “incurable” diagnosis? In this eye-opening episode of Renegade Remission, we explore one of the most misunderstood — and hopeful — phenomena in medicine: spontaneous remission. Contrary to what most patients are told, spontaneous remission is not myth, magic, or wishful thinking. It is medically documented across cancer, autoimmune disease, neurological conditions, cardiovascular illness, and more, often in cases where recovery was never expected. Through real, peer-reviewed case studies and decades of research, this episode reveals how the immune system, nervous system, inflammation, stress biology, and gene expression can sometimes shift in ways that allow healing to unfold unexpectedly. In this episode, you’ll discover: 1. What spontaneous remission actually is — and what it is not 2. A documented case where aggressive cancer began shrinking before treatment started 3. Why the immune system can sometimes “wake up” and recognize disease again 4. How inflammation, stress hormones, and emotional shifts influence healing biology 5. Why genes are not fixed — and how healing pathways can turn back on 6. What spontaneous remission teaches us about possibility, not pressure This episode isn’t about false promises or magical thinking — it’s about understanding how dynamic, adaptive, and surprising the human body truly is. Listen now to explore real cases of spontaneous healing and learn how to support the same biological pathways that appear again and again in remission stories. This episode will expand what you believe is possible — and help you take grounded, empowering steps toward healing today.

43. The 7 Patterns Shared by People Who Beat Terminal Diagnoses | Hope for Cancer, Dementia, Alzheimer's, MS, ALS, Heart Disease

What if people who beat terminal diagnoses aren’t lucky outliers, but individuals who tapped into the same repeatable healing patterns? In this powerful episode of Renegade Remission, we explore seven consistent patterns that appear again and again in people who defied terminal or “incurable” diagnoses — across cancer, autoimmune disease, neurological conditions, heart disease, and more. These patterns come from peer-reviewed spontaneous remission literature, functional medicine case databases, oncology survivorship research, and thousands of documented recovery stories. Despite wildly different diagnoses and treatment paths, the same biological, emotional, and lifestyle themes keep showing up. This episode reframes healing not as a miracle reserved for a few — but as a set of human patterns that create an internal environment where healing becomes more biologically possible. In this episode, you’ll discover: 1. The seven most common patterns shared by people who outlived terminal prognoses 2. Why reducing inflammation, stress, and toxic burden matters more than perfection 3. How the immune and nervous systems respond to safety, connection, and purpose 4. Why emotional shifts, trauma resolution, and meaning change biology — not just mindset 5. How community, support, and integrative approaches consistently improve outcomes 6. Why healing works best as an ecosystem, not a single protocol You’ll also learn why these patterns are not a checklist — and how small, imperfect steps can still shift your biology toward resilience. Listen now to discover the seven healing patterns shared by people who defied terminal diagnoses — and learn how to begin aligning your body, nervous system, and immune system with those same pathways today. This episode offers grounded hope, scientific context, and practical steps you can start without overwhelm. Disclaimer This podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.
