@drdawnmussallem spent 25 years at Mayo Clinic, survived stage 4 cancer at 26, lived for years with 8% heart function, and ran a full marathon one year after her heart transplant.

She joined me on the BeingBrigid Show this week to break down the link between blood sugar and breast cancer.

We covered so much!
+Why women with higher insulin had a 34% higher risk of breast cancer
+The fasting insulin range she wants you in (a “normal” 12 on your lab report isn’t it)
+The half cup of food a day linked to an 88% drop in hot flashes
+Why this longtime vegan added fish and eggs back after her own testing
+The purple vegetable she eats every single day 

What amazes me about Dr. Mussallem is her true love for life.

Given that she had a near-death experience, she values the preciousness of life in a way that is very unique. She exudes joy! I left the interview feeling like a better person!
