Positive Health Online

This inspiring, authoritative, highly researched  and substantive (450 pages) book combines the dramatic story of Katrina Ellis’ survival and conquest of terminal ovarian cancer over 20 years ago, and is perhaps the finest compilation I have seen of imperatively vital facts for cancer patients, families and support networks and all disciplines of health practitioners:

The fourth edition of the book is comprised of three parts: Katrina’s physical and spiritual journey to uncover the truth and determination to survive; A complete cancer manual ranging from successful natural treatments, the positives and negatives of orthodox treatments and useful techniques to harness the power of your mind; and a resource guide valuable for anyone in preventing this disease whilst maintaining brilliant health. Shattering the Cancer Myth has been rewritten to include new innovative cancer therapies, full supplement support and diet programs for various cancer types, also includes a new chapter by Dr Joachim Fluhrer MD,  an Integrative Medicine Practitioner combining General Practice with evidence based Gene Diagnosis and Complementary Medicine.

She worked for the ex-prime minister of Thailand in his five star health resort, Chiva-Som and managed the ‘natural health department’ and performed consultations, designed an organic food line and co-wrote the Chiva-Som cookbook. While in Thailand she developed a rare form of cancer, after exposure to a toxic agent. After many misdiagnoses and being told she would not live past the year, she embarked on a campaign to save herself with natural medicine.
