Allison Huish: Dietician - Surviving Brain Tumor

<p>Allison Huish - a brain tumor survivor - is my guest in this episode. She has been an entrepreneur for over 10 years and lives in Salt Lake City, UT, US. Allison is a registered dietician with a bachelor’s degree in exercise science and a master’s degree in dietetics.</p>

<p>She grew up a healthy girl, but at age 13 she was diagnosed with a brain stem tumor which altered her life forever. In her own words: “Part of my tumor was inoperable and so my teen years were focused on getting healthy, becoming stronger, and ultimately beating the remaining part of my brain tumor. I had success and was able to graduate high school on time and went to college.” Now that tumor is behind her, she continues to take her health seriously. When she is not working, she loves being with her incredible family, running in the canyons, and listening to podcasts.</p>

<p>Highlights from our conversation:</p>

<p>· The food we eat makes us.</p>

<p>· I have friends who reversed serious diseases all from their diets - they have never done chemotherapy. Their cancer went away due to, in part, plant-based green-leafy vegetables.</p>

<p>· Most drugs and a lot of Western medicine are just focusing on symptom management.</p>
