Irwin & Dr Jean

29/07/2025

Here's us eating at our favorite Korean restaurant Oiso Korean Traditional Cuisine & Cafe after a gym session ❤️

Fyi, both me and Jean are big fans of Korean food, and we’re glad there are so many Korean restaurants in KL. 🇰🇷

But we’re not just here to satisfy our Korean food cravings—we’re also here to replenish our gut with probiotic powerhouses, especially those fermented side dishes… but especially kimchi. We love kimchi hehe 😄

Most people don’t realize that traditional Korean meals like these come with a side of gut therapy. 😌

Kimchi isn’t just delicious. It’s packed with Lactobacillus plantarum and other beneficial bacteria that help:

> Balance your gut microbiome
> Strengthen your immune system
> And even support the fight against cancer

Probiotics from fermented foods have been shown to enhance immune responses, reduce inflammation, and improve chemo tolerance (Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021).

A healthy gut microbiome may also help slow cancer progression and boost response to treatments (Nature Reviews Cancer, 2020).

And yes—kimchi itself has been found to have anticancer effects, especially against colorectal cancer cells (Journal of Medicinal Food, 2014).

So while it may look like we’re just enjoying a good meal (which we are 😋), we’re also continuing to nourish our bodies, protect our health, and walk this healing journey together.

CHEMO CAUSES CANCER TO SPREAD?

My Thoughts After Reading the Latest Study...⁣
— From Dr. Jean⁣
⁣
A new study from China really shook me.⁣
⁣
It found that certain chemotherapy drugs — like doxorubicin and cisplatin — can unintentionally wake up dormant cancer cells and create an environment where they can spread more easily to places like the lungs.⁣
⁣
How?⁣
These drugs damage healthy fibroblast cells in your body, pushing them into a state called senescence.⁣
Once senescent, these cells start releasing harmful proteins that create a "fertile ground" for cancer to grow and spread.⁣
⁣
This study was published in Cancer Cell, one of the world’s most respected journals.⁣
⁣
And as someone who’s walked through this battle personally — as both a wife and a doctor — it brought up a lot of emotion.⁣
⁣
During Irwin’s cancer treatment, we were constantly told:⁣
“You need chemo.”⁣
“You have no other option.”⁣
“Do the high-dose — it's your best shot.”⁣
⁣
And yes — Irwin did go through low-dose chemo in the beginning.⁣
We didn’t have much of a choice then.⁣
It was aggressive, and we needed to act fast.⁣
⁣
But when they pushed him to go for autologous high-dose chemo, something in him said no.⁣
⁣
And here’s the truth:⁣
At that time, I was angry.⁣
⁣
I didn’t understand why he’d reject it.⁣
I felt he was risking everything.⁣
I believed more chemo meant more chance of survival.⁣
⁣
But Irwin?⁣
He was in the cancer ward every day.⁣
He saw what I didn’t.⁣
He listened to real patient stories:⁣
⁣
People who went through high-dose chemo… and the cancer still came back.⁣
⁣
Patients who developed autoimmune diseases one or two years later.⁣
⁣
Others did the high dose chemo — and passed away.⁣
⁣
🛑 That was the turning point.⁣
⁣
And thank God Irwin didn’t go through with high-dose.⁣
⁣
We decided to try immunotherapy instead — hoping for something less damaging.⁣

But the real shift happened when we slowly moved away from all of it... and focused fully on:⁣
⁣
✅ Clean, healing food⁣
✅ Natural herbal medicine⁣
✅ Detox and cell repair⁣
✅ Lifestyle change⁣
✅ And most importantly — deep faith, prayer, and emotional healing⁣
⁣
We realized that if you give the body the right tools…⁣
It knows how to heal.⁣
It knows how to fight.⁣
And it wants to return to balance.⁣
⁣
So if this study makes you feel afraid… I understand.⁣
But don’t let fear be the driver.⁣
⁣
Because if you support your immune system — deeply and intentionally —⁣ You can walk through cancer with hope, clarity, and strength.⁣
⁣
Irwin is living proof.⁣
⁣
Today, he is alive. Not just surviving — but thriving.⁣
And we’re here to help others do the same.⁣
⁣
You always have a choice.⁣
Trust your body.⁣
Trust God.⁣
And never be bullied into thinking you don’t have options.⁣
⁣
With love and fire,⁣
– Dr. Jean⁣
⁣
💬 If you’re currently going through cancer and don’t know where to start… we are more than ready to guide you.⁣
This is what we do.⁣
⁣
Just comment “GUIDE” below, and either Irwin or I will personally reach out to walk with you on your healing journey.⁣
You're not alone anymore.⁣

To be honest with you, I hate my oncologist.⁣⁣
Because according to him, there is no other way—except his way.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
And his way?⁣⁣
The worst way to live:⁣⁣
➡️ Immunotherapy every 3 weeks until the day I die.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Like seriously…⁣⁣
What kind of stupid idiot would agree to that?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
#1 – Financially?⁣⁣
RM20,000 per treatment.⁣⁣
Every 3 weeks.⁣⁣
That’s nearly RM350,000 a year, just to survive… not to heal.⁣⁣
You do the math.⁣⁣
This is the fastest path to lifelong debt.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
And for the doctor? Jackpot lah.⁣⁣
He makes a killing from me—⁣⁣
like a blood-sucking vampire, draining not just my blood, but my savings too. drain until negative pun still drain lah. Drain everything lah if like that, just drain all the cells and atoms of my body until there is nothing.⁣
⁣⁣
#2 – Quality of Life?⁣⁣
Let’s be real:⁣⁣
Who wants to live like that?⁣⁣
Constant pain, fatigue, brain fog.⁣⁣
Unable to work.⁣⁣
Unable to live a normal life.⁣⁣
Just waiting for the next injection... and the next side effect.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
That sucks.⁣⁣
So one day, I snapped.⁣⁣
I told him straight:⁣⁣
“This is bullsh*t. ”⁣⁣
And I walked out.⁣⁣
Never looked back. Never regretted it.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
In fact…⁣⁣
That moment?⁣⁣
Was the most powerful decision of my life.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
📍Fast forward:⁣⁣
I’ve been in remission since September 2023.⁣⁣
PET scan clean.⁣⁣
Almost 2 years now.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
But don’t get it twisted.⁣⁣
I didn’t just walk out blindly.⁣⁣
I had a Plan B.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
That plan included food, mindset, God, movement…⁣⁣
And the one thing he told me not to waste time on:⁣⁣
HERBS.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Yes, herbs.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Not folklore.⁣ Not superstition.⁣⁣
But powerful, science-backed healing agents.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Let me break it down:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
✅ Turmeric (Curcumin)⁣⁣
– Inhibits tumor growth, angiogenesis & metastasis⁣⁣
⁣(Cancer Letters (2008), “Curcumin: The Indian Solid Gold”⁣)⁣
⁣⁣
✅ Moringa Oleifera⁣⁣
– Selectively kills cancer cells, protects healthy ones⁣⁣
(⁣Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention (2014)⁣)⁣
⁣⁣
✅ Graviola, Astragalus, Green Tea (EGCG)⁣⁣
– All with proven anti-cancer and immune-support effects⁣⁣
⁣Numerous studies, PubMed indexed⁣⁣
⁣⁣
But the biggest turning point?⁣⁣
A Siddha herb called Pshapadu.⁣⁣
Not sold in pharmacies.⁣⁣
Not endorsed by hospitals.⁣⁣
But it changed my life.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
After taking it:⁣⁣
My body felt stronger.⁣⁣
My labs got better.⁣⁣
My PET scan came back clean.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
So again I ask:⁣⁣
If herbs don’t work…⁣⁣
Why am I still here?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Could it be that they just don’t want us to know?⁣⁣
That healing doesn’t have to be expensive?⁣⁣
That nature works?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I wonder...⁣⁣
Are they really that ignorant?⁣⁣
Or is it because their job, their KPI, their bonus,⁣ depends on us staying sick?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
🤔 Curious, isn’t it?

Let's face it. Chemo sucks. I hate it.... Until I learn to be friends with it.⁣
⁣
So what did I do? I changed the way I think about chemo. ⁣
⁣
And here’s the exact mindset trick I used to survive chemo.⁣
⁣
When that chemo drip started flowing into my body…⁣
⁣
…I didn’t see it as “poison.” (Even though I used to)⁣
⁣
I closed my eyes and visualised it as liquid light — entering me, like an army of stormtroopers shooting light beams, hunting down every last cancer cell.⁣
⁣
In my mind, it wasn’t harming me.⁣
It was helping me.⁣
It was working FOR me.⁣
⁣
Why do I do this?⁣
⁣
Because your mind can shift how your body responds to treatment.⁣
⁣
I learned this from the Silva Method — and later from Dr. Joe Dispenza.⁣
⁣
They teach that when you visualise healing and combine it with elevated emotions (like hope or gratitude), your brain starts creating real biological changes. Measurable ones.⁣
⁣
👉 Some studies show that positive mental imagery can improve immune function.⁣
👉 Others show better treatment outcomes when patients believe the therapy will work.⁣
⁣
So this isn’t wishful thinking. It’s a way to rewire how your body experiences chemo.⁣
⁣
Every session, I reminded myself:⁣
⁣
“This light is here to heal me. Only the cancer dies. I live.”⁣
⁣
And that small shift?⁣
⁣
It made a big difference. I don't really hate chemo anymore. In fact, as you can see in the picture (throwback), I even read books when chemo is entering my body. I know I look terrible lol⁣
⁣
So once I took care of the mindset part, next would be nutrition. Me and Dr Jean make sure that I took enough nutrition to ensure my cells are properly nourished.⁣
⁣
Want to know what nutrition I took? DM "Guidance" to get in touch with me and Dr Jean so we can properly share with you the exact nutrition that I personally took to achieve faster recovery.

Most people don’t realize this… but we all have cancer cells in our body. Even right now.⁣
⁣
That sounds terrifying — but it’s true.⁣
And it’s not something to panic about…⁣
Unless your immune system stops doing its job.⁣
⁣
Me and Irwin have been helping cancer patients long enough to see a pattern:⁣
⁣
Cancer doesn’t usually come out of nowhere.⁣
It grows silently, in the background — while your immune system is distracted, inflamed, or too weak to respond.⁣
⁣
Every day, your body creates new cells.⁣
⁣
Some of them mutate.⁣
⁣
These are potentially cancerous cells — and that’s completely normal.⁣
⁣
But here’s where it becomes dangerous:⁣
✅ Your T-cells and B-cells (lymphocytes) are supposed to find and destroy those cells before they become tumors.⁣
✅ When these immune cells are healthy, they catch the threat early.⁣
✅ But when your immune system is suppressed or overwhelmed, cancer cells escape detection — and that’s when the real problem starts.⁣
⁣
A study published in Nature Reviews Cancer explains this exact process.⁣
It’s called immune surveillance — and when it works, you stay safe.⁣
But when it breaks down, cancer grows unnoticed.⁣
(Dunn et al., 2002 & 2004)⁣
⁣
Another study from Johns Hopkins revealed that the average healthy adult may produce thousands of potentially cancerous cells daily — but most never develop cancer, because the immune system clears them out.⁣
(Tomasetti & Vogelstein, Science, 2015)⁣
⁣
This is why we always emphasize one simple step:⁣
⁣
🩸 Check your lymphocyte count regularly.⁣
(You’ll find it in a basic blood test called a CBC.)⁣
It’s one of the easiest and most overlooked ways to detect if your body’s internal defense system is still working like it should.⁣
⁣
Support your lymphocytes.⁣
Support your gut.⁣
Reduce your stress load.⁣
And give your body what it needs to protect you — quietly, powerfully, every single day.⁣
⁣
If you or someone you love is facing cancer right now, or just wants to know where to start with prevention — you don’t have to walk this alone.⁣
⁣
Me and Irwin offer personal consultations to help guide patients through both natural and conventional options, so you can make informed, confident choices.⁣

What if I told you one cup of matcha could help your body respond better to cancer treatment?⁣
⁣
Sounds simple, but the science behind it is worth paying attention to.⁣
⁣
Me and Irwin recently been obsessed with matcha, and we occasionally make our own at home. Not just because it tastes good—but because of what it does inside the body.⁣
⁣
Matcha is packed with EGCG (Epigallocatechin gallate), a powerful plant compound found in green tea. ⁣
⁣
But because matcha uses the whole leaf, you get much more EGCG than in regular steeped tea.⁣
⁣
Now here’s the interesting part:⁣
⁣
✅ EGCG has been shown to help the body fight cancer on multiple levels.⁣
– It suppresses the growth of cancer cells and even triggers them to self-destruct (Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 2002).⁣
– It cuts off the blood supply that tumors need to grow (a process called anti-angiogenesis) (Carcinogenesis, 2005).⁣
– It can even enhance the effect of chemotherapy and protect healthy cells at the same time (Cancer Letters, 2011).⁣
⁣
But that’s not all.⁣
⁣
EGCG also plays a huge role in gut health—which we now know is deeply connected to immune function and cancer defense.⁣
⁣
– It reduces inflammation in the gut and strengthens the gut lining (Nutrients, 2019).⁣
– It supports the growth of beneficial gut bacteria and improves microbial balance (Frontiers in Nutrition, 2020).⁣
⁣
– And while more research is still ongoing, scientists believe it may help create an ideal environment for key immune-supporting bacteria like Akkermansia muciniphila to grow—this is the same bacteria linked to better results in cancer immunotherapy (Science, Routy et al., 2018).⁣
⁣
We’re not saying matcha is a cure. But it’s a small, powerful habit that supports your immune system, your gut, and your healing.⁣
⁣
If you’re going through cancer and need guidance on where to start—you're not alone.⁣
⁣
Me and Irwin offer personal consultations to help patients explore their treatment options—whether conventional, natural, or a blend of both.⁣

Can Herbs & Diet Kill Cancer Stem Cells? What My Wife & I Found Out⁣
⁣
Ever since going through cancer, my wife and I have been on a mission — not just to heal, but to understand. And one thing we discovered really opened our eyes: Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs).⁣
⁣
These aren’t ordinary cancer cells. They’re the roots.⁣
Even after chemo or treatment, CSCs can survive, hide, and regrow the tumor. That’s why some cancers come back, stronger than before.⁣
⁣
So we asked:⁣
Is there a natural way to fight back?⁣
⁣
We dug into research, and here’s what we found — certain natural compounds and herbs have shown potential (in lab and animal studies) to weaken or even kill CSCs:⁣
⁣
🟡 Curcumin (from turmeric) — disrupts cancer signals⁣
🟢 Sulforaphane (broccoli sprouts) — detoxes and targets roots⁣
🍵 EGCG (green tea) — blocks CSC growth⁣
🍇 Resveratrol (grapes/berries) — breaks down cancer pathways⁣
🌿 Honokiol (magnolia bark) — destroys stem-like cancer cells⁣
⁣
We’re not doctors (well, not Irwin hehe) We’re just two people learning, praying, and doing our best. But this changed how we eat and think. More fresh food, less sugar. More sprouts, tea, turmeric — all with the intention of protecting what God gave us.⁣
⁣
We believe healing isn’t just medical. It’s spiritual, natural, and intentional.⁣
⁣
If you’re a cancer fighter, survivor, or just trying to live better — you’re not alone.⁣
⁣
We’re in this together.⁣

It’s been a while since my last post — life’s been moving fast, but I’m back with something a little... flushy 😅

Trying out a salt water detox recently.

That’s 1.5 liters of warm salt water in under 30 minutes — not the tastiest thing in the world (ocean soup, anyone?), but it’s my go-to for clearing out the gut gunk — undigested food, old waste, and toxins that build up over time.

Why bother?
Because when your gut’s clean, everything runs better — digestion, energy, focus, immunity, even your mood. The science is there: the gut-brain axis is real, and maintaining gut health helps reduce inflammation and support overall well-being.

Also, here’s a little life hack I’ve figured out —
I use a flexible pipe/straw so I can sip it slowly while working at my desk. No need to chug like a maniac or pause productivity.

Multitasking level: unlocked hehe

Still not for the faint of heart (or weak of toilet proximity 💨), but worth trying once in a while.

Shalom everyone, I want to share about an event hosted by Father Eugene Benedict. It’s a cancer meetup at a healthy organic restaurant in Subang Jaya next Monday, 10am to 1pm.

If you know anyone who is fighting cancer, or a caregiver of a cancer patients, please ask them to join this event, so they can talk to other cancer patients and survivors and gain better knowledge to fight and prevent cancer. it’s happening next Monday 10am to 1pm.

Meals are fully sponsored, but limited to 20pax only ya.

FYI, Father Eugene has always been a strong cancer advocacy and he helped me so much during my cancer fighting days as well 🙏😇

He has such a vast knowledge in cancer fighting and prevention knowledge. But this is a casual meetup and talk session, so I'm sure everyone can learn from each other on how to fight the Big C.
