We will be having our first RADICAL HOPE RETREAT on Monday September 26th at the Mercy Center in Auburn for those with a diagnosis of Stage 3 or 4 Cancer or a chronic cancer diagnosis. This Christ centered retreat day will be filled with reflection, prayer, expressive art, walks in the garden, laughs, hand massages and much encouragement and healing! Strict cleanliness will be utilized to keep everyone safe since many will still be on treatment.

I often am asked the question, "Should I take a probiotic?"
The short answer is, "It depends".
The better question is, "What is a Prebiotic and should I take one?"

The short answer for the second quesiton is, "Yes, yes, yes!"

Prebiotic foods were eaten at least once daily by ALL of our ancestors. Salted, pickled, sour vegetables and fruits are a mainstay in every culture.

These prebiotic foods (or buying a powder in the store of prebiotics) helps you make YOUR OWN good bacteria so you likely won't need a probiotic capsule that often only lives inside you for a few days.

GET BACK TO EATING WHAT OUR GREAT GRANDPARENTS ATE! 70% of your immune system is influenced by our intestinal microbiome so spiff it up today!

My husband won't eat olives, pickles or saurerkraut or "funky tasting food", so I just slip in a scoop of prebiotic powder in his oatmeal-- Ha ha!!!!

We don't have to like it, we just have to do it daily!!!

I pray you all are staying healthy as Covid-19 tapers down.

I am seeing new patients who have had or currently have cancer. Ask your primary doctor or oncologist for a referral to Sutter Integrative Oncology in Roseville or Sacramento. I would be happy to see you, and you will also see Dr. Stacy D'Andre, MD. We want to help you build your immune system so that your cancer doesn't find a good environment to grow. Pass the word!

Hoping you and your loved ones are staying well during COVID... Eat half of your day's food as vegetables and if you can take some extra food based Zinc supplements, that will help also...
Here is a prayer tool provided by Pastor Shawn Boltz that will also help you to make a difference during this virus...
Blessings and peace as we transition through this together!

This is a good time to boost your immune system to protect against COVID-19... My sister's recipe:
Fire Cider
4-5 inch piece Horseradish shredded
1/2 c or more Ginger shredded or minced
1/2 c or more fresh Turmeric shredded or minced
1-2 whole heads Garlic minced
(I use a lot of theses top 4 ingrediants, they are potent)
1 lg. Chopped onion
1 small bunch Parsley chopped
2-3 Cinnamon sticks lightly crushed
2 Hot peppers (jalapeno or habenero, depends how hot you want it)chopped
Put everything in a big jar, cover with raw apple cider vinegar, let it sit for at least 4 -6 weeks in a cool dark spot. Strain, add honey if you like it sweet. You can reuse the ingredients , throw em in a blender to chop a little more, add fresh ingredients if you want, add more vinegar... best to use organic ingredients when possible.
