Mission: Remission
My name is Dr. Lisa Price and many of you know of my work
with cancer patients and nutrition during conventional cancer treatment. I’ve
written three books on the subject (Demos Health Publishing, Inc.) and I am
passionate about getting correct and the most helpful information to my
patients. I am also passionate about them having access to organic whole foods
during treatment.
Science backs that food and
nutrition can affect cancer outcome, remission; side effects during treatment
and quality of life. Currently three problems exist that this project will
tackle:
- Curated science-based information on nutrition
during conventional cancer treatment and beyond for patients, and their support
groups and providers. Too many sites promote gimmicks and dangerous, erroneous information
- Dispel of myths that might be costly
or even dangerous to patients during treatment and beyond
- Access to whole food, organic products for
patients via partnership building with progressive companies on the West Coast.
The project will seek to create access to organic produce and other foods shipped
directly to cancer patients’ homes
+ Production of 8 high quality videos for cancer
patients, their family, friends; and for oncologists and cancer health care
teams
The videos will provide:
+ The best and safest nutrition information which
will affect quality of life and possibly outcome
+ Dispel dangerous myths, and those that may be
very costly to cancer patients as well
+ Include a helpful recipe plus nutrition
information on foods used
The project will build partnerships that will:
+ Provide access of organic produce to cancer
patients and their care givers at low to no cost during treatment.
We can
all help cancer patients. Because I have the access, expertise and
relationships, I’m asking you to help me get it started. You as a contributor
are also my co-creator and science advocate for patients. You will be at the
forefront of our piece of cancer survivorship. Production and access costs for
this project will be $6,518.
