Let Food Be Thy Medicine

A Metabolic Approach to Cancer Healing

At Remission Nutrition, we believe in the profound wisdom of the phrase: “Let food be thy medicine.” But what does this mean when it comes to something as serious as cancer?

Rethinking Cancer: Beyond Genetics

Cancer is not only a genetic disease—it's also a metabolic one. This means it thrives in an internal environment marked by inflammation, poor mitochondrial function, blood sugar dysregulation, and toxicity.

The metabolic approach to cancer care is designed to target and transform this internal environment—what we call the “terrain”—into one that cancer struggles to grow in.

How Food Fits In

Food can either feed cancer... or hurt it.

Our nutritional strategies aim to:

• Lower insulin and glucose spikes

• Reduce inflammation

• Support detoxification and immune function

We encourage colorful, antioxidant-rich vegetables, healthy fats, and therapeutic fasting as powerful tools in your wellness toolkit.

The 10 Terrain Tenets of Healing

True healing comes from addressing the whole system. Our approach focuses on ten key areas:

• Mind-Body Connection

• Epigenetics

• Immune Function

• Circadian Rhythm

• Nutrition

• Detoxification

• Inflammation

• Microbiome

• Mitochondrial Health

• Hormone Balance

Each of these "terrain" areas plays a role in determining whether cancer can thrive—or be driven out.

One Size Doesn’t Fit All

Healing is personal. The metabolic approach celebrates bio-individuality, empowering each person to strengthen their body’s own natural intelligence. Whether you're facing a cancer diagnosis or simply want to build resilience, our tailored approach is here to support you.

At Remission Nutrition, we’re here to help you harness the power of food and functional nutrition for deep, systemic healing—rooted in science, personalized for you.
