    NEW: FUN-ctional Nutrition: Cancer Expert Joins Saranne

    Today on Beating Cancer Daily, Saranne brings together decades of survivorship wisdom and the power of laughter to spotlight the transformative potential of functional nutrition for cancer thrivers. After launching the ComedyCures Foundation from the chemo chair during her first treatment for Stage IV cancer, Saranne has built a community focused on self-care and empowerment. In this episode, she is joined by recurring expert Jacqui Bryan to unpack what makes functional nutrition both fun and foundational, especially for those facing cancer. Together, they explore root cause resolution, whole-body systems, and practical strategies for self-advocacy in health, always with a dose of playfulness and resilience.   Jacqui Bryan joins as a certified nutrition specialist, registered nurse, whole health educator, and certified health coach who is now a doctoral candidate in integrative nutrition. With two master's degrees, one in functional nutrition, Jacqui's passion for personalized, evidence-based care shines as she shares her journey from collegiate athlete and RN to cancer survivor, functional nutritionist, and teacher. Through over 100 episodes with Saranne, Jacqui has empowered listeners to engage with self-care, holistic healing, and tailored nutrition strategies.   "Functional nutrition looks at the root causes of disease rather than merely treating a symptom...functional medicine looks at root cause resolution, and it is a personalized approach, which is why I love it." ~Jacqui Bryan   Today on Beating Cancer Daily: ·     Functional nutrition emphasizes root cause resolution over treating isolated symptoms. ·     A personalized, individualized approach is key, nutrition plans are tailored to each person’s genetics, lifestyle, and environment. ·     Medical professionals are not immune; survivorship brings reckoning, self-investigation, and the opportunity for empowerment. ·     Functional nutrition considers not just diet, but sleep, stress, exercise, and social connection as part of holistic care. ·     There is a shift away from the "band-aid" approach, focusing on supporting the body's systems and restoring balance. ·     Self-care is foundational, organ health, immune support, and nutritional choices all contribute to cancer recovery and prevention. ·     Community and therapeutic relationships empower patients to take ownership of their health journey. ·     Environmental toxins and processed foods, including microplastics and chemical additives, are highlighted as key factors influencing cancer risk and recovery.   2025 People’s Choice Podcast Awards Best Health Series Finalist Ranked the Top 5 Best Cancer Podcasts by CancerCare News in 2024 & 2025, and #1 Rated Cancer Survivor Podcast by FeedSpot in 2024 to 2025.   Beating Cancer Daily is listened to in 140 countries across 7 continents and features over 400 original daily episodes hosted by Stage IV survivor Saranne Rothberg.   To learn more about Host Saranne Rothberg and The ComedyCures Foundation: https://www.comedycures.org/   To write to Saranne or a guest: https://www.comedycures.org/contact-8   To record a message to Saranne or a guest: https://www.speakpipe.com/BCD_Comments_Suggestions To sign up for the free Health Builder Series live on Zoom with Saranne and Jacqui, go to The ComedyCures Foundation's homepage: https://www.comedycures.org/ Please support the creation of more original episodes of Beating Cancer Daily and other free ComedyCures Foundation programs with a tax-deductible contribution: http://bit.ly/ComedyCuresDonate   THANK YOU!
