One thought on “Dr. Nasha Winters, ND — Treating the Whole Person, Not Just the Tumor”

  1. Dr Nasha tells a very compelling story regarding her own cancer case . However , if she went to an oncologist armed with studies such as those by Dr D'Agostino on ketosis and cancer , I believe many oncologists would at least consider the idea . Dr Nasha suggests that most oncologists would not. I respectfully disagree. 

    Dr Nasha did repeatedly say not to throw out the proverbial baby regarding conventional cancer treatments . I am glad she did so. 

    I still beleive in the interest of balance you could try to tallk with Brit Hermes.
