As an integrative physician and cancer survivor, it is comforting to know that this much-needed program is available to pick up where the office visit ends. The Anticancer Lifestyle Program is an invaluable and highly accessible resource, informed by science, that one can use at their own pace. The lifestyle changes recommended in the course can reduce the risk of cancer as well as other debilitating diseases, such as diabetes and heart disease.
I wholeheartedly recommend this program.

“The Anticancer Lifestyle Program is a critical offering of the Payson Center for Cancer Care and Concord Hospital. The course provides a balance of research and practical interventions for cancer survivors, arming them with the tools they need to move forward, and a road-map toward improved health and wellness. Cancer survivors report becoming more engaged in their health and empowered to take control of it.
The program contributes to the continuum of care we offer, bridging the gap for cancer survivors as they move from acute treatments to surveillance. It comprehensively addresses the question so frequently asked by cancer survivors: What can I do now?
The Anticancer Lifestyle Program is a clear illustration to our community of our unwavering commitment to cancer survivors, and demonstrates our commitment to treating the whole person–body, mind, and spirit.”

As a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, and someone who experienced my own brush with cancer, it’s empowering to know there are decisions we can make each day, to reduce our risk and support our health. Much of this information is very important and what I discuss with my own clients.“

The classes have given me back the trust in my body and my choices that I lost through cancer and treatments. This program, like any good rehab, has helped me move forward and I am thankful for the opportunity to participate.”

“Just reading the book on my own wasn’t enough; it took a whole village of dedicated professionals to craft David’s writings into a well-planned classroom experience.”

“I have changed aspects of diet, stress, exercise and toxin exposure, too numerous to mention here. I am now more open to and actively pursuing change in support of my hoped-for, improved health outcomes and in allowing my body’s natural defenses to function well.”

“
“I have continued to try to improve my diet. I eat very little red meat (hardly any, really) which is a big change. I read labels much more. I refer to the EWG.org site regularly before buying products (and have told friends about it). I’ve stepped up my exercise routine. I do exercise daily and continue to wear my pedometer and track my exercise and steps every day. I have also kept the Wheel of Life in mind. I have spent much more time meditating and developing the spiritual part of me. I feel things are much more balanced.”
