Show Notes:
Dr. Jenn Simmons, an integrative oncologist, author, and podcast host, is pioneering a new approach to breast cancer care—focused on prevention rather than treatment. As the author of the best-selling book The Smart Woman’s Guide to Breast Cancer and the host of the popular podcast Keeping Abreast with Dr. Jenn, she shares her expertise on how to prevent breast cancer and promote holistic health. Dr. Jenn is revolutionizing the way we approach cancer diagnosis, treatment, and screening with a focus on functional medicine and lifestyle changes that support long-term wellness.
Her journey into functional medicine began after facing her own health challenges and questioning conventional cancer treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. Dr. Jenn chose to explore a holistic, alternative path that emphasizes prevention over treatment. While surgery can remove a tumor, Dr. Jenn asks, “What caused it in the first place, and how do we stop it from recurring?” She advocates for addressing the root causes of chronic inflammation and adopting a lifestyle centered on nutrient-dense, whole foods, regular physical activity, stress management, quality sleep, and minimizing exposure to environmental toxins.
Key Tips for Preventing and Recovering from Breast Cancer:
- Prevention is Possible: Dr. Jenn emphasizes the importance of taking proactive steps to avoid cancer by maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
- Whole-Food Nutrition: A nutrient-dense diet plays a crucial role in reducing inflammation and preventing disease.
- Exercise and Sleep: Regular physical activity and prioritizing quality sleep are vital for overall health and cancer prevention.
- Stress Management: Reducing stress and practicing mindfulness can help support the body’s natural healing processes.
- Avoid Environmental Toxins: Minimizing exposure to toxins is essential for maintaining a healthy immune system and preventing illness.
In her conversation with Bioenergetics Beat Host Heather Gray, Dr. Jenn offers empowering lifestyle tips for improving health and recovery from breast cancer.

Dr. Jenn highlights the NIKKI wearable as a complementary tool for enhancing overall wellness.
