Episode Overview

Health is much more than the absence of disease, it's about optimal function and Dr. Jenn Simmons is on today to share all about her experience. She started her professional career as Philadelphia’s first Fellowship trained breast surgeon. After 17 years as Philly’s top breast surgeon, her own illness leads her to discover functional medicine. Enamored with the concept of creating health rather than killing disease, she left traditional medicine and founded Real Health MD with the mission to help women anywhere along the breast cancer journey to truly heal.

Her story of healing a diagnosis through functional medicine is a powerful testimony of hope and empowerment to find the care to help us live our lives optimally.

Key Moments in the Conversation

[3:47] Functional medicine was the bell I couldn't unring and once you realize that there's another way, you can't ever go back.

[9:37] One of our biggest problems is that we have become so disconnected from our bodies, our health, nature, circadian rhythms, and the sun and the moon. We've lost our health in translation.

[13:15} What I was doing as a surgeon was just delaying the inevitable; cutting out the tumor is not the solution.

[27:46] It's the environment that has the greatest influence on a person's health.

[28:56] In functional medicine, we know that there's a spectrum of health and what we're looking for is optimal.
