The Proof with Simon Hill27 Okt 2025

The doctor who beat cancer and now helps others do the same | Dr Dawn Mussallem

Dr Dawn Mussallem’s life has defied all odds. After surviving stage 4 cancer, severe heart failure, and a heart transplant, she ran a marathon just one year later. In this conversation, I sit down with Dawn as she shares what she’s learned about resilience, faith, and the science of healing. We explore the mindset behind recovery, how food and lifestyle can prevent disease, and the lessons from decades of cancer research and clinical care. It’s a deeply human discussion on what it means to live with intention, vitality, and compassion. What We Cover Mindset, purpose, and finding meaning in adversity Plant-based diets for cancer prevention and metabolic health Fasting, sleep, and stress management Supplements, Omega-3s, and key nutrients to focus on Myths about seed oils, soy, and grains GLP-1 medications, muscle preservation, and weight management Why connection, joy, and movement are central to longevity A testament to the strength of the human spirit—and a guide to living better, not just longer.
