Nine years after being crowned the “Fittest Woman in the World,” Mary Rust—who was no longer as active—was diagnosed with breast cancer. Embracing her former passion for exercise with a new focus on caring for her body (not pushing it to its limits), and along with other alternative therapies, she was able to reverse her diagnosis and reclaim her wellness without the need for surgery or chemotherapy.

Glenn Sabin

Diagnosed with “incurable” Leukemia at 28, Glenn Sabin used a number of natural therapies to postpone chemotherapy and stay healthy. His favorite turned out to be exercise, which became a form of meditation that calmed his mind and regulated his emotions. Now 30 years later, he has achieved a full and durable remission without ever needing any conventional medical treatment.
