Our platform allows subjects to harness  patient data and lifestyle factors shown to help prevent cancer and reduce side effects from cancer treatment, including plant-based Nutrition, Exercise, Sleep, Mindfulness-based stress reduction and Intermittent Fasting with our mobile app. 1:30-2:30 pm  Integrative Survivorship Care | Dr. Donald AbramsIntegrative oncology can be defined as the rational, evidence-informed combination of conventional therapy with complementary interventions into an individualized therapeutic regimen that addresses the whole person (body, mind, spirit) with cancer. Cancer survivors generally benefit as well from similar recommendations regarding diet, physical activity, supplements, stress reduction and incorporation of Eastern medicine interventions that may be suggested to patients in the midst of their cancer treatment journey. This session will highlight some of the integrative interventions that may serve to keep survivors cancer-free as well as improving overall quality of  life.Learn more at www.karunaprecision.org and www.lifeomic.comMore about the Speakers:Jamie L.
