I Needed to Endure two Years of Chemo

I had chemo every three weeks for two years. It was brutal. I tried everything, and eventually created my own supplements – just to survive. Three weeks after my last round of chemo, I hiked 240 miles on the Pacific Crest trail. A few years after that, I finished a 100 mile mountain bike race – the Lifetime Leadville Train 100. Here’s my story.

I tried everything to help my body recover – and a few things actually worked!

This journey led me down the road of understanding how to heal myself with food and exercise. I wrote down a list of my ideas, and methodically tested them one by one. None of the ideas really helped, until I stumbled on these three: fasting, gingerol (ginger extract) and sulforaphane (broccoli extract).

I had an “Eureka” Moment

Here’s what I realized:

  • Vegetables are very strong anti inflammatory compounds.
  • Not all vegetables are created equally. For instance, ginger is a much more powerful natural anti inflammatory then potatoes.
  • Vegetables release weak free radicals when threatened by mold or bacteria. These radicals can kill microbes but are far too mild to damage our cells.
  • Our body senses these signals via a special sensor called KEAP1. Imagine KEAP1 as an alarm that reacts to any perceived oxidative stress, even if it’s harmless.
  • Once triggered, NRF2 takes over. It ramps up antioxidant defenses, detox pathways, and cellular repair, acting like a master switch for enhancing our resilience.
  • Because the free radicals from vegetables aren’t truly harmful, our cells get stronger instead of just repairing damage. It’s like reaping the rewards of a repair job without the cost.
  • Ginger, for example, sets off this KEAP1/NRF2 pathway. Rather than harming us, it simply flips the NRF2 switch, boosting our defenses, lowering inflammation, and improving energy use through AMPK.
  • Ultimately, we gain better health, stronger defenses, and potentially a longer lifespan from this harmless ‘false alarm.’ The vegetables protect themselves, and we enjoy a free upgrade to our body’s repair and defense systems. It’s a win-win for both plants and people.

The Science

The causes of Aging aren’t Rocket Science
Both chemotherapy and aging cause the buildup of DNA damage—both breaks in the DNA itself and altered methylation patterns that disrupt gene expression. Chemotherapy damages DNA by creating breaks or harmful changes in cells to stop cancer growth. Over time, this damage builds up, making cells work poorly or stop dividing. This causes inflammation, weakens tissues, and speeds up aging.

Neither are our Science Based Supplements
The natural, anti inflammatory compounds in chocolate (epicatechin), ginger (gingerol), broccoli (sulforaphane) and tea (green tea polyphenols) boost NRF2 activity to enhance antioxidant defenses and DNA repair while also activating AMPK, which drives autophagy and clears out damaged cells. This dual action preserves healthy cells, improve metabolism, and repair DNA damage commonly associated with both chemo and aging.

We Kept Things Simple

The science is pretty clear that broccoli, ginger, chocolate, turmeric, and green tea are healthy. The science is also suggesting that a large part of the health benefit is from the polyphenols in these foods. So, we took the polyphenol from each of these foods, and made a supplement.

Our Supplement has these Ingredients

  • Gingerol (Ginger)
  • Curcumin (Turmeric)
  • Sulforaphane (Broccoli seed extract, cruciferous vegetables)
  • Epicatechin (Cocoa beans, dark chocolate)
  • Quercetin (Onions, apples, berries, grapes, capers, kale)
  • EGCG (Green Tea Polyphenols)
  • Berberine Extract (Barberry, tree turmeric)
  • Gynostemma Pentaphyllum Extract (Jiaogulan) plant)
  • Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera root)

My Ultra-potent chemo recovery powder worked for me
I’m confident it will also help you recover and feel more healthy. I designed my formula to activate the signaling pathways that protect your cells, repair DNA, and sustain energy. Here’s how it works.

  • Enhanced Cellular Defense: Sulforaphane and curcumin activate NRF2 pathways, boosting antioxidant production, including glutathione, to neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative damage.
  • Energy Amplification: Gingerol and EGCG promote AMPK activation, improving energy metabolism, fat utilization, and mitochondrial efficiency for sustained vitality.

Our Provisionally Patented Skin Creams

Most skin creams provide temporary benefits. We are the first people to get really excited about applying DNA repair science to skin and muscle creams – which should have a more durable benefit. Our innovation in skin creams introduces a high-potency polyphenol Anti Inflammatory skin cream containing 20% gingerol and 1-10% electrophilic compounds designed to activate NRF2 and AMPK pathways while inhibiting NF-κB. The formulation uses a specialized nanofiltration system to concentrate active ingredients from ginger juice, ensuring maximum efficacy.

Testimonials

I'm a young at heart 79 year old man. But, I'm still 79 years old. I used your magic cream today. I ran my Giants Head Grind training run and felt pretty good at the top so I just kept running hills for 1.5 hours. When I got back to Veterans Park I still felt good so I thought I would run the first big hill again to see if there was anything left in my legs. I ran 10 hill repeats and finally left because I had run out of time. ?!?!?!!!! Kind of scary how good it worked.

I had the best workout of my life. I pushed and pushed and didn’t get tired. I thought it was a fluke, but the 2nd day, it happened again. I didn’t really want to exercise, but I did it anyway. I went as hard as I could for an hour. Normally, I would have gotten tired. Not this time. I turned around, and completely openned the throttle. After another 15 min, I had to head home because I was later for dinner. Normally, I would be tired after a workout like this. With the cream, I had energy to still go about my day. I’m not doing another hard workout ever again without this cream.

I’m Chris’s aunt, and I was worried because I was tired. I have to admit that I was skeptical, but I put on Chris’s cream and we went biking together. I was on a recumbent, and Chris was running. After 25 minutes, I turned to Chris and said “This is incredible, you’re really on to something.” Chris asked if maybe it was a placebo, but I said “I don’t think so, I didn’t really expect it to work, and I’m an old lady. There’s no way a placebo would work like this. I wanted Chris to make me some cream the next day, but he promised to send me some when he was back home.

I’m 310 pounds, 75 years old, and I don’t like exercising. It hurts my legs, and I’m tired afterwards. I don’t have much energy at the best of times, and I’m exhausted for the rest of the day after I exercise. I tried the cream, and I actually enjoyed riding my recumbent bike for 45 minutes. More importantly, I had energy for the rest of the day. Now, I spend 45 min most mornings riding my recumbent bike with my wife. I needed to do something to get back in shape but I just couldn’t. This cream seems to have given me the boost I needed so that I can start taking control of my health again (and biking with my wife 3-4 days a week has made my life a little more enjoyable).
