The Metabolic Approach to Cancer

In the past two hundred years, we’ve made major changes to our planet, our air, water, and our and soil. These changes have created a lack of adaptability within ourselves, within our genetics, and in our lives, and a loss of flexibility to adapt to the pressures of modern living. This lack of adaptability and flexibility damages our metabolic system and the health of our mitochondria. Putting our bodies into a state of disease and the cancer process.

Human cells house mitochondria and when they go awry in response to numerous influences, including toxic diets and environments, they become sick and cancerous. To eliminate the cancerous cells we must optimize the mitochondria and the body’s healing mechanisms. We start by identifying what is causing the body to go into the cancering process, then treating the terrain, not just the tumor, with the right therapies for biological and mitochondrial needs. Our strategy works.

Chronic Metabolic Disease

88% of Americans are metabolically compromised

In a study published in November 28th, 2018 by University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, only 12 percent of American adults are metabolically healthy. That means that 88% of Americans are metabolically compromised.

Causes of Metabolic Syndrome

Processed Foods, Sugar, Gluten, Processed Vegetable Oils, Pollution, Skin Toxins, Smoking, Stress, Viruses, EMF, Lack of Sleep

Effects on the Entire Person and their Terrain

Genetics & Epigenetics, Blood sugar balance, Toxic Burden, Microbiome, Immune system, Inflammation and oxidative stress, Blood Circulation, Hormone balance, Stress levels and biorhythms, Mental & Emotional well being.

How it Works

Test

A complete biomedical workup, including fresh tissue biopsy, liquid blood biopsy, comprehensive laboratory testing, including metabolic, inflammatory, and toxic exposure risk factors as well as epigenetic blueprint and understanding of health since birth, diet, family history, lifestyle & environmental influences.

Assess

A methodical approach to translating each person’s unique set of the test data aggregated to guide our certified integrative oncology practitioner to the correct targeted therapies at the right time throughout treatment.

Address

Patients will have access to vetted and research-supported metabolic and immune support therapies along with re-envisioned standard of care in order to get YOU the best outcomes possible in integrative oncology. In addition to supporting you to a healthy lifestyle and nutrition planning to support your body’s ability to heal from cancer, we often use supplements to address imbalances in your terrain 10. You will also learn about and be recommended to consider using research supported adjunctive therapies at the appropriate time in your healing process.

Safe Supplements for Cancer

Most supplements are NOT safe and effective for cancers. However, lucky for us, Dr. Nasha Winters created the first supplement line specifically for those clients. It’s called the MitoVida line and you have access to the best cancer supplements here:

Product Mechanism of Action Key Pathways
SleepMaster Targets neurotransmitters and supports circadian rhythm alignment GABAergic, melatonin, and stress-HPA axis
NeuroMaster Provides neuroprotection and reduces oxidative stress GABAergic systems and B-vitamin dependent pathways
MethylMaster Supports methylation processes and homocysteine regulation Folate-B12-methylation pathway (B6-free for cancer protocols)
MetalMaster Chelates heavy metals without depleting essential minerals Iron/copper chelation and antioxidant defense systems
NutriMaster Enhances mucosal protection and boosts oxidative resilience Mucosal immunity, T-cell activation, gut microbiome
MagMaster Delivers bioavailable magnesium with D3 and potassium Electrolyte balance and neuromuscular signaling
SugarMaster Promotes insulin sensitivity and improves glucose uptake AMPK activation and GLUT4 expression
DefenseMaster Protects normal tissues while sensitizing cancer cells ROS pathways and mitochondrial-mediated apoptosis
HydroMaster Enhances hydration with ketone-based energy Electrolyte transport and ketone metabolism

I am beyond grateful for everyone at Flourish. I did the 6 month program and it completely changed my life! I’ve never felt better in my life! The atmosphere at Flourish is so healing and supportive. Right when you walk in and meet Kari for the first time you know that these people care about you and your health. I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 28 years old and cancer free from my double mastectomy at the end of 2023. I had been struggling with my mental health for 10+ years and I knew that something needed to change. I obviously was not taking care of my body right (getting cancer is a clear indicator) and Katrina and Carlos helped me to learn what I needed to do for my specific body to heal myself from the inside. I lost 30 pounds over my 6 month program and 25 of those pounds were in the first 3 months. I wasn’t perfect and I still am not perfect, but I have the tools to have a healthy life now. I feel so much better mentally, physically, emotionally, and hormonally. If you are struggling with any type of illness/disease/mental health etc. I promise you that they can help you. The knowledge they have given me will not only affect me but will also affect my children and hopefully prevent them from many of the struggles I’ve had in my life. 10/10 recommend you see Katrina and Carlos. You will not regret it!

I had the pleasure of being treated by the functional medicine Nurse Practitioner.. Since I was struggling for about 5 years with Gastrointestinal issues and pain, arthritic joint pain, constant fever blisters, rashes, nodules on my finger joints, and a slew of other issues, I decided to give this a try since my primary physician couldn’t help me. After she took a thorough medical history review, she completed lab work, and a comprehensive stool sample, she found that I had major fungal infection in my stomach, a gluten intolerance and allergy to a few other foods. I was able to avoid these offending foods, and started me on a “concoction” of medications. Its been 3 months and I literally have NO joint pain, my stomach pain that radiated down into my legs was gone within days, and the fever blisters and rashes went away immediately. I had been suffering for years and just thought this was what it was like to be in your 40’s. This has been a miracle.

I have worked with Katrina now for several months. She takes lots of time with you, very warm but professional, and has helped me immensely to optimize my health. I didn’t have a specific illness to deal with but wanted to be proactive in staying healthy due to a family health history, and she has worked closely with me regarding nutrition, medications, lifestyle, and supplements. My lab results show the difference, amazing!

About two months ago I began seeing Katrina DeRomana at Heartlite Clinic for a functional medicine appointment for chronic pain, fatigue, and autoimmune disorder with a multitude of debilitating symptoms. Katrina was fantastic, took an extensive history and intake and we began to look for the root cause of my illness. I had nutritional deficiencies and abnormal labs, along with gut dysbiosis with proliferation of unhealthy bacteria that was not allowing proper absorption of nutrients and a myriad of problems that go along with leaky gut. Katrina went over everything with me and we created a program tailored to my unique issues. Two months later and I’m feeling amazing- energy is back, joint pain is gone, and I am absolutely thrilled. I was skeptical but am a believer in the importance of functional medicine in treating and preventing illness. I’m very grateful for this amazing clinic and their continued support of my journey to health
