HealthPartners created myGenetics, a community health research program in partnership with Helix, because DNA can tell people about their health and may hold the key to understanding certain health risk factors.Deenya Craig, a HealthPartners patient with a family history of cancer, started having irregular mammograms in her mid-30s and knew DNA testing existed. Through myGenetics, she found out she carries the BRCA2 gene mutation that brings a greater risk of breast and ovarian cancers. She's now a health advocate and encouraged her family to get checked.Hosts: Kari Haley, MD, and Steven Jackson, MDGuest: Deenya CraigHealthPartners website: Off the Charts podcast

This week in honor of Li-Fraumeni Syndrome Awareness Month, we have selected this episode from February 2022 to re-share. It features Whitney O'Connor who discovered her link to Li-Fraumeni Syndrome when diagnosed with breast cancer. Li-Fraumeni Syndrome is just one of the many genetic mutations that can lead to a breast cancer diagnosis. Whitney was diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder called the Li-Fraumeni Syndrome. She has been diagnosed with breast cancer twice – the first time at 30 and then again at 32. While her diagnosis of Li-Fraumeni Syndrome provided the hint to a cancer mystery, it also gave Whitney a built-in support system because the gene ran in her family. In this episode, Whitney reads from her piece “The Cancer Gene” from Wildfire Magazine's 2021 “Family” issue. Her essay is included in the Wildfire book “Igniting the Fire Within.”More about Whitney: https://www.instagram.com/boobiequeenchronicles/More about Li-Fraumeni Syndrome: https://www.lfsassociation.org/what-is-lfs/More about The Boobie Queen Company: https://www.boobiecrowns.com and https://www.facebook.com/boobiequeenchroniclesPurchase a digital copy of the “Family” issue of Wildfire Magazine: https://www.wildfirecommunity.org/shop/digital-download-family2020Buy the Wildfire book “Igniting the Fire Within: Stories of Healing, Hope & Humor, Inside Today's Young Breast Cancer Community”: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BJVJ629F?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860More about Wildfire: https://www.wildfirecommunity.org.Get the free Wildfire email newsletter: https://www.wildfirecommunity.orgLearn about Wildfire writing workshops: https://www.wildfirecommunity.org/workshopsShop Wildfire merch & more: https://www.wildfirecommunity.org/shop*Free* The Burn Writing Companion: Guided Prompt Journal (Vol. 1): https://www.wildfirecommunity.org/the-burn

People with eating disorders are being repeatedly failed by the system and radical changes need to be made to prevent further tragedies. That's according to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman UK, Rob Behrens. He says little progress has been made in the six years since the publication of a report which highlighted serious failings in eating disorder services. Rob joins Nuala to talk about what those failings are, and what needs to be done. In her memoir Outside the Sky is Blue, writer and journalist Christina Patterson tells her story of what it's like to grow up with a sibling who is mentally ill. Her older sister, Caroline, had her first breakdown when she was fourteen and Christina was nine. Later, Caroline was diagnosed with schizophrenia and was heavily medicated for the rest of her life. Christina joins Nuala to discuss growing up in a family in the shadow of mental illness. Actor, singer, songwriter, and all round South London superstar Cynthia Erivo joins Nuala to speak about her role in the upcoming film, Luther: The Fallen Sun, where she appears opposite Idris Elba. She'll also talk about making the movie version of the musical Wicked, where she is playing the lead role of Elphaba, and being one step away from an EGOT (an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar and a Tony) award winner. Would you want to know if you were going to get cancer? Journalist Hilary Osborne was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. She regrets not finding out sooner whether she carries the BRCA2 gene. Whereas comedian Michelle Brasier has been told by doctors she has a 97% chance of developing cancer, and is living life to the full. So, how do you face the stark reality of living with a hereditary and life-shortening illness? Hilary and Michelle join to Nuala to talk about their experiences.

Imagine you are given the gift of life.  You may have already have it but are caught up in the business of life. You may not realise it or you may have genes hidden in your history lurking to come out at any moment that change your wellness. Self-care is not selfish but self-preservation.Dr. Simran Malhotra is a triple board-certified physician in internal medicine, hospice & palliative care, and lifestyle medicine as well as a certified health and wellness coach. On episode #110 of the Thriving minds podcast we discuss how she survived BRCA 1 previvor with a strong family history of breast & female reproductive cancers and underwent a risk reducing bilateral mastectomy & total hysterectomy in 2020 at the age of 32.  This is podcast episode is dedicated to my beautiful friend Fiona Van Der Poorten, who was not as lucky to get the gift of DNA sequencing at 26 years old to reduce her breast cancer risk and passed this year leaving behind 5 sons. In the last few hours, she posted on Facebook that the last 24 hours were the best of her life. Fiona wants you to have the best 24 hours of your life today. After learning about her own genetic risk of cancer and her professional experiences in palliative care, she founded Coach Simran MD, a platform where she works with and educates women at high risk for cancer with or without genetic mutations on the powerful impact that positive lifestyle changes can have on their quality of life and even longevity.   She describes wellness as a mindset. That food is medicine, sleep is medicine and exercise is medicine. Through her real-life experiences as a patient, family member and palliative care physician. She became passionate about empowering and guiding women, particularly those at risk for serious illness on the powerful impact that positive lifestyle changes can have on the quality of life and longevity. Making decisions and following them with committed action.  We discuss the things that matter the most for people at the end of her life. It is not what you think. Awakening wellness and trying to get lifestyle medicine into palliative care.   Website:  Wellness By Lifestyle MD | By Coach Simran MDBlog: The Highfive Blog | Wellness by Lifestyle MD (coachsimranmd.com) Instagram: Lifestyle & Wellness Coach (@drsimran.malhotra) • Instagram photos and videos Facebook: Coach Simran MD | Facebook Linkedin: Simran Malhotra MD | LinkedInSupport the show

26 year old Zoe recently received the news that she has ATM - also known as ‘the cancer gene'. Zoe has made the difficult decision to have a double mastectomy, which is the medical term for the surgical removal of both breasts. We talk about how a litany of cancer diagnoses in Zoe's family has shaped her understanding and perception of the illness… Zoe explains her decision, the process of post-surgery reconstruction and the implications that may come her way… And we discuss how to check your body for changes, and the need to see a doctor immediately, if you notice any. It may be embarrassing, but it could save your life. And as always, there's plenty more. www.dontfretaboutdebt.net/blethered/ Contact: seanmcdonald.podcast@gmail.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/seanmcdonald01 Zoe's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/atmprevivor_of_cancer/ Charity support links https://www.macmillan.org.uk/ https://brcachat.com/ https://breastcancernow.org/ https://www.maggies.org/ https://coppafeel.org/

Is a mastectomy the right option for all women with changes in the #BRCA genes? No – yet women who carry a BRCA variant of “uncertain” significance are unnecessarily having preventive mastectomies. Their variant could be benign, but they don't want to take the chance it's not. Professor Amanda Spurdle explains how a remarkable world-first data-sharing trial is helping remove the uncertainty for patients by working out which variants are harmful and which are harmless.

In 2013, Hollywood star Angelina Jolie made news when she announced she had undergone a preventative mastectomy after being diagnosed with the 'BRCA' gene mutation. The name BRCA is an abbreviation for BReast CAncer gene, a hereditary gene that affects your body's ability to suppress tumour growth and increases the likelihood of cancers such as breast, prostate and ovarian. Those who are likely to have it can be tested for it and there are preventative measures that can be taken such as mastectomies and an ‘oophorectomy’-a surgical procedure to remove ovaries. Rachel McKeon is someone who has made the monumental decision to undergo such a procedure. After being diagnosed with the BRCA1 gene, Rachel decided to take her health into her own hands and underwent a number of procedures to reduce the risk of her contracting cancer in the future. Speaking to Dermot and Dave, Rachel shared her story, and how the support of the Marie Keating foundation was so important throughout the process. You can hear the chat in full by clicking play below: [audio mp3="https://media.radiocms.net/uploads/2021/04/15115721/Rachel_1504.mp3"][/audio] The Marie Keating Foundation's fourth annual BRCA conference is taking place online on the 23rd of April 2021. The online webinar will provide information and advice to men, women and families affected by a BRCA gene mutation and will feature experts in fertility, psycho-oncology and BRCA services in Ireland.

A particular version of the ginger gene MC1R underpins the fiery hair and freckled complexion of redheads, famed and feared in many cultures. But it is also linked to increased pain sensitivity and skin cancer risk. So where did it come from? And are redheads really endangered? As far back as the 19th Century, doctors realised that some types of cancer seemed to run in families, but it was not until the last decades of the 20th Century that scientists started to pin down the genetic culprits. Faults in two of these genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, significantly increase the chances of developing breast, ovarian or prostate cancer.

Sometimes scientists try to study one thing and end up accidentally discovering something else. Cancer researcher Cathy Wilson from the University of Cambridge recently experienced such good fortune. While trying to understand the function of cancer gene 'myc' in mice, a gene that goes haywire in almost all human cancers, she accidentally ended up achieving the holy grail of heart disease research - making heart cells start dividing to make more cells.

In this week's episode, Renee reminds us to cherish the life we create for ourselves.

I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer at the age of 36. I was a young mom going through chemo treatment and raising two kids. Chemo side effects were rough on me and without my family’s support I don't think I would have survived. My sister and I started www.thewarriorbox.com for cancer fighting moms who don't have the support that I did while I was doing chemo. A care package filled with useful items to help soothe chemo symptoms. Because of my cancer experience, I wanted to share my story and empower as many cancer moms as possible. www.momsbattlingcancer.com is a podcast created by my sister Christina and I, for moms raising children and battling cancer. A space where we connect with specialists, cancer coaches, cancer fighting moms / survivors, and cover topics that affect and touch our community.

Traditional vs an holistic approach to breast cancer. Christine Horner, M.D. is a leading expert in breast cancer. As a surgeon and reconstructive plastic surgeon, Dr Honer has a unique approach between balancing holistic and traditional medicine with breast cancer. We'll talk about genes and the BRAC 1 breast cancer gene. You can lower your risk of developing breast cancer if you have the BRAC 1 gene just by what you eat. Every cell in your body has an entire dna map, in your whole genome certain genes are turned off and turned on. Eating an unhealthy diet and processed sugary foods you can actually turn on the bad genes.Sugar for instance causes inflammation in the body and knocks out your immune system for about 5 hours after you consume it. Dr Horner talks about how your diet is so important to your health and risk of developing cancer.
