When she was only 21, Liana Werner-Gray was diagnosed with stage one lymphoma. Instead of letting this diagnosis ruin her life, she used it as fuel to become the healthiest version of herself. Nine years later she remains cancer free and more energetic than ever. Here’s how she does it. Liana is an advocate for alternative healing using a healthy diet & natural lifestyle. After healing herself of many negative health conditions including a stage 1 golf-ball size tumor and disorderly eating with junk food, Liana created “The Earth Diet” blog where she committed to eating only foods straight from nature for 365 days. The concept went viral and led to her traveling the world teaching about nutrition. Liana has written two worldwide best sellers “The Earth Diet” and “10-Mintue Recipes” appeared on television and radio. Through her book, she has helped people to lose excess weight and to improve and, in some cases, even entirely heal, conditions such as cancer, diabetes, addictions, depression, acne, heart disease, obesity, and more. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
