The Breast Cancer Metabolic Shield™ is a comprehensive, 1-year integrative survivorship program designed specifically for breast cancer survivors. It goes beyond standard post-treatment follow-up by actively optimizing your systemic biochemistry, managing treatment side effects, and leveraging advanced imaging and genomic profiling to minimize recurrence risk and maximize long-term vitality.

This program is ideal for breast cancer survivors—including those who have completed primary treatments (surgery, chemotherapy, radiation) or are currently on long-term endocrine therapy—who feel standard post-treatment care is lacking and want an expert, data-driven approach to active wellness and recurrence prevention.

Standard care often relies on periodic physical exams and basic mammograms, leaving patients in a "watch and wait" pattern. Our program actively intervenes by addressing the root metabolic drivers of recurrence—such as insulin resistance, IGF-1 levels, systemic inflammation, and visceral adiposity—while offering specialized, high-resolution imaging oversight and personalized lifestyle protocols.

We coordinate a rigorous, multi-layered surveillance strategy, including:

• Advanced Imaging: Diagnostic mammography, Ultrasound, high-resolution MRI surveillance and FDG PET/CT imaging as indicated.

• Metabolic & Genomic Profiles: Continuous tracking of metabolic biomarkers, inflammatory indicators, and circulating tumor/genomic markers for early detection.

• Treatment Side-Effect Tracking: Regular monitoring of cardiovascular health, bone density, and endocrine health.

We focus heavily on metabolic regulation to deprive potential micro-metastases of growth signals:

• Insulin & IGF-1 Optimization: Utilizing targeted nutrition, lifestyle strategies, and metabolic therapies (including GLP-1 regulation when indicated for weight loss).

• Endocrine & Hormone Support: Expert evaluation and support around hormone receptor status, joint pain from aromatase inhibitors, and metabolic side effects of endocrine therapy.

We build a personalized regimen that includes anti-inflammatory diet design, structured resistance and cardiovascular training to restore lean mass and bone density, stress reduction and mindfulness strategies, and targeted botanical/supplement protocols to reduce treatment-related fatigue and cognitive fog.

Yes. The Metabolic Shield™ is designed to co-manage your care. We act as your specialized integrative oncology advocate and navigator, collaborating with your primary oncology team to ensure seamless communication and complementary care.

The program begins with an in-depth, in-person comprehensive evaluation at our clinic. Follow-up consultations, metabolic monitoring, nutrition coaching, and progress checks can be conveniently conducted via our secure telemedicine platform.

The program operates on a direct-pay clinical management fee ($3,950/year). While the management fee is self-pay, ancillary costs—such as advanced diagnostic imaging, specialized lab work, bone density scans, and prescribed medications—are often billable to major health insurance providers or eligible for HSA/FSA reimbursement.

Getting started is simple. You can request an initial consultation through our website or client portal. Our team will review your treatment history, gather prior diagnostic records, and schedule your initial comprehensive evaluation to build your personalized survivorship plan.
