Hi, I'm Theresa Cook and this is my daughter Katie. I twice survived acute lymphocytic leukemia, eventually having a bone marrow transplant in 1997. Several years after I was diagnosed with Leukemia I found "Whole Food" nutrition as an answer to prayer. Changing my diet, from my "pre-cancer" days has dramatically changed both of our lives and health.

The diet commonly provided in hospitals does not focus on fortifying the body nutritionally, nor detoxifying the damaging chemicals once they have been used. In looking back, I was very traumatized by the caustic affects of the chemotherapy physically and chemically. Unable to eat from the painful and damaging effects of chemotherapy, I almost died from malnutrition.

Over the next 15-20 months, I had one infection after another and even developed asthma, as my immune system remained weak. My body was thrown into full blown menopause overnight. I did not realize what had happened. For years the losses from the cancer stayed with me. I finally decided that I had better take my health into my own hands. “Tuum est” (It is up to you!)

So I decided to get my Ph.D. in Nutrition and assist others in their nutritional program full time. I am continually bombarded with information about new supplements and different brands of vitamins etc. I used to find it confusing, but rarely so now. It seems so clear to me that three facts should guide us. And that if we just stay on track with these three realities, we do get healthier, day-by-day and year-by-year. And we have healthier children too.

Fact #1:
Without any doubt, our bodies absorb all nutrients best from their original whole food unadulterated source. Vitamin pills are at best just a minor skeleton of the whole food.

Fact #2:
There is absolutely no exaggeration in the recommended 5-9 servings of raw fruits and vegetables. Health over our lifetime demands that. Organic and raw is best, for reasons we will discuss further.

Fact #3:
There really is a diet plan that is so universally basic, so foundational, and so full of the required cell level nutrition, that all of us can use it to maintain and enhance our health. The quantities can and do change for individual needs, but not the pieces. Yes, we are all bio-chemically unique, but we are far more the same than different. For many sound, not-changing-anytime-soon reasons, every cell in our body needs these substrates to insure our health at the cell level. We also need to recognize that when we are sick, stressed, or very heavy, we need more vitamins, minerals, essential fats, and antioxidants, so don’t skimp, because that won’t heal you, just slow down the decline.


The Daily Plan:

  1. 5-9 servings of raw (for the enzymes and unadulterated vitamins and minerals) fruits and vegetables every day in their most fresh and ripe form. Add additional fruit and vegetable concentrates to insure the daily intake.
  2. 30-70 grams of predominantly organic vegetable proteins preferably including organic soybean protein. Vegetable proteins have some disease preventive qualities that today’s hormone-laden and grain-fed meat proteins might not have.
  3. Consume at least 1-2 tbsp of primarily flax seed oil with some additional fish oil as needed to give the body the amount of Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids (EFA’s) required Daily.
  4. Avoid eating hydrogenated, fried [foods], and Trans fats as much as possible.
  5. Eat 25-35 grams of soluble and insoluble fiber.
  6. Reduce the amount of simple carbohydrates consumed. These are vastly different than the complex carbohydrates we get from whole food produce above.
  7. Drink enough filtered, de-chlorinated water.
  8. Use natural progesterone if needed to counteract the environmental estrogens which infiltrate our endocrine system, causing problems that diet alone can’t completely manage.


This is complete nutrition for many, and the right foundation for all. This NUTRITION MADE SIMPLE program is more effective and much less confusing than trying to balance all the needed vitamins, minerals, enzymes, fiber supplements that one would be inclined to take if one does not get the “WHOLE FOOD IS BEST” concept. Even the American Medical Association agrees that the food in stores and pantries is not enough. So eat well and supplement daily with the few, but powerful whole food products I have sprinkled in the program.
