Elle MacPherson Had Breast Cancer, Rejected Chemotherapy

Renowned model Elle Macpherson shared in an interview that she has been managing breast cancer without chemotherapy for seven years, opting for a holistic approach instead. “Saying no to standard medical solutions was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life,” she writes in her new book. “People thought I was crazy. But I knew I had to make a choice that truly resonated with me.” She has been supported by a team of holistic health professionals and claims to be in good health today. “In traditional terms, they’d say I’m in clinical remission, but I would say I’m in utter wellness. And I am!” Macpherson said. Her health choices align with her history of embracing controversial medical practices, including associating with anti-vaccine figures like Andrew Wakefield. (People)
