Vitamin D + K2 for Cancer Prevention, Inflammation & Immunity | Dr. Cindy Ross
Are you taking Vitamin D, but not seeing the results you expect?
It could be because you're missing the crucial co-factor: Vitamin K2.
In this video, Dr. Cindy Ross—cancer support specialist and founder of Life Wellness Forever—breaks down how Vitamin D and K2 work synergistically to reduce inflammation, regulate immune function, and may even help prevent the growth and spread of cancer.
📈 Over 80% of cancer patients are deficient in Vitamin D—and many are never tested.
It’s time to stop guessing and start healing.
🎯 What You’ll Learn in This Video:
-Why Vitamin D alone isn’t enough
-How K2 directs calcium into bones (and away from arteries)
-The link between Vitamin D deficiency and cancer
-How this duo reduces chronic inflammation
-What labs to ask for and how to interpret them

What if I told you that one of the most powerful cancer-fighting, detox-activating, inflammation-lowering compounds on Earth is hiding in your fridge—or better yet, sprouting on your kitchen counter?
Meet sulforaphane: a natural compound found in cruciferous vegetables that’s changing the game in functional medicine and cancer prevention.
🔬 What Is Sulforaphane?
Sulforaphane is a sulfur-rich phytochemical found in cruciferous veggies like broccoli, kale, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussels sprouts—and most abundantly in broccoli sprouts. It’s created when the enzyme myrosinase interacts with glucoraphanin, usually through chewing, chopping, or light steaming.
This isn’t just nutritional trivia. That simple transformation triggers a cascade of benefits that can literally change your cells.
🧠 Why Should You Care?
Because sulforaphane helps:
🔥 Reduce chronic inflammation
♻️ Activate phase II liver detoxification enzymes
🛡 Protect against DNA damage
🚫 Inhibit cancer stem cell growth
💪 Support glutathione production (your body’s master antioxidant)
⚖️ Regulate estrogen metabolism for hormone balance
If you’re navigating cancer, autoimmune conditions, or simply want to stay ahead of disease, sulforaphane belongs in your toolkit.
🥦 Why Broccoli Sprouts Are the Real MVP
Mature broccoli is great, but broccoli sprouts are a sulforaphane powerhouse—containing up to 100 times more sulforaphane precursors than fully grown broccoli.
This is why I personally grow them in my kitchen and recommend them to my cancer patients and wellness clients alike.
You can easily grow your own using organic broccoli sprouting seeds, a mason jar, and a little water and light. Within 3–5 days, you’ll have a superfood that supports your body at a cellular level.
🔥 Pro Tips for Maximum Sulforaphane
To truly unlock sulforaphane:
Chew thoroughly—this activates the myrosinase enzyme.
Lightly steam your cruciferous veggies—boiling destroys enzymes.
Pair with mustard seed powder if you're eating cooked veggies—it reintroduces myrosinase!
Use supplements that include both glucoraphanin and active myrosinase for optimal potency.
🧪 Who Benefits Most from Sulforaphane?
I especially recommend sulforaphane-rich foods or supplements for people with:
Breast, prostate, colon, or lung cancer
Hormone imbalances
High toxic load or mold exposure
Chronic inflammation or oxidative stress
Genetic detoxification challenges (think MTHFR)
But the truth is—we all benefit from daily support that helps our bodies neutralize modern-day toxins.
💚 Let’s Get You Started
Healing doesn’t have to be hard. Sometimes it starts with one little sprout.
If you’re interested in adding sulforaphane to your daily life, I’d love to show you how. Whether it’s through food, supplementation, or growing your own, I’ll help you find the easiest and most effective way for your body and lifestyle.
When it comes to gut health, many people assume they’re doing “okay”—until symptoms get loud. But what if I told you that fatigue, acne, anxiety, and hormone imbalances all stem from deeper issues in your gut that standard tests never catch?
Enter the GI-MAP—one of the most comprehensive, clinically relevant tools in functional medicine today. Short for GI Microbial Assay Plus, this DNA-based stool test is designed to uncover the true state of your gastrointestinal ecosystem.
Unlike conventional stool cultures that only grow a few microbes, the GI-MAP uses quantitative PCR to detect DNA from hundreds of microorganisms—beneficial bacteria, opportunistic overgrowths, parasites, viruses, fungi, and more. It also measures inflammation, immune activity, and digestion markers that tell a complete story of your inner terrain.
Why does this matter?
Because an imbalanced gut isn’t just about digestive discomfort—it’s a major root cause of inflammation, immune dysregulation, and cancer risk. The gut houses up to 80% of your immune system, and when the microbial balance is off, you’re left more vulnerable to everything from infections to autoimmune disease to tumor development.
Key markers on the GI-MAP include:
Calprotectin – an inflammatory marker linked to IBD and colon cancer
Secretory IgA – your gut’s immune defense system
Beta-glucuronidase – an enzyme that, when elevated, can re-activate estrogen and other hormones in the colon (red flag for hormone-related cancers)
Zonulin & Anti-Gliadin IgA – indicators of leaky gut and gluten sensitivity
H. pylori, parasites, and viruses – often silently driving inflammation
As a cancer support specialist, I use the GI-MAP not only for patients dealing with chronic symptoms, but also those wanting to optimize their terrain for prevention. We use the data to tailor targeted protocols that support detox, microbiome balance, and repair of the gut lining—because without gut integrity, healing stalls.
The best part? It’s an at-home test. No invasive procedures. Just answers.
If you’re tired of guessing and ready to understand what your body’s trying to tell you, the GI-MAP is your first step toward lasting wellness.
