"One of the most powerful things that you can do if you’ve been diagnosed with breast cancer or want to prevent it is EXERCISE. The combination of strength training & aerobic is imperative if you have or are predisposed to breast cancer"
Dr. Gonzalez completed a two-year residency position at the competitive Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Here, he became proficient in Integrative Oncology through exposure to various disciplines and modalities. Dr. Gonzalez’s rare balance of focus and bedside manner during his residency caused him to grow very popular amongst his peers and patients. He leaves the center having treated over 700 patients and having a long lasting effect on them both physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
He earned his Bachelor of Science at Rutgers University, where he studied Environmental Business Economics. Although he had planned to pursue dentistry, he was drawn to Naturopathic Medicine and a holistic approach to patient care.
He completed his Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine at the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2014. His doctorate work included a thesis reviewing the current and complementary treatments for bladder cancer. As part of his training, Christian completed clinical rotations in pediatrics, general medicine, oncology, homeopathy, botanical and mind-body medicine, along with a preceptorship at the NYU Langone Integrative Urology Center.
He provides optimal patient care, by incorporating Naturopathic modalities, such as botanicals, homeopathy, nutrient and nutritional support as well as various other therapeutics. He integrates the latest understanding of Naturopathic therapeutics into all types of medical conditions. Dr. Gonzalez applies the belief that the body has an innate ability to heal itself when given favorable conditions to thrive.

My online course PCOS Success has been released today & for the next week - until end Monday 16th March - you can save £100 - making the course just £150 GBP / approx $195 USD. After that the price goes up to 250 GBP/ approx $320 USD ongoing. A payment plan will be available when you purchase at full price, after the first week.
This course is a compilation of many years of research, personal experimentation & experience working with over 100 ladies with PCOS. Having such a busy practice, I just don’t have enough hours of the day to help everyone, therefore I created this course as a way to support YOU, wherever you are at in the world.
If you want to know which lab tests you should run, how to regulate blood sugar & insulin levels, the best forms of exercise, which supplements to consider & so much more, this course is for you! There are also tons of free guides, recipe ideas & product recommendations
If you’d like a sneak peak ‘behind the scenes’ of the course, head over to my saved highlight 'PCOS SUCESS' on Instagram. My goal is to provide all the information I wish I had 7 years ago, when I was diagnosed with PCOS. I was told the birth control pill was the only thing that would help my symptoms, which isn’t true at all!
Here's some feedback from the beta tester group:
“I really love the amount of information from the lectures, resources and links. I think its also good that you referred to other people in the resources such as other articles or podcasts.
I love the recipes and that there isn't a strict diet plan because iv tried that a million times and it never works and sends me into restrictive/binge cycle. Also the real super foods video i felt you understood this and the food choices i thought i actually want to eat those things
Great information and you can move at your own pace which is wonderful.
Every lecture I have been through has been great and easy to understand
Loved the female menstrual cycle lecture along with the blood sugar balance, insulin resistance, the real super foods, topical skincare and info on carb cycling.
It's particularly useful having the insulin stuff explained to me - nobody teaches you these things! Also, the specifics of how to follow the generic tips e.g. yes, remove toxins, but what does that mean?
So if you’re getting nowhere with your current attempts or your doctors help, then take this opportunity to get some answers. Sign up using the link below & check out the 3 sample lectures I've shared for FREE 👏🏼
PCOS SUCCESS :
https://pcos-success.teachable.com/p/pcos-success
_______
In today's episode I share the 10 THINGS I wish I knew when I was diagnosed with PCOS. These are...
> The birth control pill ‘masks’ symptoms & actually makes the underlying imbalances of PCOS worse
> PCOS is a condition that responds amazingly well to 'natural medicine' & lifestyle changes
> There’s a HUGE connection between environmental toxins & PCOS
> Gut health is always a factor - even if you have ZERO digestive symptoms
> It is totally possible to have a baby without fertility treatment
> Having PCOS comes with some benefits
> Regulating circadian rhythm is KEY
> Thorough testing & investigation is always needed
> Your doctor isn’t the only person who can help you
