Functional Oncology Nutrition Consultant
Andrea Schaffer specializes in oncology nutrition, driven by personal experience and a passion for helping others. Her journey began after her mother’s cancer diagnosis in her early 40s, which inspired Andrea to explore strategies for cancer prevention and support.
In February 2023, Andrea underwent a preventative full-body MRI that revealed a 2.3 x 2.4 cm mass in her brain’s right temporal lobe. Asymptomatic and unaware of the tumor, she immediately applied her expertise in therapeutic ketogenic nutrition to prepare for surgery and optimize her health. In April 2023, she underwent successful surgery to remove the malignant grade 3 oligodendroglioma and has since focused on preventing recurrence through diet, lab monitoring, and lifestyle changes.
As both a practitioner and a thriver, Andrea understands the challenges of making significant dietary changes to improve health. She leverages her education and experience in holistic oncology nutrition to guide clients in preventing and managing cancer while working toward long-term wellness.
