Dawn Kali, diagnosed with Stage 1 breast cancer in 2007, opted for alternative medicine instead of conventional treatments after her surgery. Disillusioned by the impersonal nature of the medical system and wary of chemical and radiation treatments, she sought healing methods that aligned with her all-natural lifestyle. Her decision aligns with the health freedom movement, which includes individuals who distrust traditional medicine and advocate for personal health choices, reflecting a growing trend among Americans to explore alternative treatment options.
In her quest for options outside traditional medicine, Ms. Kali found herself part of what has become known as the health freedom movement. This movement has stitched together a diverse group of individuals who believe that the government has no business meddling in personal health decisions.
While only a small percentage of people diagnosed with cancer reject standard medical care entirely, surveys have found that one in five Americans has used alternative medicine in place of conventional medicine at some point.
