393. Dr. Dawn Mussallem: Integrative Oncologist, Stage 4 Cancer Survivor & Heart Transplant Recipient Talks Marathons, Her Work At Mayo Clinic, and IM8

Today, I’m joined by an extraordinary guest, Dr. Dawn Mussallem, D.O., DipABLM, a globally recognized Integrative Oncologist and Lifestyle Medicine Specialist at Mayo Clinic. Internationally respected for her work in cancer prevention and integrative oncology, Dr. Mussallem is a prolific speaker, author, and dedicated physician, bridging the gap between traditional medicine and cutting-edge wellness strategies. Her  dedication to advancing health and longevity aligns perfectly with IM8, where she serves as a Medical Advisory Board member, helping to shape its evidence-based approach to nutrition and supplementation

But beyond her medical expertise, Dr. Mussallem has an awe-inspiring personal journey. A stage 4 cancer survivor and heart transplant recipient, she defied the odds, not only returning to health but embracing endurance sports—running her first marathon just one year after her transplant. Today, she is an eight-time marathoner, proving firsthand the power of movement, mindset, and lifestyle medicine.

In today’s conversation, we’ll explore her groundbreaking work in medicine, her role with IM8, and how endurance sports and lifestyle choices can transform health outcomes.

This is an episode packed with insight, inspiration, and science-backed wellness strategies
