Countryfile star Julia Bradbury tells This Morning fans her breast cancer diagnosis made her re-examine various aspects of her life which she has maintained since diagnosis
Countryfile star Julia Bradbury has revealed her breast cancer diagnosis forced her to re-examine her life as she looked at her health “through a different lens”.
The 53 year old presenter, who is perhaps well known for her love of the outdoors, appeared on This Morning to talk about her new book Walk Yourself Happy: Find Your Path To Health And Healing In Nature. Julia was diagnosed with breast cancer two-and-a-half years ago and underwent a mastectomy in October 2021. And so, her traumatic experience prompted her to look into non expensive methods to maintain good health.
Sat on the This Morning sofa alongside Holly Willoughby and Josie Gibson, the mum of three said: “[The Book] is part memoir, part self help, part advice, part science, a bit of everything. I couldn’t ignore the elephant in the room. I couldn’t ignore the fact that I had a breast cancer diagnosis two-and-a-half years ago, we’ve spoken about that.”
She added: “But that really made me re-examine my life and made me look at health through a different lens. And everything in the book is about re-finding balance and finding health through things that are accessible to all of us. Look, we all know there are some crazy things that people are doing like paying millions keeping themselves alive with blood plasma oils. “
