Elissa Goodman: Cleansing and Nutrition Specialist
In a recent episode of Superhuman Entrepreneur, host Dr. Matt Accurso sat down with Elissa Goodman, a holistic nutritionist and cleanse expert who believes in healing from the inside out. Goodman shared her inspiring journey from being labeled the "sick kid" to becoming a beacon of hope and transformation for millions.
From Illness to Empowerment
Elissa's story is one of resilience and empowerment. Growing up, she faced a myriad of health issues, from chickenpox to shingles, which left her feeling like she was always "behind the eight ball." She candidly discussed her emotional struggles, revealing that "most of my life, I just accepted myself as being sick all the time." Her turning point came with a cancer diagnosis at 32, which led her to question the conventional medical path. Instead, she chose a holistic approach, focusing on emotional healing, nutrition, and alternative therapies such as yoga and acupuncture.

The Power of Mindset
One of the standout moments in the podcast was the discussion on the power of mindset in health. Dr. Accurso referenced Dr. Joe Dispenza's work, highlighting how stress and negative thoughts can literally change our body chemistry. Goodman echoed this, emphasizing that "thoughts create disease, and thoughts can create health as well." Her journey illustrates the profound impact of emotional well-being on physical health, a concept supported by Kelly Turner's research in "Radical Remission," which found that emotional factors played a significant role in healing.
Nutrition as Medicine
Goodman is a firm believer in the mantra "food is medicine." She advocates for a diet rich in cruciferous vegetables and leafy greens, which are crucial for detoxifying the body. She also challenges the fear of fruit due to its sugar content, asserting that "fruit is the fountain of youth" due to its high antioxidant levels. Her daily regimen includes juicing, which she describes as "a liquid IV of vitamins and minerals," providing nutrients at a cellular level.
Tackling Toxins and Stress
The conversation also delved into the pervasive issue of toxins in our environment. Goodman pointed out that heavy metals and pesticides are significant contributors to cellular toxicity and inflammation. She emphasized the importance of lowering viral, bacterial, and fungal loads in the body to reduce inflammation and prevent disease. Goodman also shared her strategies for managing stress, including meditation, yoga, and adaptogenic herbs like ashwagandha and holy basil.
Conclusion: A Message of Hope
Elissa Goodman’s journey is a testament to the power of holistic healing and the resilience of the human spirit. Her story reminds us that "you can heal from anything," and that thriving is within reach for everyone. As she puts it, "I'm 58 and I've never felt better in my entire life." Her message is one of hope and empowerment, encouraging us all to take charge of our health and well-being.
