Elle Macpherson Addresses Cancer Controversy

Elle Macpherson, 60, has sparked significant controversy following her revelation of a seven-year battle with breast cancer, during which she opted for holistic treatments instead of chemotherapy. After undergoing a lumpectomy for HER2-positive intraductal carcinoma, she rejected the advice of 32 doctors to pursue conventional treatment, stating she felt a 'strong inner sense' against it. In a recent interview, she expressed confidence in her health, claiming she is in 'utter wellness' and does not anticipate a recurrence of cancer, despite medical warnings of increased risks. Macpherson's approach has been criticized by health professionals, who argue that her decisions could heighten the likelihood of her cancer returning. Nonetheless, she maintains that every individual must choose their healing journey, emphasizing her commitment to a more natural lifestyle. Her memoir, which details her experiences, has further fueled public interest and debate about alternative cancer treatments.
