Dr. Khamba's Journey
A personal story of resilience, recovery, and the creation of Nourish Resilience®
Dr. Baljit Khamba
ND, MPH, EdD
As a breast cancer survivor of triple-negative, BRCA1-positive gene, I underwent chemotherapy, both a double mastectomy and bilateral oophorectomy in my early 40s. This experience was not only physically and emotionally transformative but also professionally catalytic. Throughout my recovery, I was determined to support my body using a blend of evidence-based naturopathic medicine and the traditional healing wisdom of my South Asian roots.
I began crafting daily blends incorporating many of the ingredients now found in Nourish Resilience® — including reishi, fermented ginger, black cumin seed, dandelion root, ashwagandha, and chai-inspired spices like cinnamon and cardamom. These nutrients and herbs supported me in managing post-surgical fatigue, hormonal fluctuations, detoxification, and the emotional and metabolic aftermath of cancer treatment.
Nourish Resilience® emerged from this lived experience — not just as a product, but as a deeply intentional formulation designed to support recovery, resilience, and vitality in others. It reflects the science of nutritional therapeutics, the wisdom of ancestral medicine, and the realities of life after cancer. I'm proud to offer it as part of a broader commitment to helping women feel strong, whole, and nourished — from the cellular level outward.
