When the Hard Things Are Gifts

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

If there’s one thing we’ve learned since Reid’s diagnosis last year, it’s that cancer doesn’t come with a handbook. Read my last update here.

There’s no step-by-step guide, no guaranteed roadmap—only a winding path of unknowns, questions, and moments that leave you standing still, trying to catch your breath. You learn quickly that grace must become your companion: grace for yourself, grace for the ones you love, and grace for the long, heavy days that seem to stretch on forever.

But even in the midst of all the unknowns, God gives us glimpses of His kindness—little mercies tucked into the chaos.

One of those mercies?

If we had rushed back into chemo immediately after Reid’s hospital stay, we would have missed something critical: the three tumors that had quietly appeared in his liver. By God’s grace, the radiologists saw them clearly in the PET scan and MRI. It was a hard discovery, but also one that led us to praise—because even the hard things, when seen in His timing, are laced with purpose.

Tomorrow, Reid has a tele-consultation with Interventional Radiology. We are praying for wisdom that only heaven can give—for steady hands, clear eyes, and for the ability to “burn off” all three tumors. One tumor is so small that we wonder if it will even be visible by ultrasound, and if it’s too small to treat right now.

But we are choosing trust over fear. Trusting that God sees what we cannot. Trusting that He is weaving together a story bigger and more beautiful than anything we could script for ourselves.

Today in church, they read Exodus 11:9:
“The Lord had said to Moses, ‘Pharaoh will refuse to listen to you—so that my wonders may be multiplied in Egypt.’”

That verse felt like it was written just for me.
As we walk through what feels like a dark valley, I can’t help but see the parallel—the children of Israel trapped under Pharaoh’s harsh rule, waiting, praying, wondering if freedom would ever come. They lived under the weight of a hardened heart and impossible circumstances. And yet… God wasn’t absent. He was working, even in what seemed like silence.

Why did He allow it?
“So that My wonders may be multiplied.”

That line stopped me in my tracks.
It reminds me, once again, that His plans are bigger, deeper, and infinitely better than mine. He allows the hard, not because He is distant, but because He is preparing to display His glory in ways we could never orchestrate ourselves.

What feels like unanswered prayers or closed doors may actually be setting the stage for wonders far greater than I could imagine.
His wonders multiplied.
His story, not mine.
His plan, not my own.

And today, in the middle of the waiting and the wondering, that gives me hope.

We would love your prayers as we walk into tomorrow.

Defying the Odds: Navigating the Uncertainty of Reid’s Cancer Journey

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

It’s like trying to shake off jellyfish, like letting go of an old friend who hurt you—like cancer, something you beg not to return.

Since Reid’s 18-day hospital stay, we’ve been through countless doctor’s appointments, blood tests, and scans. The biggest mystery? When they performed surgery in December, the cancer was gone—something the doctors still can’t explain. Naturally, we started digging. How could the pathology show no cancer? Was this even possible?

Then came the Guardant Reveal test, which detected 0.075% cancer in his blood—a tiny amount. But despite that, the oncologist still wants him back on chemo and radiation. It’s a tough call, especially since Reid only made it through three rounds of chemo before his rupture and septic shock. Reid more about his 18 day hospital stay here.

We’re navigating uncharted territory here, trying to make sense of it all. See his daily protocol here sharing all the details of his vitamin and supplement intake.

We are incredibly grateful for the outpouring of love from this community, the prayers from around the world, and the kindness of so many people. Your support means the world to us. We will keep you updated what is next for Reid’s journey.

Reid’s Anti-Cancer Protocol: A Daily Breakdown of His Healing Routine

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

I recently posted a reel on Reid’s anti-cancer protocol—a culmination of everything we’ve implemented since his colorectal cancer diagnosis in October 2024. You can read more about his initial diagnosis and his intense 18-day hospital stay.

To make it easier, I’m sharing the details of his daily protocol, broken down by meals from morning to dinner. I’ve learned so much through research, and I hope this is helpful! Let me know in the comments if you have any questions.

Breakfast

  • Scrambled eggs (3)
  • Fresh vegetable juice: carrots, red or golden beets, apples, turmeric, and ginger. We use THIS JUICER for a delicious cold press juice.

Our favorite veggie juice recipe:

  • 2 beets
  • 1 lb carrots
  • 2 apples
  • 1 nub each of ginger and turmeric

Lunch

  • Leftover meat spaghetti (made with Good Ranchers meat and organic pasta)

Snack

  • Seed oil-free granola (I use “Purely Elizabeth”)
  • Plain whole milk Greek yogurt (not non-fat!)
  • Frozen wild organic blueberries
  • Local honey

Dinner

  • Chicken enchiladas (made with Good Ranchers meat)
  • Served with white rice (easier to digest than brown rice)

Dessert

  • Organic dates
  • Decaf coffee drizzeled over homemade vanilla ice cream or we like the “Tillamook” brand

Many of you have asked about Reid’s vitamins and supplements. I know this can be a controversial topic, so I want to emphasize that this is NOT MEDICAL ADVICE. I’m simply sharing what Reid takes daily to support his health, and you’re free to follow whatever protocol works best for you.

Let me know in the comments if this was helpful!

First things first—I filter all of our drinking water using an AquaTru under-the-sink filter. Since this filter has a 4 stage reverse osmosis, and removes 84 dangerous contaminants, it’s essential to add minerals back in. I use a mineral supplement to replenish our water from Sprouts—this is the one I use.

I also have two Air Doctor filters in our home. It super important to filter out the indoor air which is oftentimes more toxic than outdoor air. Use my link for a discount.

We also use a LUMEBOX daily to reduce inflammation. Use my link to get up to $300 off!

What he takes

I try my best to not order vitamins from Amazon as items are unregulated and you sometimes don’t know what you’re getting. However sometimes the convenience can’t be beat and you’ll notice that our our apricot seeds are from there.

Ok let’s dive in . . . .

Ivermectin (we order from a trusted pharmacist. He or she can adjust your dose to your weight. Reid’s has fluctuated),

Fembendazole 1 tablet is 222 mg, There’s a lot of phony brands out there, this one is trusted

Blackseed oil

Organic Apricot seeds, a great source of vitamin B, only eat 2-3

Vitamin D and K, we get ours from LIFEFORCE

Magnesium, via global healing aka “oxy powder” or magnesium glycinate

Mushrooms, seen here

Serenelle (Gaba and lemon balm for improved mood)

Broc elite, (note shipping was delayed for me just a heads up)

Berberine

Cayenne cool (we get the cool so it doesn’t have a burning aftertaste)

Oil of oregano

L-Glutathione 500 mg

Cinnabin (is cinnamon and activated charcoal) from Rogershood use code SHALICE for 10% off (also known as a binder)

Shijalit I love this one and this one for Reid and I

As always, let me know if you have any questions in the comments. I look forward to continuing this conversation. Much love to you ALL!

Why you should sign up for Lifeforce Diagnostic

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

Have you heard of Lifeforce? It’s a game changer.

I met with my functional life force doctor yesterday. We reviewed the results of my recent lab tests, comparing them side by side with those taken three months ago. Many of the metrics showed improvement, while some remained unchanged and others did not. This experience has been incredibly enlightening in terms of understanding my body better.

I’ve been delving deeply into the realm of hormones, exploring how to support them and the consequences of neglecting their needs. In short, the repercussions can be dire! To address my low hormone levels, particularly progesterone and testosterone, I’ve incorporated low-dose supplementation into my daily routine. Low levels of these hormones can significantly impact energy levels, libido, and overall vitality. Notably, symptoms such as headaches and fatigue often signal insufficient progesterone. Have you ever checked your hormone levels?

Personally, I’ve found that regular consultations with a functional doctor and diligent monitoring of my lab results every three months have been immensely beneficial. This approach has not only educated me about health matters but has also addressed issues like headaches and sleep disturbances. Did you know that they analyze over 40 essential biomarkers? Perhaps this could also be beneficial for you. Don’t hesitate to take action for your health. You can sign up for LIFEFORCE here.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you sign up?

First thing I did to join Lifeforce? Signed up online, easy peasy. Then, scheduled my diagnostic bloodwork and filled out a detailed health questionnaire. Best part? A phlebotomist comes to you – perfect for busy moms like me!

Where do I see my results?

Lifeforce hooks you up with a personalized dashboard showing all your biomarkers and health stats. I’ve learned a ton about my body and how to keep it in top shape. Next step? Meet your Lifeforce Clinician for a virtual chat.

Ok, what next?

Your clinician crafts a personalized plan just for you – supplements, meds, lifestyle tips, you name it. Plus, you get a health coach to keep you on track every day. Love my Zoom sessions with them!

Before/After My collagen journey

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

I’ve been taking collagen since last September. I was asked to tackle some of the commonly asked questions about collagen.

Many ask, Shalice, how did you hear about Modere?

Rewind to last year when we were stuck at home on a beautiful sunny day in Pasadena.  I kept getting texts from Angela. She was super sweet and wanted to send me collagen bundles. I honestly didn’t want it, and was SUPER skeptical.
I started taking it because I knew she would ask me, and I couldn’t believe my hair started growing. Baby hairs at 6 weeks. After that, it was history, I wanted everyone’s hair to start growing and enjoy the joint relief that I experienced. I started telling my family and friends about how much I loved it.  What’s your story? I’d love to hear it. In the meantime, let’s discuss from FAQ.

What are the differences between the collagens?

What does TRIM do?

To get best results from the Lean Body System consists of these 3 supplements: activate, burn and trim. Here is a break down of them and how to take them

ACTIVATE: mix one packet into 8 oz of water, stir briskly and drink quick. If it thickens, add more water and stir. Use for first 3 consecutive nights.

TRIM: Take 1 tablespoon with your first meal each day. Can be eaten straight off the spoon or mixed in your smoothie or yogurt. Refrigerate after opening!

BURN: take one capsule up to 3 times daily with a cup of water, and snack or meal. Start with 1 on day 1 and work your way up to a max of 3 per day.

PICK 3 for best results:

  1. AVOID SUGARY DRINK
  2. AVOID REFINED FLOUR, WHITE RICE & SUGAR
  3. CUT FRIED FOODS
  4. DRINK 5 12 oz GLASSES OF WATER
  5. WALK 7500 STEPS DAILY

newin lululemon and celery juice

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

25″ Align Leggings // Scuba 1/2 Zip Hoodie // Bag // Sports Bra

If you’ve followed me for a while, you’d know I loooove my celery juice. I get asked a lot why I drink it every morning and what are the benefits. It has an array of health benefits from gut to bones and full of vitamins K, silicone and calcium. It been even known to strengthen bones. I’m at the point where I crave it every morning if you can believe that!

Today I’m wearing a new hoodie from lululemon, leggings and wrap. The latter is a perfect California warming layer. The latter sold out at press time, but I’m hoping for a restock! In the meantime, you can shop the following:

25″ Align Leggings // Scuba 1/2 Zip Hoodie // Bag

RECIPE:

1 bunch of organic celery (wash and cut off the end)

2 cups water (give or take here, sometimes I add more)

Add both the celery stalks and water into a Vitamix and blend. drain in a strainer, add ice and drink immediately.

Tip: drink immediately or store in a mason jar in the refrigerator. It tastes better consumed right away. To save time in the morning, chop and wash the celery stalks the night before. For my readers who want to go one step further, drink chlorophyll water! Who wants to join in and try it? be sure to let me know you did!

Thank you lululemon for sponsoring this post!

 You already know if you follow me on my blog and stories, that I’m a huge fan of liquid collagen. I have had knee discomfort relief within 2 weeks of using it and awesome healthy full hair within 6 weeks.  Although results may vary and it is important to take your vitamins for optimum absorption, I’m seen very positive results in 3 months.

It dawned on my one day as I was applying expensive serum, that we are so concerned with applying collagen, HA, and vitamins to our faces that we forget we need to ingest hyaluronic acid and liquid collagen. Within 2 weeks of taking the liquid collagen, my knee discomfort had subsided. That’s saying a lot for a 37 year old mother of 5 children!
 
As promised, I told you all I’d let you know when the collagen sale would go live. Well guess what, they’re having a sale! The sale is good from November 16, to November 28, while supplies last!
