Julia Bradbury: Last News

Countryfile star Julia Bradbury was devastated to learn last autumn that she was battling breast cancer.Since then, she has been re-evaluating her lifestyle - and that involves ditching a food addiction that has plagued her life.Brandishing an irresistible piece of chocolate cake for a photo, which she emblazoned with a nuclear warning sign, Julia confessed that the habit she'd been struggling to kick was her love of sugar."I've always had a sweet tooth," she admitted to over 203,000 Instagram followers of her worst habit."[I] felt lucky that I could eat the doughnuts, dunk the biscuits every day & snaffle the brownies, without putting on weight."However, in just a few short months, breast cancer changed Julia's life completely, and perhaps irreversibly.The 51-year-old recently had a mastectomy to give herself the best chance of survival, and she is now re-assessing and tackling all of the bad habits that have crept up in previous years too."Since my breast cancer diagnosis I've been re-evaluating my diet & lifestyle & I realise that I'd let my sugar addiction creep up on me."A treat is a treat, but loading up on refined sugar every day, just isn't healthy - whatever your weight."And it's not easy to avoid - sugar is hidden in foods under so many names."Julia, who has clearly been reading up on dietary requirements, then reeled off a mammoth list of suspect ingredients that the aspiring healthy eater should recognise and try to avoid."Anhydrous dextrose, brown sugar, cane crystals, cane sugar, corn sweetener, corn syrup, corn syrup solids, crystal dextrose, evaporated cane juice, fructose sweetener, fruit juice concentrates, high-fructose corn syrup, honey, liquid fructose, malt syrup, maple syrup, molasses, pancake

My lump was always painful and sensitive.”Sharing this on her own stories, she wrote: “Not so.“I had a painful lump.

Instagram again today after taking a brief break from the social media platform to concentrate on her family life.The Countryfile star, who was diagnosed with breast cancer at the end of 2021, shared the announcement alongside a video of the common areas women miss when they are looking for signs of breast cancer.Earlier today, Julia uploaded a picture of herself enjoying the sunshine as she looked into the horizon.Alongside the picture, the presenter shared a reflection on meditation and its benefits.She penned: “Meditation has been practiced for thousands of years.“Originally a more spiritual practice to help deepen the understanding of the sacred and mystical forces of life, meditation is now commonly used for relaxation and stress reduction.“Meditation can give you a sense of calm, peace and balance that can help emotionally and impact your overall health & well-being.“These benefits continue throughout the day... A bit like the longer- term benefits of spending time in green spaces.”The TV star concluded: “Our overall health is so much more than just physical/how we look.“The brain, gut, mental and physical health are all linked - what we eat, how we move, what we think, our environment...all play a significant role in our health.“Happy Monday everyone.

Countryfile roots and enjoying the fresh air - even though she confessed to finding it difficult.The 51-year-old recently had harrowing mastectomy surgery to prevent her potentially deadly cancer from spreading - and she has been finding life a struggle ever since.However, her children and being outdoors enjoying nature are two things she has credited as vital healers during her recovery."I've been inside all day today and had a meeting with a really lovely person," she explained in a video during an outdoor walk."I've been trying just to stick to really lovely people at the moment!"She added, offering words of encouragement to anyone else who may have been feeling the same: "I really didn't feel like coming out, but I pushed myself."I've made it to my local park [and] even if I just get to a few minutes [of exercise], I know I can feel better."So if you're watching this and you're thinking: 'Nah, not gonna take the dog out', or, 'it's too dark', or, 'I won't go to the gym', this is me giving you that little nudge [and saying] 'Go on, go on, go on!'" she urged."It'll make you feel so much better and it's good for you."It's good for your lungs, good for your body, good for your heart, good for your soul."She signed off with the words: "Lots of love" as she went off-air to continue her countryside stroll.Julia is courageously attempting to get back to life as it once was, even returning to her position on This Morning earlier this month.She had taken to the airwaves from the middle of a forest, where she was filming in a bid to promote tree planting with the Woodland Trust.Life has been a whirlwind of tears and trauma for Julia since her shock diagnosis with cancer just a few months ago.She had relayed to her followers

“It's changed the way I look at life but I've also reexamined my health.“It's easy to lose sight of what health is in this busy convenient 21st century.“Mind, body, soul-they're all connected & they all need attention.”Julia shared her breast cancer diagnosis in a poignant piece back in September.Since then she has documented her isolation before her surgery as well as having the procedure.Speaking recently on This Morning, Julia said that her healing was “going well”.She returned to the show on February 1 to present a segment on This Morning’s forest.When asked how she was, she said: "Well, firstly, thank you to the whole team of ITV This Morning for checking in with me."I want to say thanks - you've been checking in regularly, it is lovely to be back.“You've asked me, 'Am I ready?’ and today I am ready."I had a mastectomy a couple of months ago, I have been doing lots of physio, I have been doing lots of treatment.“My healing is going very well thank you."

The star added that the product offers an “array of benefits” including an improvement of metabolism and fatigue.She wrote: "They promise an array of benefits inc: improvements to your metabolism, immune system, insomnia, fatigue, migraines etc etc!”Some fans weren’t particularly impressed by the patches, claiming that it was a “scam.” @Michaelwatterson penned: “I watched a video debunking these.“They put them on a clean sterilised surface and was same results as putting on your foot.”Lucyswhitehall wrote: “Interesting....“Although I think our bodies are already well equipped to manage and expel toxins, so I'm not convinced of their value or evidence base.”@Whyayemrs said: “Detoxification is done by the liver, not the soles of the feet.“All of these foot pads are a scam. Companies love preying on our fears and insecurities.Save your money.”@Hannahdarling370 said: “Don't waste your money.The liver and kidneys detox the body.”Julia later responded to these accusations from her Twitter account, explaining she was not endorsing them.She said: "I was sleepy when I posted about these & didn't use words like allegedly/supposedly in the actual film."I hope i was clear that I'm not sure about these & it was just a bit of dirty tea bag fun. (sic)“I'm not saying they 'do' anything.

She continued to explain to her 201,000 followers the purpose of using the foot patches.But by the look of things, the body detox didn't work as well as she had hoped.In her video, Julia can be seen removing the patch from her foot.As she slowly removed the product, a vast dark stain was on full display, which is believed to be the "toxins" from her body.In her caption, the mother-of-three continued: "They apparently have a cleansing function, drawing out toxins overnight."They promise an array of benefits including: improvements to your metabolism, immune system, insomnia, fatigue, migraines, back pains, swellings etc etc etc. Whadya think? (sic)"Any reflexologists/traditional medicine experts out there with an opinion?"SEE COMMENTS BELOW there are no scientific studies to back up these claims so we all have to rely on anecdotal evidence.

Twitter today to share the “disgusting” way she was trying to draw out toxins from her body.The Countryfile star shared a video of herself taking off a patch that she had left on the sole of her foot overnight for a “body detox”.In the clip, she can be seen pulling on the sticky material as she shows what looks like a brown residue left inside.Alongside the video, she explained: “How much fun did you have in bed last night?“I tried out these Body Detox foot patches to 'draw out toxins overnight'“How disgusting does this look?“They promise an array of benefits inc:improvements to your metabolism, immune system, insomnia, fatigue, migraines etc etc!”The unconventional method sparked a series of mixed reactions, with curious fans announcing they would try it, while others appeared more sceptical.Julia also used the social media platform to thank a fan for his support during her breast cancer battle.Twitter user Garycrisp1943 penned: “I know I don't know you, and I don't normally pour my heart out to strangers, but I've always admired your enthusiasm for the outdoors & nature.“I just want to send you & family well wishes in the hope you will find all the strength you need.” (sic)The TV star responded: “Thank you so much Gary,” alongside a tree branch and a green love heart emoji.Julia last week said her "healing is going very well" during an appearance on This Morning.Speaking to hosts Rochelle Humes and Alison Hammond from the This Morning Forest, Julia said it was "lovely to be back" in front of the camera.She also revealed she was recovering and undergoing physiotherapy following her double mastectomy.Julia said: “First of all, thanks to the whole This Morning team."You’ve been checking in regularly to check how I’m
