About Polly
Howdi!
My name is Polly Noble and this is my website, Polly’s Path To Health and Happiness. I am a writer, juice junkie, food lover & holistic health coach. Initially this website started out as a way for me to share my journey of me healing myself of cancer naturally. But over the years of researching, studying and absorbing everything I can to empower me in my own journey, it felt kind of selfish to keep it all to myself!
So, Polly’s Path has become a hub of info on living holistically, natural beauty, meditation, inspiration, awesome raw food recipes and general wonderfulness for everyone to indulge in so you can make better choices and start living a life you love!
Believe it or not, apart from the day I was born and the day I faked hurting my back falling off the garden swing to get out of going to school, I had never set foot in a hospital for almost 24 years. Then the shitstorm blew into town and I was diagnosed with advanced cervical cancer which at the time of diagnosis had spread to the surrounding lymph nodes around my pelvis. That sucked. The following year consisted of constant hospital trips for surgery, simultaneous chemo & radiotherapy, brachytherapy and various health issues such as lymphoedema and kidney infections which topped it all off as the icing on the cake. Yes that was a pretty dark horrendous time!
Fast forward 4 years, and during my 2nd hospitalisation for pneumonia in as many years, I found a lump in my neck which transpired to be a recurrence of what was now deemed as “incurable” cancer. BUT, this time I decided to take matters into my own hands. Having suffered very badly with side-effects from the conventional treatment and based on the information I had gleaned over the years, I decided that this time around, I would embark on a journey to heal myself naturally.
Fundamentally I knew the body could heal itself. I had already proved that to myself when I cured my supposedly “incurable” lymphoedema in my leg caused by the treatment I’d had, so now I felt that it was time for me to ‘walk my talk’ and implement the changes I felt were needed to give my body the best chance of creating optimum health for healing.
So now, I dedicate my time to sharing my journey and the amazing stuff I continue to learn about health, healing and living well through writing books, ebooks, holding classes, workshops and retreats.
So I hope you’ll come join me in subscribing to my newsletter by getting your 10 F*ree Recipes and follow me on facebook and twitter so that you can start living a life you love!

Hi again Polly
Many thanks for all the info on juicers. I am close to making a decision between 2 now and your advice has made it much easier.
I was interested in you choice of books to recommend as I have been inspired by the American oncology surgeon Bernie Siegel, Elizabeth Kubler Ross and David Hamilton. However I am re-reading ‘Cancer is not a disease, it’s a survival mechanism’ by Andreas Moritz. It’s absolutely fascinating and (if you ever have time!) I thoroughly recommend it.
Sending you Love,Joy,Health and Peace

My mother showed me the recent newspaper cutting you did in the local Cambridge paper. Ma keeps us informed of extended family news-she is Aunty Heather’s sister-one of your Grandma’s sisters. What a battle you are having. Diet is a vital part of the picture. It was a privilege to read something of your story. You sound busy with the media at the moment, hope it’s going well . I remember driving round Hauxton on a Honda 175cc motorbike over 30 year’s ago looking for Aunty Heather’s place and asking a lady out in her garden if she knew where a Mr and Mrs John Dyer lived?, the lady studied me and replied ” come on in Mark, it’s me ” -it was Georgina! So as you can see, it was a few years since I had been round.

hello polly
this is just to say wishing you all the luck in the world, and that I REALLY ADMIRE your anti standard medication stand. I have a rough idea what you went through the first time, and I can’t help feeling that taking responsibility for your own well being by finding out and practising everything you can with regard to your own personal well being is the way forward. after all you know your own body better than anyone else and are more motivated to cure yourself than anyone else – all power to you.
love to your mum and dad too – they had the pic of me on the farmyard toilet on the kitchen wall for a while you may remember
love to you all
sandra
respect.
all the best for you

Hi Polly,
research) is driven by the financial aspirations of the drugs industry anyway.
Just leaving a comment to say how I admire and agree with your approach to your illness and to tell you that I think you’re absolutely right to avoid the much-vaunted ‘conventional’ treatments and follow the path you’ve chosen. Most of the emphasis on the conventional treatments (as with the conventional animal-based
The reason I’m so in agreement with your approach is because I tried it myself in the early ’80s when I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. I didn’t tell many people but, one very positive friend, who I told because I knew she had a good attitude, just said to me, “Well, what are you going to do about it?” with the emphasis on the ‘you’ bit. I realised that maybe I should be doing something about it myself instead of sitting back and leaving it all to the ‘experts’.
The book I obtained at the time was “A Gentle Way With Cancer” by Brenda Kidman (another ex-cancer sufferer). She recommended the cure she’d used on herself which is all the things you are doing – the raw diet, the no-dairy/meat/processed foods etc. Also the meditation and especially having a positive mental attitude and determination to beat the disease.
Worked a treat for me (to the doctor’s surprise – I didn’t tell her though as I didn’t think she’d believe what had cured me – regret that now). I’ve been healthy ever since and have tried to stick to as much of the healthier way of eating as I can (although things like chocolate have sneaked back in).
I’m a firm believer in what you’re doing and wish you every success,
Carol.
Dear Polly,
just read your story in ‘Fabulous magazine’. I suffered exactly the same conditon, so I can relate to your problem. Without elaborating to much,I had a three inch wide tumour removed from my neck ,but it had already spread to the lymph glands and other parts, which also had to be removed, and wasn’t given much of a chance,but I thought otherwise. I’m sure that positive state of mind coupled with some sort of healthy diet has a great bearing on survival. I still have a tumour underneath my collarbone, but it hasn’t increased in size for four years now,and doctors are loath to carry out another op. I just don’t consider that its there. Anyway,wishing you the very best.
Kind regards Billy.
hello Polly,
I have been searching for a few weeks to chat with someone going through somewhat of the same I am. I am undergoing chemo for stage 3 cervical cancer.. 5 treatments so far. after my 3rd treatment there was no sign of shringage (no growth either). This wedneday I go back for another CT to check again. I am scared s***. reading all about you gives me positive energy. I would liket oknow more about eating for the cure.
sincerely,
Lindy
Hi Lindy,
Sorry to hear about shitty situation. The first place to start would be my book “The Cancer Journey – Positive Steps To help yourself heal” as that will give you a good understanding. Then if you would like, we could have a coaching session. Im trying to take time out from 1:1 coaching at the moment but would be happy to do a one off/2 off sessions with you if you feel you need more guidance. http://thecancerjourneybook.com/
Good luck x
