TV iceman Wim Hof has provided the inspiration for a man suffering from terminal liver cancer. Marcos Jarvis, 47, started having ice baths, went vegan and took up tai chi to give himself the best possible chance of survival.
And it worked as Marcos is now back in good health and due to tackle a mega run in South Africa, reports The Mirror. The builder was diagnosed with terminal stage four cancer in 2019 after suffering pain while running a marathon.
He needed chemotherapy after doctors found 12 tumours on his liver. But he refused to give in to the disease and, after being inspired by extreme athlete Wim, made drastic changes to his lifestyle.
