"I would love for all the people in the world to go to the top, live those experiences, you certainly go up as a person and go down another different, another stronger, more confident and who values everything much more."
She Follows a Plant-Based Diet
Renaud enjoys a plant-based diet not just for her, but for the whole family. "Plants give your body what it needs to help fight off infection," says Andrea Murray, MD Anderson health education specialist. "A plant-based diet strengthens your immune system to protect you against germs and microorganisms."
She Lifts Weights
Renaud has posted videos of herself lifting weights, explaining how she gets mental as well as physical benefits from her workouts. "It's amazing to see how when you put effort into your mental and physical process, you start to see results.. so never stop pushing and walking towards where you want to be and who you dream of being," she says.
She's Obsessed With Ice Baths
Renaud is a big fan of bathing in icy water. "There's no doubt that some people get great relief from using ice baths," says sports medicine physician Dominic King, DO. "Patients can get physical, mental and functional benefits from this kind of cold therapy."
