Kerri-Anne Kennerley slams Elle Macpherson and 60 Minutes after the model made 'holistic' cancer treatment claims in controversial interview: 'Someone is going to die'


Elle Macpherson has been slammed by Kerri-Anne Kennerley over her claims she treated her cancer with natural remedies.

Addressing her breast cancer battle in a candid interview with 60 Minutes Australia on Sunday, Elle told Tracy Grimshaw she was in 'shock' when she got the diagnosis, but chose not to have the mastectomy and chemotherapy that her doctors suggested. Dr Liz O'Riordan, former Consultant Oncoplastic Surgeon at Ipswich Hospital NHS Trust, discussed the dangers of alternative cancer therapies on ITV's Lorraine, saying Elle likely didn't understand the 'ripple effect' of her remarks. Some examples include shark cartilage supplements, laetrile (a plant substance) and Gerson therapy, which involves following an organic vegetarian diet and undergoing up to five coffee enemas a day.
