Bio of speaker 

Dr Cabot graduated with honours in Medicine and Surgery from the University of Adelaide South Australia in 1975. As part of her extracurricular medical training, she studied herbal medicine, acupuncture, homoeopathy and nutritional medicine. This was considered somewhat unusual for a medical student during this era, as such treatments were still considered questionable. This did not deter Dr Cabot’s inquisitive spirit, as at a young age she could see beyond the limitations of drug orientated medicine.

After graduating with honours in Medicine and Surgery from the University of Adelaide, Dr Cabot began her medical career in 1980 as a GP Obstetrician-Gynaecologist and practised in Sydney Australia. During the mid 1980s she spent 6 months working as a volunteer doctor at the Leyman hospital, which was the largest missionary hospital in Northern India. Here she studied tropical and infectious diseases and tended to the poor indigenous women with obstetric emergencies.

Dr Cabot returned to Australia in the late 1980’s to resume her practice and also decided to become an author. Her first book titled “Women’s Health” was an authoritative holistic health guide. Subsequently she wrote several more ground breaking books. Her book “The Liver Cleansing Diet” has sold well over 1.5 million copies worldwide and has been translated into several languages including Arabic. The Liver Cleansing Diet Book was awarded the prestigious Australian People’s Choice Award for the most popular non fiction book in 1997.

Dr Cabot is a pilot and flies herself to seminars throughout Australia, often visiting remote areas to help people learn more about her health message. She has conducted health seminars all over the world and is frequently asked to lecture for numerous health organisations such as The American Liver Foundation and the Annual Hepatitis Symposium. Dr Cabot still has an active medical practice and does research into liver diseases.
