ABOUT
Tom Coghill was born in Britain and immigrated to Canada at 12 years old. He presently resides in the Sagada, Philippines which is a small farming community in the mountains that has become a tourist attraction due to the amazing hiking and caves. He volunteered for one year as the director at St. Theodore’s Hospital directing juice fasting treatments for terminal cancer patients. Working with terminal patients was discovered to be exhausting, frustrating but also profoundly exhilarating and touching.
His sister Margaret, and his father died of cancer which motivated Tom to press through in seeking a natural treatment of cancer base on the pass successes he had witnessed with juice fasting.
For many years Tom Coghill used a pen name, Tom McGregor at his parents request. Constantly in the media due to his lecturing on addiction and health, stating I was a reformed drug addict was thought make his parents look like failures. After his father’s death, he changed back to his family name Tom Coghill to honor his father after he passed on from liver cancer.
Now, Tom focuses on research, organic gardening and encouraging people to fast on the web. He has a small detox retreat that caters to a small number of clients.
