When her parents overcame back-to-back battles with cancer and began navigating survivorship, Marzena Mignone found herself in the same position as millions of caregivers across the United States—overwhelmed, frustrated, and often confused by conflicting information flooding the internet.

Unlike most, however, she had an extraordinary resource: her husband, Dr. Joseph Mignone, MD, whose passion for healing and expertise in oncology and integrative medicine provided the invaluable guidance they needed.

Together, they realized how difficult it was to find reliable information and high-quality nutritional support specifically designed for cancer survivors. This inspired their mission: to provide survivors with trustworthy information, science-backed holistic supplements, and a community that helps people thrive—not just survive—after cancer.

Patients frequently asked for my advice on vitamins, minerals, botanicals, and, more recently, functional mushrooms. My wife and I spent countless evenings researching supplements, only to find that many were of poor quality, improperly dosed, or simply inappropriate for certain cancer survivors. Frustrated by the misinformation, we saw a clear need for a trusted source where survivors could find both reliable information and quality products. That’s how the idea SurvivorRx was born.

With support from family and friends—especially Tom Leonard, Karen May, and our daughter Izzy Mignone—we brought together a team of experts, including doctors, pharmacists, naturopaths, survivors, and caregivers, to build a company that is, above all, educational, empowering, and truly supportive to my patients and all those seeking a path of health and wellness post-cancer.

My goal for SurvivorRx is to be a partner to oncology providers in simplifying survivorship care for all. Every ingredient and dose is listed for full transparency, and every formulation decision is explained in our Ingredient Library and Survivor Safety page—so survivors, providers, and caregivers can make informed choices about supplementation and leading a healthier life after cancer treatment.

That’s why we created SurvivorRx—a community that survivors and caretakers can trust, and high-quality supplements our loved ones could take. We didn’t set out to invent something new; our goal was simply to do the homework for cancer survivors who are burned out on research. Our team searched for the best ingredients, ensuring they were survivor-focused, properly sourced, and held to the highest standards of safety and quality.

At the heart of everything we do is a belief that real success comes from bringing value into the world—and that the best foundation for any business is care and integrity. Our team, led by Amanda Detmer, made it a priority to hire vendors, contributors, models, and employees with a personal experience of cancer—and placed deep value on the insight they brought to our work.

In that same spirit, we launched our Tiny Loving Community (TLC) to spotlight smaller groups supporting survivors and caregivers, alongside our educational Survivorship Simplified Blog to empower survivors with the knowledge they need to live their best lives yet.
