What is Cori Broadus’ health update?
Cori Broadus, the 24-year-old daughter of rapper Snoop Dogg and wife Shanté, is bravely sharing her journey with lupus and the positive impact of lifestyle changes on her overall health. In an exclusive interview with People, Broadus shares her remarkable progress, stating, "I've been good, better than I've ever been." She discloses her adoption of an "all-natural" and holistic approach to health, marking a transformative shift after a challenging period that included a suicide attempt in 2021.
She continued, “I stopped taking all of my medication like five months ago. I'm just doing everything natural, all types of herbs, sea moss, teas. I started working out, drinking lots of water. So now I think my body's like, okay, this is the new program and she's getting used to it.”

She said, “I've had medication since I was 6 years old, depending on these drugs all my life. So I wanted better for myself. I wanted to change because it just became a lot. I'm only 24 years old, taking 10 to 12 pills every single day. So I kind of just went cold Turkey.” Broadus also admitted to being focused on fitness not matter “how hard it is to get out of bed in the morning.” She talks about going to the gym regularly and working with a personal trainer alongside her fiancé Wayne. She explained, “My body is not achy. When you have lupus, that's one of the number one things. You have achy joints, you have arthritis. And now I'm like, damn, I'm not complaining about my knees, my feet, my hands, my back.”
Despite the progress she's made, Broadus acknowledges that there are still more lifestyle changes she could implement to further benefit her health.
She describes the journey adding, “It's continuously a learning process because there's so much more I could be doing.” She further admitted of still struggling with “eating terribly” and “not getting the proper rest.”
“If I can do a whole 360 change and just get healthy all around, I think I would be so good. But I tell people all the time, it’s a day-by-day process. Things are going to take time. Nothing is going to happen overnight,” she added.
Broadus has chosen to openly share her health and wellness journey on social media. By doing so, she aims to convey the message that, although she is currently “doing good”, the battle for her well-being persists on a daily basis, both physically and mentally. This transparency extends to her past struggles with body positivity and depression, including a previous suicide attempt.
Reflecting on her journey, Broadus highlights, “I have days where I'm sick, but I'm still blessed and able to do what I love to do and to tell my story. But then there's days I'm like, ‘Wow, I wish I wasn't sick. What would my life be if I was just a normal girl?’ It's part of being human. You're going to have bad days, you're not going to always have good days.”
