Kim Kardashian, a reality TV celebrity, had a full-body MRI scan performed that cost $2,500, or around Rs 2 lakh.
The Prenuvo device, which can identify 500 anomalies and diseases, has reportedly been “life-saving” and “really saved some of my friends lives,” according to the woman, according to aceshowbiz.com.
She posted a photo of herself next to the device on Instagram with the caption,”I recently did this @prenuvo scan and had to tell you all about this life saving machine. The Prenuvo full-body scan has the ability to detect cancer and diseases such as aneurysms in its earliest stages, before symptoms arise. It was like getting a MRI for an hour with no radiation. It has really saved some of my friends lives and I just wanted to share.”
Kris Jenner, Kim’s mother, got the scan for her birthday earlier this year because she wants to live life “to the fullest” like her mother Mary Jo “MJ” Shannon, who is 88 years old.
Speaking on the family’s Hulu show ‘The Kardashians’, she said: “My birthday’s coming up and every time I have a birthday, I start focusing on my health and I start thinking about what I need to do to take care of myself and be the best that I can possibly be. Getting this scan is very important because it tells me if there’s anything going on in the inside that I should be worried about on the inside.”
The scan takes just under an hour. Kris quipped, “Yeah, 55 minutes alone is a dream come true. I don’t think I’ve had 55 minutes alone since 1978.”
She added in her confessional, “I plan on lasting a really long time. I need a lot of energy because I have this really crazy life. Six kids, 12 grandchildren, lots of other people in my life that need my energy, my attention.”
“I wanna be able to do the things I want to do. I cannot tell you how proactive I am in my health care. My mother worked until she was 82. That’s such a great example for me of someone who lived her life to the fullest, and I really emulate that life that she’s had.”
