Beating Cancer With Nutrition
Description
Sugar feeds cancer: diet and supplements can starve tumours; and nutrition makes chemo and radiation more toxic to the tumour while protecting the patient.
Nutrition changes underlying causes of cancer, improving outcomes for cancer patients regardless of other therapies.
This book was developed after working with over 500 cancer patients and organising three international symposiums on the subject. The information contained in the book is both scientifically backed with references and clinically proven in the hospital with patients.
Cancer has escalated from a once obscure disease to a leading cause of death worldwide. Chemo, radiation, and surgery can reduce tumor burden but do nothing to change the underlying causes of cancer. Enter the need for this book. Using evidence-based guidelines, this book gives you a simple diet and supplement program to augment your doctor's best care while undergoing cancer treatment. This book shows the reader how nutrition can augment immune functions, make chemo and radiation more of a selective toxin against the cancer but not the patient, reverse or prevent the common malnutrition, starve the sugar feeding cancer, and use nutrients as biological response modifiers to induce suicide (apoptosis) in cancer cells. A one-week recipe section is provided with color photographs. The book is in larger font for readers with compromised vision. Each chapter ends with a patient profile which provides inspiration and insight. This book provides the cancer patient with a very doable roadmap to improve quality and quantity of life and chances for a complete remission while working with your doctor.
