Foods That Fight Cancer: Preventing Cancer Through Diet

This is an excellent book that goes into the hows and whys of the various anti-cancer foods. The book is filled with great info you won't easily find elsewhere, such as that not all Green Tea is the same when it comes to EGCG content (Japanese Green Tea has more than Chinese Green Tea). Why not swing the odds of living a long healthy life in your favor as much as possible? Eat the foods talked about in this book and you'll increase your odds of dodging the cancer bullet.

It is difficult to eat well when fighting cancer. This book makes it easy to understand simple changes to make and foods to include. When dealing with low energy, it helps to keep food inspiring, and to make it simple. The book is beautiful, and makes it easy to want to make healthier choices. I also love the companion book "cooking with foods to fight cancer."

I read quite widely but this easy-to-read book has a large amount of information I had not come accross before. Its focus is to give you information that helps you to understand cancer so you can take steps to place yourself at lower risk for cancer. We all know about not smoking but there is lots more you can do. It is especially credible since its written by eminent cancer researchers who head up cancer research labs.

A very easy to read but fascinating explanation of the biochemistry of cancer cells and how naturally occurring chemicals in certain foods can alter the chemical environment in the body to inhibit the various stages of cancer cell growth. Amazingly the action of these natural chemicals is doing what powerful man-made chemotherapy is doing, but without the collateral damage. By including some of the basic ingredients in your diet, you can signficantly help decrease the risk of cancerous cell growth in the body. The book provides some very thought provoking statistics on what are the real causes of cancer as opposed to many of the popular myths that people worry about so unnecessarily. It also makes these essential foods sound delicious and fun. No recipes but that's up to you!!! An essential read from the modern foodie!!
