In this era of pre-packaged and highly processed foods, here is a great resource for people concerned with what they are putting in their bodies and how those chemicals may affect them.  If you are fighting cancer, this book is a must read to gain a better understanding of how you can take control in your treatment of the disease and how eating the proper foods (and avoiding the wrong ones) can help in the recovery process.

I ordered a case of these books and gave them to people that I love. This book isn't just for people who have cancer! It's full of PROACTIVE information not only about what to do if you have cancer but also how we can make healthy changes and choices to prevent from getting sick in the first place. With the statistic of 1 in 3 Americans in the US getting cancer, every single one of us will know someone who hears the dreaded diagnosis. To have exposure to the information in this book is extremely empowering especially when you need to make a decision quickly about  a health crisis. Thank you, Ty!!!!

This book is a great guide to gentle, alternative medicine to heal cancer and other diseases.  It is a how-to manual to help you boost your, or a loved ones, immune system so that it can fight off abnormal cells.  The author gives many links to websites with more information about alternative medicine and treatments.  The author is not a medical doctor so he will not give you medical advice, but he shares what he has found over many years of research.  The co-author is a medical doctor and has a clinic in Florida for treatment.

This is an excellent book. I bought five copies to give to my loved ones and to a client with breast cancer.  If you want great ideas and recipees for healthy eating and foods that fight off cancer, this is a great book.  I don't even cook, but it explains the reasons and the why's certain foods can help prevent cancers from starting, as well as ways to eat to help your odds when fighting cancer and going through treatment.  I saw the author at a lecture, she really knows her stuff. The book explains it in simple terms, it's easy to blend into your lifestyle. Get healthy, avoid cancer, read this book!

Dr. Citrin's book is a breakthrough in understanding breast cancer. There are so many myths, i.e.: that only women get breast cancer or that all women who have breast cancer have the same kind... there are many types of breast cancer, which all need to be treated differently depending on the individual, including age, health history, genetics, lifestyle, etc. Dr. Citrin clearly defines that women need to empower themselves by being proactive in their approach for early detection as well as staying positive during the journey. This book offers stories of HOPE and that there are treatments, including combining medical and natural. The illustrations are beautifully crafted as well. This is a must read book for every women regardless of having breast cancer or please give the book to someone with breast cancer. Dr. Citrin shares educational insight along with a genuine concern for his patients, which shines throughout this book.

I was really lucky to get a review copy of this book before it was launched and I was totally blown away by the information in this book.  The author not only tells you what food is good for preventing cancers, she also explains why those foods work.  This is not a cookbook (although there are a couple of recipes in the book); it is a manual for keeping healthy, helping to prevent cancers and for even helping those people who have been diagnosed with cancer.

For example the author explains how a number of people with cancer actually die from malnutrition.  I always thought it was the tumors that would do it, but Joa Griffiths goes through and explains what happens to the body when cancer is taking it over.  Given that there is a high risk of cancer in my family line I will be using this book to help me with the grocery shopping from now on because there is a full list of foods you can and shouldn't eat.

The other thing I really liked about this book is that it is clear and easy to understand.  There is no hype, no fluff, just good solid advice that would benefit anyone whether they were worried about getting cancer or not.  There are even specific foods outlined that directly target some specific cancers like Breast cancer, Prostate Cancer and Colon Cancer.

The Big C is something we should all worry about because it can quite literally happen to anyone.  But if you follow the advice given in this book your immune system will be better able to fight the disease should it ever manifest itself in your system.  Highly recommended.

Not only is "Defeat Cancer" (by Greg Gore) a motivating story of personal cancer victory, but it is also one of the best cancer books on the market. Not only does it provide a comprehensive look at many non-toxic, effective cancer treatments, but it also provides crucial information on how to cleanse and detoxify the body and how to get the immune system back in balance.

In conventional cancer treatments, no consideration is given to strengthening, cleansing and healing the body, only how much toxic chemicals can be tolerated without causing death. Natural cancer treatments, on the other hand, focus on healing the entire person.  In his book, Mr. Gore has done a great job at summarizing some of the most effective natural cancer treatments available and even addresses many potent medicinal herbs.

Speaking from personal experience, Greg Gore shares vital knowledge regarding treating cancer, preventing cancer, and staying healthy. Readers may be surprised to learn that cancer is a political disease, and that in medicine, pharmaceutical profit takes precedence over scientific truth.

I'm the author of a best-selling book on cancer and another book on medicinal herbs, and I can tell you that this book, "Defeat Cancer" is a book that everyone should have in their library, especially in light of the fact that the World Health Organization stated (in 2010) that 41% of people alive today will face a cancer diagnosis. This book is excellent and could possibly save your life or the life of a loved one.  Buy it, study it, and become empowered with knowledge.

"A World Without Cancer" has given me a list of simple changes I am beginning to make to reduce my exposure to harmful chemicals in my personal grooming & cleaning products, and in my lifestyle choices. From eliminating shampoos, creams, and makeup with four harmful additives, to switching to dry cleaning that doesn't use harmful chemicals (surprisingly easy to find), to storing my foods in glass containers, I am viewing the many suggestions as an ongoing project in my life for myself and my family. Dr Cuomo offers suggestions for diet, including specific ingredients, water, supplements, medical testing, cell phone use, and medicines, just to name a few. This book is invaluable, and I expect I will be referring to it for many years to come. Thank you, Dr. Cuomo for being an advocate for us all.

This is a vitally important book for everyone dealing with cancer: patients, physicians, researchers, funding agencies, etc.

The basic idea - which is supported by much clinical, lab, and theoretical evidence - is that we can rapidly start improving patient outcomes by strategically combining treatments which are currently available or will be available soon, rather than trying to use one primary treatment at a time and then sequentially switching to another one when the previous one fails (hoping to find a "magic bullet").  The spectrum of treatments to choose from includes not just FDA-approved cancer treatments, but also many FDA-approved agents which can be used off-label, as well as many dietary supplements.  The hope and expectation is that such multi-targeted treatment combinations ("cocktails") will synergistically cross a threshold and overwhelm the robust defenses of tumors, resulting in greatly improved survival, if not cure.  There's no guarantee of success with this approach, and there are also risks of unanticipated adverse consequences, but this still appears to be the best way forward, especially for cancers for which standard treatments are relatively ineffective for most patients.

This book overlaps somewhat with other excellent books on this topic, such as&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Anticancer-A-New-Way-of-Life-New-Edition/dp/0670021644/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Anticancer, A New Way of Life, New Edition</a>,<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Life-Over-Cancer-The-Block-Center-Program-for-Integrative-Cancer-Treatment/dp/0553801147/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Life Over Cancer: The Block Center Program for Integrative Cancer Treatment</a>, and&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Surviving-Terminal-Cancer-Clinical-Trials-Drug-Cocktails-and-Other-Treatments-Your-Oncologist-Won-t-Tell-You-About/dp/1577491165/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Surviving Terminal Cancer: Clinical Trials, Drug Cocktails, and Other Treatments Your Oncologist Won't Tell You About</a>, but provides plenty of valuable information which isn't found in those books, and is also up to date on topics such as immunotherapy and epigenetics.  So, again, this is a MUST READ.

PS - There's a math error on page 44, where it's stated that three treatments each with a 15% chance of success will combine to have a 45% chance of success.  Clearly, seven such treatments won't have a 105% chance of success, so the math is a bit more complicated, but Dr. Chang has the right general idea that the chance of success goes up as more treatments are added.

This book was great, all you will ever need for a "cancer education"!  As a result of reading this, my family and I have made the necessary changes to avoid cancer...and if we do get cancer, then we will be ready to heal it!  Many thanks to Andreas Moritz

Marvelous book and a good cancer guide. Follow this book and you will not worry about your health. This book covers cancer and other degenerative diseases, which can be preventive using alternative treatments and a healthy dietary plan.

I first found this book in my local library.  After having read the book, I decided that it was worthwhile enough to purchase for my home library.

The book contains much useful information regarding the Cholesterol Myth.

The information I found I will be able to use to both make informed decisions for myself, as well as to discuss with my current General Practitioner.

I bought the book to have as a current reference that provides a lot of useful information in an understandable format.

One of the authors of the book is a Cardiologist.  He is an expert in his own right and contributed greatly to the useful information contained within the book.

Everyone who has had breast cancer or who has a loved one with breast cancer should read this book. In fact, every woman should read this book because it tells the truth about breast cancer, the politics behind the treatment of breast cancer, and tells you how to prevent it. Prevention isn't profitable, so we aren't going to learn about it in the doctors office. This is an in-depth look at a subject that until now hasn't been addressed at the level of hormones and diet. As they point out, the folks who put on "Breast Cancer Awareness" month claim that breast cancer can't be prevented. It can, and you'll understand why and how after you read this book. It's time that women took control of their health by being aware and educated, and this book is a great step in that direction. It's well-written, easy to understand and very thorough on the subject of breast cancer.
