DESCRIPTION:
There are many scientifically-supported nutrition factors that can slow or discourage cancer cells, including fish oil, phytoallexins from red and green fruits and vegetables, vitamin D, and much, much more. This book provides a well-documented approach for using an aggressive nutrition plan of food and supplements to: 1) reverse or avoid the common malnutrition that kills 42% of cancer patients 2) make chemo and radiation more of a selective toxin, thus protecting the patients' cells while making the cancer cells more vulnerable to medical elimination 3) slow cancer by limiting the amount of sugar available in the blood and gut for the glucose-dependent cancer cells 4) stimulate the immune system, which is in charge of killing all unwanted cells in the body, such as cancer 5) using foods and nutrition supplements as "biological response modifiers" to upregulate the body's built-in mechanism for eliminating cancer cells, such as apoptosis (programmed cell death).

The emphasis is mostly on nutriti. "Hope for Cancer Patients" according to nicole. Sound approach for any cancer patient to begin to use whole foods to heal from cancer. Dr. Quillin is an expert at the healing properties of foods and this book is not only loaded with clinical information in an easy to understand format, but also incudes practical menus and even a DVD for a quick reference. A must for every clinician to have in their arsenal, and for every person with cancer to better understand their body and how what they put in their mouth can affect disease.. Dr. Steve Dudley said A phenomenol gift. This book is pure empowerment in a time of disempowerment for a person with cancer. The medical establishment, although blessed with many effective treatments, has missed a large important piece of the health recovery puzzle. Patrick Quillin's book comes to the rescue. It should be priority reading for all cancer patients and providers. Lo, the teachings therein could serve as a preventive program for all people!
Still, this useful guide to authoritative alternatives in cancer treatment would be appreciated in public library or consumer health collections. .
