Renown scientist and epidemiologist, Dr. Vijaya Nair has written a concise book for the lay public that both brilliantly and simply outlines how to prevent the most chronic of the illnesses and diseases that afflict the American population today. --Bharat B.

Dr. Nair makes a compelling case for inflammation as the root cause for cancer and other diseases of aging and brings solid scientific support for its prevention with anti-inflammatory therapies.

This is an excellent book which is clearly written and easy to read for both lay persons and those working in the field of Health Care. The information presented in Dr. Nair s book provides a comprehensive description of the role of nutrition and the importance of phytochemicals in combination with daily regimes including meditation and exercise, as powerful weapons in helping win the battle against disease. I would heartily recommend this book to all those interested in trying to improve/maintain their health or the health of others. --Margaret R.

This review is from: Prevent Cancer, Strokes, Heart Attacks and other Deadly Killers! (Paperback)

The best way to fight cancer is to never get it. "Prevent Cancer: Strokes, Heart Attacks, and Other Deadly Killers" is Vijaya Nair's guide to cancer prevention, claiming that these ailments are caused by a constant inflammation of the body. Persistent exposure to this leads to many major ailments that many fear as they go through life, and Nair seeks to explain her theory as well as offering tips on avoiding inflammation in everyday life. "Prevent Cancer" is a new approach to health and prevention of cancer, highly recommended.

This review is from: Prevent Cancer, Strokes, Heart Attacks and other Deadly Killers! (Paperback)

This book combines both Eastern and Western proven methods for curing/fighting cancer. My mother chose to forgo chemo for her breast cancer and was healed by implementing the fermented soy. My aunt, also cured herself of skin cancer using the fermented soy. Fermented soy (Haelan) is truly a God send. This book is a must read.

This review is from: Prevent Cancer, Strokes, Heart Attacks and other Deadly Killers! (Paperback)

The author has been applying Western scientific study to some Eastern medical wisdom and practices. I consider the information she provides in this little book to be highly valuable. In fact, this information could reduce chronic diseases and lower health care costs for individuals and for the nation.
