Excellent and very helpful imformation. The fear of cancer is, possibly, worse than the disease itself. Traditional medicine offers three choices: Surgery (I had 57 "places" removed before I said "Enough is enough!" and Chemotherapy (who really benefits from a destroyed immune system?) and Radiation (which actually CAUSES cancer). I highy recommend this book plus "The China Study" by Collin Campbell. These two books have changed my life for the better. I am healthy once again, I have more eneergy than when I was in my 30's, I sleep better (the body heals, primarily, during restful sleep), and I enjoy life with no fear of cancer any longer. GLL

Ruth Sackman is among this century's most diligent and authentic health pioneers swimming against the tide to get the word out that cancer is a degenerative disease at whose root is a sick immune system that just said, "OK, I quit".

If everyone would read this book, maybe people would begin by looking under their hood for the cause before smashing the red light on their dashboard (radiation / chemotherapy) with the "cure".

No tricks, gimmics or silver bullets. The only thing she's "selling" is common sense and right-eating. She saved my life nine years ago. At every annual visit my oncologist says, "keep doing what you're doing". I'm only following her advice. Try it, you'll live.

Ruth Sackman clearly makes the point that cancer sufferers need to work with a qualified physician to manage your illness. That said - she provides a wealth of information on nutritional and immune boosting therapies to assist in the improvement of the health of cancer patients. This is not a quick fix, and requires the dedication of the patient and their families to work - but in the end - isn't the outcome worth it?

We should all start looking at alternatives to current cancer treatments. Another wonderful resource is "Should I be tested for Cancer maybe not and here's why" by H. Gilbert Welch M.D. M.P.H.

Use this as a helpful foundation - if you have cancer - you will need alot more information than this book offers.
