Natural Strategies for Cancer Patients

This book is for anyone who has cancer, had cancer, has a genetic predisposition towards cancer or who's passionately interested in leading edge nutritional information. Blaylock persuasively and effectively drives home the message that cancer can be prevented, lessened, and possibly even cured by what you eat. Nutritional fitness is especially important for those dealing with chemo and radiation treatments because they do such great damage to the immune system. His bottom line advice is to veggie overdose and to cut out caloric sweeteners, processed foods, additives and omega-six oils. Those are the supposedly-healthy polyunsaturated oils that every major health organization says you should eat. Blaylock also advocates supplementation and gives explicit advice about types, quantities and how to determine a good manufacturer from a not-so-good one. Blaylock's writing style is particularly smart and easy-to-read. He has the rare ability to explain complex ideas in a way that most people can understand. This book was so interesting, so informative and so filled with information you won't find elsewhere, I literally could not put it down. Honestly, I finished it in two days with no skimming. I have read hundreds of books on diet and nutrition, and Natural Strategies stands way up and way apart from the pack. Do yourself a favor, spend the $11 and give yourself or someone you love the gift of life. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I tried one of those new diets that claimed to have the latest cutting edge research on health and longevity. It claimed that lectins were the root cause of my joint pain and if I quit eating them it would go away. After being on the diet for quite some time and eating a lot of coconut, eggs, and nuts I was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer on the same side of my colon as my severely arthritic hip. While on the diet my joint pain actually got worse. After reading Dr. Blaylock's book I learned that certain cancers including colon have a strong link to inflammation. He has a section in the book on inflammation that includes a list of plant flavonoids that are very strong inhibitors of the inflammatory COX and LOX enzymes . Since I've started taking them my hip feels much better with a lot less pain. He also said that a lot of foods I had been eating were very high in arachidonic acid which he calls fertilizer for cancer cells. I've now quit eating all of them. Being familiar with Dr. Blaylock who I first saw on a program called your health with Dr. Richard and Cindy Becker I knew he was someone I could trust for very well researched and honest information on the treatment of my cancer. Hardly a day goes by that I don't read it. Update 7/12/23 I just got the results of a post surgery CT DNA blood test which detects the presence of cancer anywhere in the body and it was negative so now I go into a monitoring phase to see if it comes back. Even though the surgery was necessary I'm convinced that following the recommendations in this book made a tremendous difference by enhancing the radiation/chemo treatment effectiveness, minimizing the side effects of the treatments, and preventing the spread of the disease. The tumor thickness was 2.5 cm before the chemo/radiation treatments and before the surgery it had shrunk to less than 1 cm and a lot of the tumor mass was dead cancer cells. I know this because the pathology report on a pre-surgery tumor sample that was taken came back benign. Another thing that made me realize the book made a big difference was that during my post surgery recovery stay in the hospital a dietician visited me and was very anxious to know how I did so well with the cancer when most of the people she visited with the same condition weren't doing very well. The first thing I told her about was this book. Here are some things I learned during the process that I hope may be helpful: -- If you decide to try the books recommendations for supplements get the ones he recommends, they're expensive but as I kept telling myself you don't get a do over. -- I'm trying not to give away the recommendations in the book because you need to buy it but Pectasol (modified citrus pectin) was also recommended to me by another source as a way of preventing metastasis. Even though I had four lymph nodes infected none of the scans ever detected any cancer spread. I took 1.5 scoops twice a day on an empty stomach and usually waited at least 20 mins before eating anything. -- Two other books were very helpful during the process Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices by Dr. Norman Walker and The Greatest Manifestation Principle in the World by Carnelian Sage (I tried to do that one every day) -- Read the whole book not just the index listings for you specific cancer, for mine I found several references to colon cancer that weren't under colon cancer in the index -- For me his recommendation on the omega 6 fats to avoid turned out to be very important -- Many of the chemo drugs mentioned in the book in association with a specific supplement had different names so do some research. For example the book mentions 5FU which turned out to be the IV form of Xeloda the chemo pill they had me take. I didn't find that out until halfway through my chemo treatment when the oncologist happened to mention it in passing.

My daughter has brain cancer stage 2, just had her surgery and now the doctors in germany don't know that to do cause the cancer is to rare that they have no experiences with it. We here in US have more experiences with it but we want to help her from here with remedies and not only chemical medications. Coming over to here for treatments and more is without being a us citizen to expensive. So i bought this book and what i found is awesome, exactly what my doctor told me i should tell her about the nutrients and supplements she should take to avoid that the cancer cells coming back or worse. as a homeopath i had cancer on my own and i won the battle without chemo and more years ago and now i can show my daughter what is possible to help her immune system to fight for, this is important that she helped her immune system to fight and i will send her this book that she can read it on her own and maybe she believe it, we will see. i am a full believer cause i went through it but everybody is unique everybody need to fight for his/her own no doubt about it. this book for me its worth to buy and read and try it.

Befasse mich seit Jahren mit Krebs und seiner Prävention. Dr. Blaylock wie auch Dr. Coldwell sind zwei fantastische Natural Healer. Kann alle Bücher von Dr. Blaylock uneingeschränkt empfehlen.

Fue un regalo y le ha gustado mucho. Me dijo que ha sido muy útil.

This book is very useful For anyone with cancer or who wants to prevent it. The presentation, cover, content and knowledge of the author everything is good. Very valuable as oncologists cannot guide you in nutrition and supplements. So a patient cannot afford to be be just passive. He has to take control in his hands and this book is a must for him. Loved it.

Written from an MD's perspective, this book gives detailed information on navigating the medical treatments for cancer and tips on healing from them naturally including boosting your immune system through diet and supplements.

This is an absolute must-read book for anyone who wants to know how to deal with cancer having the strongest possible immune system. Full of gold advice on how to strengthen the body before chemo and radiation if one chooses that path. I especially liked all the very helpful advice on exactly which supplements to take, and how they work in the body. I really like it that we get told in detail about chemo and radiation, the damage they do and how, and that we get given alternative strategies as well.This book I will keep forever..
