Overview

More and more people who have been diagnosed with cancer or related illnesses embrace alternative medicines, and seek out holistic practitioners who use vitamins, herbs, nutrition, homeopathy, and acupuncture to treat the disease. This long-awaited book by Donald Yance—one of the nation's most respected herbalists—is a major contribution to the literature of natural healing and cancer.

Donald Yance, C.N., M.H., is a certified nutritionist and clinical master herbalist who specializes in nutritional and herbal approaches to cancer, AIDS, heart disease, and other chronic health conditions. He has written for several nutritional/herbal journals and has been a contributing writer for a number of books on healing.

Arlene Valentine is a freelance writer based in Connecticut.

"...chapters include the author's personal philosophy of healing, the definition of cancer, how to make the most effective diet choices, cancer therapies, how supplements can help, and an overview of the different types of cancer."

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
A certified nutritionist and master herbalist, Yance here touches on the very broad areas of herbs, natural healing, and cancer. While critical of the established medical community for its attitude toward natural healing, whose scientific basis he tries to explain with extensive references, he nevertheless combines conventional therapies with herbs, nutritional supplements, and lifestyle changes to achieve the best results. Yance covers many topics but not in enough depth to make this book useful for lay readers, except for the sample recipes and coverage of the natural ways to relieve the side effects of chemotherapy. The chapters on the chemical composition of herbs and supplements are more suitable for medical doctors, herbalists, and nutritionists. Recommended for specialized collections of herbal medicine.--Lily Liu, Arkansas Children's Hosp. Lib., Little Rock Copyright 1999 Cahners Business Information.
