Cancer-Free with Food: A Step-by-Step Plan with 100+ Recipes to Fight Disease, Nourish Your Body & Restore Your Health

by Liana Werner Gray, Mark Hyman MD (Foreword by)

Overview

The best-selling author of The Earth Diet offers a simple yet comprehensive guide to nutrition for those who have been diagnosed with cancer. With a foreword by Mark Hyman, M.D.

If you want to fight cancer, what should you eat?

Food is medicine. By now, this important message has made its way from holistic circles to the mainstream. To ward off cancer and decrease its risk, meals specially formulated to nourish, soothe, and fortify can be an important part of treatment. But what foods work best? That remains frustratingly elusive and time-consuming to research.

Happily, author Liana Werner-Gray—known for her best-selling books including The Earth Diet and 10-Minute Recipes—has done the research for you. Within these pages she has gathered the best foods for various types of cancer, along with 195 simple and tested recipes created to boost your immune system and promote healing. Designed to work on their own or in conjunction with other therapies, these healthy and appealing meals can also be tailored for a gluten-free, keto, vegan, and paleo diet.
