Download or read book Cancer Improving Your Odds written by John G. Herron and published by Eagle Stock Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you looking for actionable things that you can do to help your cancer treatment, or possibly prevent cancer in the first place? Something with scientific evidence that it works? Something that you won’t be embarrassed to discuss with your family doctor or oncologist? Something that can improve your immune system and general health? That is exactly what you will find in this book. Read on for… • Actionable methods for naturally treating and preventing cancer (the scientific way, not the internet blogger way) • Simple things that you can add to your medical treatment to Improve Your Odds of successfully fighting cancer • 100% backed by science that you, or your doctor, can easily verify • Easy to read and understand, but formatted so that you can share the science with your doctor • Improve your immune system and general health • Evidence that some of the recommendations may significantly improve immunotherapy outcomes, as well as benefit chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments. • New research information that has the potential to save many lives My hope is you’ll use this information to improve your medical treatment, not replace it. Even though some of the natural treatments have been scientifically shown to be very effective on their own, they are even more effective when used in conjunction with modern medicine. This is called “adjuvant” therapy. You should strive to “Improve Your Odds” of beating cancer, not thumb your nose at modern medicine. You do not need a scientific or medical background to understand this narrative—but its claims are evidenced with scientific abstracts that your doctor will appreciate (abstracts that you can skip if you wish to cut your reading time in half!). You will find that all recommendations have solid evidence behind them; this isn’t just another book where someone is simply making it all up and telling you what you want to hear. You should read this book with a highlighter and pencil at your side. This book has been extensively researched, and some of the information found here you will probably find in no other book or medical website. There is a special emphasis on how you can improve your immune system to better fight almost any cancer, even before you know you have it. You aren’t trying to fire your doctor; you just want to help “Improve Your Odds.” This book will help you do that. Your oncologist will want to know all of the supplements you are taking and why. This book includes the scientific abstracts and the information they need to find the full research studies. This will explain the “why” so you don’t have to. They may also want to geek out on all of this science as they rarely get exposed to research on natural cancer treatments. Finally, this book enables you to take some control over your cancer treatment or genetic predisposition. In fact, most of the recommendations in this book are great even if you are healthy, as they can help prevent cancer and improve your immune system, too. Whether you may have breast cancer, skin cancer, lung cancer, etc., improving the immune system and your body’s ability to fight cancer is always beneficial.
Download or read book Reading and Writing Cancer How Words Heal written by Susan Gubar and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2016-05-17 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important addition to the literature of cancer by an award-winning scholar and memoirist. Elaborating upon her “Living with Cancer” column in the New York Times, Susan Gubar helps patients, caregivers, and the specialists who seek to serve them. In a book both enlightening and practical, she describes how the activities of reading and writing can right some of cancer’s wrongs. To stimulate the writing process, she proposes specific exercises, prompts, and models. In discussions of the diary of Fanny Burney, the stories of Leo Tolstoy and Alice Munro, numerous memoirs, novels, paintings, photographs, and blogs, Gubar shows how readers can learn from art that deepens our comprehension of what it means to live or die with the disease. From a writer whose own memoir, Memoir of a Debulked Woman: Enduring Ovarian Cancer, was described by the New York Times Book Review as “moving and instructive…and incredibly brave,” this volume opens a path to healing.
Download or read book Cancer A Love Story written by Lauren Segal and published by Jaico Publishing House. This book was released on 2019-10-17 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Memoir of a four-time cancer survivor LAUREN SEGAL Cancer: A Love Story is the intimately searing memoir of a four-time cancer survivor. The book breathlessly tracks author Lauren Segal’s journey to come to terms with the untold challenges of facing the dreaded disease. Forced to face her needle phobia, the author leads the reader into her crumbling world as she confronts the terrors of treatment—from debilitating chemo to nuking radiation. Death is her uninvited companion. But in the midst of her lonely horror, in a quest for deeper meaning, Lauren discovers the unexpected gift of awareness of unanticipated opportunities that cancer presents—to confront her unmasked humanity—her fears, strengths and weaknesses. “I have come to understand that in the same way that the majestic lotus flower has its roots in murky waters, so too does the emergence of beauty in life sometimes depend on life’s darker events.” Lauren Segal currently works as a museum curator; her most recent project is curating and designing the new Johannesburg Holocaust and Genocide Centre. She heads up Trace, a research, design and exhibition company. Inspired by her own journey into self-discovery and healing, Lauren is currently studying part-time to become a psychoanalyst. “What a privilege to read this immensely inspirational and brave story. Lauren’s personality and energy leaps off the page – the mark of a natural and gifted writer.” —David Cohen, campaigns editor and chief feature writer, London Evening Standard

Download or read book Reimagining Women s Cancers written by Michele Berman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's fascination with celebrities never gets old. From People magazine, with a readership of 43 million to Internet sites like JustJared.com with over 80 million monthly views, celebrity information not only sells, it educates people about important issues––including cancer. Information is empowering and reading about a famous person coping with cancer can not only be inspiring, it can save a life. That's what Reimagining Cancer exemplifies through each of the books in the series Cancer doesn't have to be a death sentence. About half of all cancers are preventable and can be avoided if current medical knowledge is better delivered*. This new series, beginning with Reimagining Women's Cancers—focusing on cancer of the breasts, ovaries, uterus, cervix, vagina and vulva—provides readers with that critical information to help them manage, cope, and recover through a concise, easy-to-read style and format. Beginning with a view of basic anatomy and an overview of how we view a particular cancer today, chapters flow easily into an explanation of signs, symptoms, diagnosis, scientific information and guidelines, and include a comprehensive survey of treatments and prevention. Woven throughout are stories, both medical and anecdotal, from women such as Angelina Jolie, Joan Lunden, Melissa Etheridge, Sandra Lee, Rita Wilson, Christina Applegate, and Suzanne Somers. Education is the key, and by using celebrity stories, Reimagining Women's Cancers can attract countless readers who might otherwise not pay attention to an epidemic that is likely to affect them or a loved one. * The recent World Cancer Report from the World Health Organization
