Download or read book Zest for Life written by Conner Middelmann-Whitney and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2010 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What we eat – and don’t eat – influences our chances of developing cancer. A diet rich in vegetables, fruits, fatty fish, olive oil, garlic, herbs and spices provides compounds that significantly lower our risks. Meanwhile, a typical western diet of processed meat and refined sugar and starch and unhealthy vegetable oils encourages cancer cells to grow. Many of us know about the importance of a healthy diet, but most of us need help building menus that are best for our bodies. Zest for Life, the first cancer-prevention guide based on the traditional Mediterranean diet, gives all the information and practical advice you need for a delicious diet to boost your defences.Inspired by rich and healthy culinary traditions from countries around the Mediterranean – including Italy, France, Spain, Greece, Morocco – Zest for Life celebrates the restorative powers of eating well, with an emphasis on fresh, varied ingredients, simple preparations and conviviality. This is no short-term ‘diet’ involving hunger and deprivation; Zest for Life shows how you can eat delicious, healthy food every day, year after year. The book has a 120-page science section outlining the principles of anti-cancer eating based on the latest medical research and over 160 family-friendly recipes. It addresses not only cancer patients and their carers, but also healthy individuals wishing to boost their defences. Author Conner Middelmann-Whitney’s engaging style and clear writing make this book highly accessible for people of all ages and walks of life. Pragmatic, not preachy, Conner shares her personal cancer story and suggests many simple ways in which anti-cancer eating can fit into busy schedules and tight budgets. Conner is donating 25 per cent of her royalties (32 pence per book sold) to Maggie's Cancer Caring Centres, a UKregistered charity (number SC024414). “We are delighted that Zest for Life is supporting Maggie's,” said Laura Lee, chief executive of Maggie's. “We believe that everyone who is affected by cancer should be given the information and choices they need to live life with, through and beyond cancer. Zest for Life is another important tool in that process.”
Download or read book The Anti Breast Cancer Cookbook written by Julia B. Greer, MD, MPH and published by Sunrise River Press. This book was released on 2013-01-18 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer diagnosed among women in the United States. It is second only to lung cancer as a leading cause of cancer death in females. The National Cancer Institute estimated that 230,480 women were diagnosed with breast cancer in the US in 2011 and 39,520 women died from it. And the scary part is anyone can get cancer. There is no single diet, food, or nutrient that will keep you from getting cancer. However, in the same way that wearing a seatbelt may protect you from being injured in a car accident, eating certain types of food may help to protect you from developing many cancers, including breast cancer. Dr. Julia Greer - cancer expert and author of The Anti-Cancer Cookbook - pulls together everything you need to know about breast cancer and the foods you should eat to protect you from developing breast cancer. She shares her collection of more than 200 recipes for sauces, main courses, sandwiches, breads, desserts and beverages - many of which are vegan or vegetarian and over half are gluten free. All of the recipes are made from common everyday ingredients chock-full of powerful antioxidants that may significantly slash your risk of developing breast cancer.
