Book excerpt: A Natural Guide to Treatment of Cancer, Breast Cancer, Cancer and Nutrition, Beating Cancer and Fighting Cancer. Want to Live? Want to Beat That Cancer? Do Everything Possible to Win? See Your Kids & Grandkids Grow Up? Walk Away ALIVE? There are WELL DOCUMENTED, PEER REVIEWED Studies That Show You Free or Nearly Free Things You Can DO That REALLY IMPROVE YOUR CHANCES! I'm a #1 Bestselling (in Amazon Health) author and spent 5 years writing this little book for my wife and her family -- so far, except for her, they ALL have gotten BREAST CANCER and they all died. It's horrible. And they're NOT BRCA gene positive. She's the lone survivor still standing (she was the youngest out of 5 women) and I really wish to keep her that way. So let me share what I found with you -- it's written from my heart, it's everything I could come up with after 30 years of practicing medicine. And I wrote this for you -- you women with breast cancer -- trying to survive, scared to death. I want to level the playing field for you...AND I FOUND IT'S AMAZING WHAT ALL YOU CAN DO TO SURVIVE! I believe, with all my heart, that if you do everything that studies suggest you should do, you can increase your odds of survival, odds of WINNING, odds of killing the beast of BREAST CANCER, MANY-FOLD. First I tell you how to REALLY predict your odds of getting breast cancer -- you have to know this. Then I tell you EVERYTHING documented in the peer-reviewed medical literature that can help you prevent breast cancer. 30+ STEPS! WOW! Then I give you the meat -- for those of you with breast cancer (I am soo sorry) -- on EVERYTHING you can do to improve your odds of surviving, of going into COMPLETE REMISSION (WINNING!!!). PLUS I give you lists to make it easy to follow. Have ACTIVE Cancer? Doctors say your Chances are LOW? Scared to DEATH? I show you what kind & how FASTING prior to your CHEMO can increase your odds of COMPLETE REMISSION plus reduce your chemo side effects. For Early Stage (or ANY Stage) Cancers I show you how to DRAMATICALLY reduce your chance for METASTASES -- a CRITICAL THING! Cancer cells have roughly 8X the metabolic needs of regular cells -- I show you research to use this against those bad cells! Did you know there's a cheap easy-to-take medication that any doctor can prescribe that INCREASES your chance of COMPLETE REMISSION by 50% or more? I show you a great (but all natural) prescription medicine you can get to increase your odds for COMPLETE REMISSION by 5 FOLD!! (Plus get rid of miserable symptoms caused by some of the therapies you're going through)! What’s a Stage 4 Breast Cancer Diagnosis Chance of Survival? 15% UGH! But do what the literature actually suggests? How high can you go? Whether you have a Stage 1 or Stage 4 BREAST CANCER, you are in for a FIGHT for YOUR LIFE, and you need to do EVERYTHING your doctor tells you to do -- from CHEMO to SURGERY. But what if I can show you how to do what your doctor says but to do it a little differently, to tweak things a little to massively improve your odds of winning against this beast? And really-- does your doctor know everything? I don't. And I've been practicing medicine for 30 years. I've even written a textbook on Preventive Medicine (my Program120 book) and 11 other books (yes, and some have been bestsellers on Amazon) but I wrote this book FOR YOU and FOR YOUR DOCTORS -- all these studies are peer reviewed, solid and major trials -- nothing small. Your surgeons and doctors just don't have the time to look all of this up and to sit and chat with you for hours about all of this. So I put it into a book (and an online course too you can view but that's for another time and place) -- I've thrown it out there -- and I do not take this lightly or I could be sued into oblivion.

Within three weeks of being diagnosed she had a mastectomy and was on the road to recovery. But after the surgery she had a lot of questions, the same that most women will have. As an Occupational Therapist, she knew some of the answers from her own clinical training and experience. But many more came from speaking with other women who had undergone mastectomies, from researching message boards, and a little bit of luck. Now she and her co-authors have brought together the answers to the questions that women face in chapters that cover everything from how to prepare for going to the hospital to when you come home" -- publisher's web site.
Download or read book The Black Woman s Breast Cancer Survival Guide written by Cheryl D. Holloway and published by . This book was released on with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breast cancer is reaching epidemic levels, especially among black women. This survival guide provides tools that women--black women in particular--can use to identify and combat this all-too-common threat. This "what you need to know" guide is unique in its common sense, "laywoman's" approach and particular relevance to women of color. Its premise is simple: ignorance and lack of education about breast cancer signs and symptoms are still all too prevalent among black women. Many women are not informed about resources available for early detection screening and are not referred for mammography screening. They may also receive significantly delayed treatment--especially black women. For those reasons and more, black women with or at risk for breast cancer need an advocate who speaks for them and tells them the truth. They have that advocate in Cheryl Holloway, PhD--and in this book. A breast cancer survivor and cancer researcher, Dr. Holloway draws on her personal experience and research to offer something far different than the usual medical/oncological works. Her book provides support, current information, and practical advice for confronting and beating the disease. The book is divided into four parts. "Dealing with the Basics" explains how breast cancer hits black women harder and discusses the types of breast cancer they may develop, with an emphasis on the most dangerous. The second section offers practical information, such as how screenings work and the meaning of various breast cancer tests. Part three describes treatments, including surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, combined therapy, and other options. The final section describes how to stay vigilant after the cancer is gone and also discusses other forms of cancer for which black women are at risk, such as lung cancer, colon cancer, and cervical cancer.

Empower yourself with facts and strategies to understand your breasts, reduce your cancer risk, and open your eyes to interventions and treatments. Most women don’t want to hear about breast cancer unless they have it and need to make some decisions, but these days news about breast cancer—the number one killer of women ages twenty to fifty-nine—is everywhere. Chances are you know someone who has had it. But did you know that choices you make every day bring you closer to breast cancer—or move you farther away?

Download or read book Ensuring Quality Cancer Care written by National Cancer Policy Board and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-08-04 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all want to believe that when people get cancer, they will receive medical care of the highest quality. Even as new scientific breakthroughs are announced, though, many cancer patients may be getting the wrong care, too little care, or too much care, in the form of unnecessary procedures. How close is American medicine to the ideal of quality cancer care for every person with cancer? Ensuring Quality Cancer Care provides a comprehensive picture of how cancer care is delivered in our nation, from early detection to end-of-life issues. The National Cancer Policy Board defines quality care and recommends how to monitor, measure, and extend quality care to all people with cancer. Approaches to accountability in health care are reviewed. What keeps people from getting care? The book explains how lack of medical coverage, social and economic status, patient beliefs, physician decision-making, and other factors can stand between the patient and the best possible care. The board explores how cancer care is shaped by the current focus on evidence-based medicine, the widespread adoption of managed care, where services are provided, and who provides care. Specific shortfalls in the care of breast and prostate cancer are identified. A status report on health services research is included. Ensuring Quality Cancer Care offers wide-ranging data and information in clear context. As the baby boomers approach the years when most cancer occurs, this timely volume will be of special interest to health policy makers, public and private healthcare purchasers, medical professionals, patient advocates, researchers, and people with cancer.
Download or read book Breast Cancer Global Quality Care written by Didier Verhoeven and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing or existing breast cancer centres strive to provide the highest quality care possible within their current financial and personnel resources. Although the basics in diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer are well known, providing, monitoring, and assessing the care offered can be challenging for most sites. Based on the work of the International Congress of Breast Disease Centres, this book provides a comprehensive overview of how to start or improve a breast unit wherever you live. Written by a multidisciplinary team of over 100 experts from 25 countries, it provides a practical guide for how to optimally organise high quality integrated breast cancer care, whilst taking into account the local economics and resources available to different countries. Each component of the care pathway, including imaging, surgery, systemic treatment, nursing, and genetic assessment, is discussed from a theoretical and practical aspect. The authors define targets to strive for, methods to assess care, and key recommendations for how to improve within existing limitations. Finally, the book looks beyond the breast care unit to consider accreditation and certification, emerging technologies, media, and the role of governments. This guide will be valuable for anyone working in the field of integrated breast cancer care, including established breast care experts, those new to the field, and policy makers interested in the social, financial, and political aspects of improving breast care quality.
