PRAISE FOR SURVIVING CANCER

This is an excellent book…very informative and useful. It is factually supported, eminently readable and lucidly written. Surviving Cancer provides insight and valuable advice for anyone who has been diagnosed with cancer. As an oncologist working in this field for decades, I highly recommend this book. -- M.V. Pillai. MD, FACP, Clinical Professor of Oncology, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, PA, President & CEO, INCTR(USA) & Senior Advisor - Global Virus Network. ***

Surviving Cancer offers hope and a strategy for anyone who has been diagnosed with a solitary tumor.

In reading these pages, you will learn that the body can continue living while accommodating a solitary cancer. There are actions you can take that may prevent it from spreading, even if there are complications.

Surviving Cancer explains how you can change your diet and lifestyle habits to survive cancer -- to keep it from metastasizing and spreading to other organs in your body. Most of all, it will explain how you can literally starve cancer cells... forcing them to disappear or die.

The main focus of this book will teach you that diet is perhaps the key factor in defeating cancer, especially avoiding grains. Grains create enormous amounts of glucose in your bloodstream--and cancer cells thrive on glucose to survive and multiply. High blood sugar levels also encourage the body to release insulin, and again, this is a great danger to your cancer. Insulin promotes cell growth, including cancer cells. The book provides insightful information on the causes of cancer, how it forms, how it may spread, and what you can do to control the cancer and return to a healthy life. The chapters also contain specific advice on avoiding exposure to environmental toxins; the value of sleep, exercise, and stress reduction; the use of spices in cooking; building good bacteria in your gut; and many other factors you con control that may help prevent a cancer from spreading to other parts of the body.

This book is for anyone who has cancer localized to a single site and not yet colonized in another part of the body. It is also for anyone who believes they are at risk of cancer due to heredity, lifestyle, working conditions, or for any other reason.

Surviving Cancer is also especially important for anyone with Type 2 diabetes, with or without cancer, to learn about the link between the two.If you have diabetes, this is an important cautionary book to read to prevent yourself from developing cancer.

FEAR. Fear is what most people feel upon receiving a diagnosis ofcancer—and perhaps you are experiencing it. The capacity to feel fear is an integral part of humannature, but so are adaptations that allowed our ancestors to survive life-threatening situationsfor tens of thousands of years.HOPE. Hope is my objective in writing this book, to share with you that it is possible formost people confronted with the prospect of dying from cancer to lessen the degree of threatthat cancer makes on their life. There are real actions you can take to prevent yourself from dyingfrom cancer. If reading this book reduces the intensity and duration of your cancer-relatedanxiety and fear, I will have accomplished my minimum objective in writing it.In a nutshell, you will learn that if you have been diagnosed with a solitary cancer, such as atumor, it may cause symptoms due to its location or size. But in a vast majority of cases, a solitarycancer can be treated, or removed. It is when that cancer releases thousands of cancer cells thatroam all parts of the body, scouting for suitable locations to start their own housekeeping thatmakes cancer life threatening. If even just a few succeed, they can create enough disruption ofmetabolic processes in the body to endanger life itself. They do so by confiscating nutrients yournormal cells need to sustain themselves, not just in one site but in multiple parts of your body.As a metaphor, we have to think of cancer as an iceberg in the ocean and you are a boatapproaching it. One can’t know the true size of the iceberg by looking at the top of it. You canonly see the portion above the water, and what is beneath the sea is far larger. Similarly, one can’tknow how long a cancer has been in existence when it is detected; it may have been growing foryears, if not decades. One can navigate around a solitary iceberg once the location and the directionof the iceberg’s movement is known. More often than not, one can survive a solitary canceronce the location and size are known. But the chance of an accident increases when one has tonavigate around multiple icebergs. In the same way, when the number of cancers or cancer sitesin the body is increased, the chance of survival is reduced.My message is that many types of cancer are survivable—and this book will serve as yourguide around the iceberg. In reading these pages, you will see that the body can continue livingwhile accommodating a solitary cancer.
