Product description

Beating Cancer with Nutrition. Sugar feeds Cancer: diet and supplements can starve tumorsÂ· Nutrition makes chemo and radiation more toxic to the tumor while protecting the patient. Nutrition changes underlying causes of cancer, improving outcome for cancer patients regardless of other therapies. Why Beating Cancer with Nutrition is unique: The book was developed after working with over 500 cancer patients and organizing 3 international symposiums on the subject. The information contained in BCN is both scientifically backed with references and clinically proven in the hospital with patients. This information helps cancer patients to improve quality and quantity of life. BCN had been translated into Japanese and Chinese and is being translated into Korean. BCN had become a home study continuing education course for registered nurses. BCN 2001 version will contain a 72-minute audio CD version in response to the requests from tired cancer patients who said they needed and audio version of the book to get started. BCN had sold 110,000 copies in 7 years in print, which is impressive for small publishers. Why Patrick Quillin is Unique: For the past 10 years, Dr. Patrick Quillin has served as the Director of Nutrition for Cancer Treatment Centers of America. He is an internationally respected expert in the area of nutrition and cancer. He has earned his bachelor's, Master's and doctorate degrees in nutrition and is a registered and licensed dietitian ( RD & LD) and Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) with the American College of Nutrition.

« THE best book to read, whether you're sick or not!! »

I have had this book for over 5 yrs. This book should be read by EVERYONE. It contains information VITAL to persons who may be ill with Cancer and will certainly help them in their journey to recovery. For those who are not ill it is a great boon to their metabolism and to their overall health by avoiding the 'wrong' foods and eating those foods which only help our bodies. For those who are CAREGIVERS this is a MUST-READ. You CAN BEAT Cancer...I am proof, this great book, alternative treatments and putting GOD first will certainly bring healing to those afflicted. There is another book I would buy in connection with this book and that is a small book by Dodie Osteen, the mother of Pastor Joel Osteen, who's book..."Healed of Cancer" is a must read and I read it daily while undergoing chemo treatment and it certainly gave me a whole new outlook on life and faith. I have purchased BOTH books and given them out free to others so afflicted in the hopes that they have a full recovery such as I did. To God be the Glory!!

« Questions, Uncertainty, Calm »

I was told I had pancreatic cancer 3 months ago, I have had chemo, lapraoscopic procedures to determine any metastatic activity and have read several books with subjects ranging from nutrition to spiritual healing. I believe all the facets of healing have merit, however the one book I have read that I can truly understand, in layman's terms, is BEATING CANCER WITH NUTRITION. Dr. Quillin has written this book with an obvious amount of research and understanding of the various challenges cancer patients face.

My previous work experience involved working closely with animal nutritionist as it relates to vitamins, both macro and micro minerals and amino acids. I have experienced proper nutrition in animals and the vast improvements proper nutrition can offer. Needless to say, I should have been following a nutritional protocol that was as well balanced as described above. I might not be experiencing this journey of cancer I'm currently battling. Believe you me, I am following a well balanced nutritional protocol now.

Everyone should read this book. It contains a wealth of information that can do you no harm...no side effects, no pain, no anything but knowledge. Do it...you won't be sorry.

Thank you,
GWB

« Covers a lot of ground »

One of the better books on a nutritional approach to cancer. Surviving "Terminal" Cancer by Ben Williams, A Cancer Battle Plan by Anne Frahm, and Anticancer by David Schreiber, MD were also very informative.

« must read - wished we read this book the first time C came around »

Thank you for writing this book - although it is more technical, which does the more medical readers a more interesting insight as well. However, the book provided plenty of information in layman terms that you would not feel that you have missed out on any information.

From our experience, we have seen how nutrition has supported RT, Chemo; but we were not as brave not to apply these treatments; we are using RT to 'debulk' the C cells and allow the nutrition to support the body to clean up the rest of the C cells that modern technology can not even detect.

The book is a wealth of information that is so useful for both the patient and the rest of the family! we realized we could be that close to getting C if we dont change our diet drastically, and we have a pretty healthy diet, so I thought.
The book gave us a lot of hope in fighting this C, whereas the doctors have applied a very negative view since we all have learnt there is a huge limitation of what chemo and RT can actually do on its own. We have taken the power back from the doctors and it feels good that we can now take charge by making sure the patient is being feed the food that the body needs. So far so good, even though we have been given the stage IV diagnosis, the doctors have not been able to explain why the tumors have shrunk (this was before treatment and just by changing the diet completely for three weeks before treatment could start)!!! Every body is different, but we know diet is making a huge difference.

it is must read book to allow you to have the power back and take away the feeling that the floor has been taken away from your feet. Choose a doctor that supports your nutrition - it is critical.

« Contolling my PSA with Dr. Quillin's book »

I went to Barnes and Noble, after my PSA returned after surgery and radiation therapy, to buy the book "How we Die", I couldn't find it. Instead I came across Dr. Quillin's book and cd. I briefly read through it and told myself, I've got nothing to lose, so I gave it a try and here I am today to thank him. It really does work, if you have the discipline. The problem I've encountered with my friends who have been diagnosed with cancer, is that they are scared and invariably go for whatever their doctor thinks is best for them. That's why I just buy them the book and hope they read it and try to show them by my example that you really can improve your odds of survival if you are willing to give up the things that are harmful and focus on the things that are good for you.
