Editorial Review:The New York Times bestseller takes us on an empowering journey and changes the way we think about fighting cancer David Servan-Schreiber's story of his journey from cancer patient to health combines memoir with a clear scientific explanation of what makes cancer cells thrive and what inhibits them. Anticancer is filled with easy to understand charts and diagrams and a sixteen-page color "Anticancer Action" insert that enables readers to make small but essential changes in lifestyle and diet. Your body knows how to fight cancer, says Servan-Schreiber, and you have to help it with nutrition, physical exercise, stress management, and avoiding environmental toxins. Anticancer enables people living with cancer to adopt a proactive attitude to living, even thriving, with cancer and helps healthy people prevent it.

This book is a life changer. It is written so that a lay person can understand it. Having taught at a medical school I can also say that it is very well documented and up-to-date. I advise not only those suffering from cancer but also those who wish to prevent it to read it and share with friends. I purchased several copies to share it with others. READ IT!

I had a very healthy lifestyle before being diagnosed ... Read More
