The Macrobiotic Approach To Cancer

The revised and expanded edition of the book that started Dr. Anthony Sattilaro on his remarkable recovery from cancer, as reported in Life Magazine. Inside, Michio Kushi, founder of Macrobiotics in America, points the way toward a long-lasting solution to the problem of cancer. Also included are twelve moving personal stories of cancer victims who overcame illness through macrobiotics. More than thirty-five years ago, Michio Kushi began saying that diet was a principle cause of cancer. He pointed out that a diet based on whole grains, sea and land vegetables, beans, and seasonal fruits could prevent, and in many cases, help reverse the process of cancer. In this edition of The Macrobiotic Approach to Cancer, Mr. Kushi details the macrobiotic diet and lifestyle that has helped thousands of individuals recover from illness and find better health and peace of mind.

Since its original publication a quarter-century ago, The Cancer Prevention Diet has been one of the most popular guides to the prevention and relief of society's most feared disease. Drawing on the most up-to-date cancer research, Michio Kushi and Alex Jack present a dietary program that can be implemented safely and simply at home, at a fraction of the cost of usual meals and medical care. This completely revised and updated twentyfifth anniversary edition includes: • Broader dietary guidelines and new recipes • New research on the twenty most frequent types of cancer • New ways to combine macrobiotics with chemotherapy, radiation, and more • The latest statistics, studies, and treatments • The role of positive emotions in the healing process.

The Book of Macrobiotics is a passport to a world of infinite understanding and adventure. It has been read, reread, studied, and treasured by hundreds of thousands of people who seek a clear, comprehesive approach to the problem of living in a world of endless change. Now after two decades, The Book of Macrobiotics has been completely revised and expanded to reflect refinements in Michio Kushi's teachings, as well as many developments in the modern practice of macrobiotics. During this time, the standard macrobiotic diet has been simplified and broadened. Macrobiotic approaches to cancer, heart disease, and other degenerative disorders have evolved and expanded, as have basic home care and lifestyle recommendations. This revised edition of The Book of Macrobiotics also includes a new chapter on the Spiritual World; new material on Yin and Yang and the Five Transformations, Man/Woman Relations, and Humanity's Origin and Destiny; and an annotated East West Reading List. Many new illustrations have been furnished, and the Food Composition tables have been expanded to include nutritional information on dozens of additional foods, including tempeh, seitan, rice cakes, and amazake. Here, for a new generation, is a beautifully revised and updated version of a macrobiotic classic.

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.
