Foreward by the authors: 

"The goal of this book is to present a summary of the scientific studies currently available.  These studies strongly suggest that certain types of cancer can be prevented by modifying our dietary habits to include foods with the power to fight tumors at the source, and thus prevent their growth.  Nature supplies us with an abundance of foods rich in molecules with very powerful anticancer properties, capable of engaging with the disease without causing any harmful side effects.  In many respects, these foods possess therapeutic properties on a part with those of synthetic drugs;  we propose calling them "nutraceuticals" to better illustrate these properties.  We have the possibility of deploying a veitable arsenal of anti-cancer compounds occurring naturally in many foods as a complement to the therapies now in use.  We can seize this occasion to change the probabilities in our favor, since a diet based on a regular intake of nutraceuticals may indeed prevent the appearance of many types of cancer."

Synopsis

Detailing the key foods that have been medically shown to be beneficial in both preventing and fighting cancer, this is the must-have resource for anyone looking to get healthy and stay that way.
