Thirty years later!
Thirty years ago, I worked at a local Health Food Store for five years. At that time, the owner's wife was diagnosed with cancer. My boss read everything he could find on natural and nutritional therapies for this condition. After discovering Dr. Kelley's book, "One Answer To Cancer", he arranged to fly out to meet with Dr. Kelley personally. They had a very inspiring visit, learned all they needed to know about the natural cancer treatments, enzymes, and diet, and came back home. They were both in their sixties at that time, and followed Dr. Kelley's dietary and supplement instructions in every detail for the first year, then went on the "maintenance" program afterwards. Although one of them recently had a slight stroke, and the other has suffered some age-related hearing & vision loss, they are still mentally alert and in good health today, still living independently in their own home, and are both approaching their 93rd birthdays this Spring of 2004. If anyone out there is doubting that Dr. Kelley's program really works, it is not a "racket" or a scam, it is a legitimate treatment option. Just ask my former employers, Blanche and Glenn! ...

Product Description
One in ten women will develop breast cancer, making it one of the most devastating health problems of our time. However, only a small percentage of women develop the disease as a result of genetic factors. The vast majority of cases - around 90 per cent - are the result of lifestyle factors that are under our control. This groundbreaking book is based on recent research findings, uncovered by specialists at Genesis, the only UK breast cancer charity to specialize in prevention, which show there is a clear connection between breast cancer and diet and exercise. The first part of this book helps readers understand the factors that can lead to the development of breast cancer, and examines in detail why maintaining a healthy weight or losing weight can reduce the risk of breast cancer by as much as 40 per cent. The second section concentrates on diet and features a wealth of delicious recipes, specially created by chef Roy Ackerman, to help you incorporate the diet into your life. ... Read more

Excellent Reference
This book is a collection of review articles written to explain current research (as of 1982) on diet and cancer.It begins with an executive summary, summarizing the research results and outlining the methodology used to write the book.Then there are several chapters explaining what cancer is and the methodology used to test whether there is evidence for dietary links to cancer.The remainder of the book is divided into 3 sections: the relationship between nutrients and cancer, in which there are separate chapters for each type of nutrient (calories, lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins, minerals, alcohol), the role of nonnutritive dietary constituents (food additives, naturally occurring carcinogens, mutagens, contaminants), and patterns of diet and cancer.End material includes a glossary and an index.Sources are cited at the end of each chapter.

The book is highly informative, highly readable, and it presents a no-nonsense summary of the facts.The authors, all physicians or scientists, draw exclusively on peer-reviewed scientific literature, and strive to present a balanced review of each topic.Where results of studies are inconsistent with those of other studies, they analyze what factors may have caused the differences, and whether the differences reflect uncertainty in scientific understanding or varied methodology.As these authors report, the research is clear on certain points: a diet high in calories is associated with increased cancer risk, as are diets high in fat or protein.Alcohol is a known carcinogen. Carbohydrates do not seem to be associated with either an increased or decreased cancer risk, while dietary fiber is known to lower cancer risk.Certain vitamins and minerals can also reduce cancer risk. When avoiding toxins, the consumer should keep in mind that cancer-causing chemicals are found not only in pesticide residues and additives, but can also be naturally occurring.Indeed, one of the most potent cancer-causing toxins found in the average diet is aflatoxin, a naturally occurring mycotoxin that can occur in carelessly processed peanut or corn products. ...
