The Whole-Food Guide for Breast Cancer Survivors

By Dr. Kathleen T. Ruddy

Helayne Waldman and Edward Bauman have written an excellent nutritional guide for women who are interested in modifying their diets to reduce their risk for breast cancer.  The authors, experts in their fields, discuss a wide range of known and emerging risk factors for breast cancer and then outline ways women can use food to lower their risk for this disease.
The book is readable, concise, and contains very helpful information about how diet influences breast cancer risk and recurrence.  Breast cancer patients and women who just want to know more about how diet influences breast cancer risk will benefit from the clear advice these authors provide.
“The Whole-Food Guide for Breast Cancer Survivors” provides and excellent service for breast cancer patients, for it picks up where traditional medicine leaves off.  After the surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, reconstructive surgery, and targeted therapy are all prescribed and completed, it’s good to know that there’s more help at hand.  Here’s a book worthy reading, a program worth adopting.
Thank you, Helayne and Edward, for this important contribution to breast health and healing.
NOTE:  The book is published by New Harbinger Publications in Oakland, California, www.newharbinger.com
