Beating Cancer with Nutrition (Fourth Edition) Rev

I am a 48 year old former engineer who knew little about cancer when my wife was diagnosed with RCC in 2008. Like others we followed the docs instructions and rushed into surgery. Had I known then what I know now, we probably would have avoided the nephrectomy. Two months after surgery the cancer had metastasized to the lung and within three months it was in the liver and lymph nodes. Our experience with conventional treatment was a horrifying journey. My wife took a drug for just four days and I thought I was watching her die before me. That's when I began trying to find a way to save her. 'Beating cancer with nutrition' was an invaluable tool in our future. It is packed with valuable insight into the cancer epidemic and the industry that it developed as well as the importance of lifestyle choices that allowed cancer cells to overpower your immune system. The book is designed to educate the reader on optimal nutrition to improve the outcome in medically treated cancer patients. Patrick Quillin presents a mountain of useful information and recipes to boost the immune system and strengthen the body with diet. It's a very valuable resource and a good read, I can't emphasize this enough. I used what I learned from this book to further my research into natural therapy and combined what I had learned from the book as adjuvant therapy with natural supplementation for my wife. Between May 2009 and March 2010, my wifes tumor growth was reversed and she is now cancer free without suffering the horrible side effects of synthetic drug treatments or any permanent cellular damage. Our experience taught us so much that I have a book in publishing now called 'Cancer shouldn't kill you just make you smarter' and hope to have it at Amazon.com soon. I thank Patrick Quillin whole-heartedly for his book, it was the first step in my wifes cancer making me smarter, being able to reverse RCC and changing our lifestyle to prevent its reoccurance. If you yourself or someone you love has been diagnosed with cancer, you MUST get this book.

Thank you for writing this book - although it is more technical, which does the more medical readers a more interesting insight as well. However, the book provided plenty of information in layman terms that you would not feel that you have missed out on any information. From our experience, we have seen how nutrition has supported RT, Chemo; but we were not as brave not to apply these treatments; we are using RT to 'debulk' the C cells and allow the nutrition to support the body to clean up the rest of the C cells that modern technology can not even detect. The book is a wealth of information that is so useful for both the patient and the rest of the family! we realized we could be that close to getting C if we dont change our diet drastically, and we have a pretty healthy diet, so I thought. The book gave us a lot of hope in fighting this C, whereas the doctors have applied a very negative view since we all have learnt there is a huge limitation of what chemo and RT can actually do on its own. We have taken the power back from the doctors and it feels good that we can now take charge by making sure the patient is being feed the food that the body needs. So far so good, even though we have been given the stage IV diagnosis, the doctors have not been able to explain why the tumors have shrunk (this was before treatment and just by changing the diet completely for three weeks before treatment could start)!!! Every body is different, but we know diet is making a huge difference. it is must read book to allow you to have the power back and take away the feeling that the floor has been taken away from your feet. Choose a doctor that supports your nutrition - it is critical.

I have had this book for over 5 yrs. This book should be read by EVERYONE. It contains information VITAL to persons who may be ill with Cancer and will certainly help them in their journey to recovery. For those who are not ill it is a great boon to their metabolism and to their overall health by avoiding the 'wrong' foods and eating those foods which only help our bodies. For those who are CAREGIVERS this is a MUST-READ. You CAN BEAT Cancer...I am proof, this great book, alternative treatments and putting GOD first will certainly bring healing to those afflicted. There is another book I would buy in connection with this book and that is a small book by Dodie Osteen, the mother of Pastor Joel Osteen, who's book..."Healed of Cancer" is a must read and I read it daily while undergoing chemo treatment and it certainly gave me a whole new outlook on life and faith. I have purchased BOTH books and given them out free to others so afflicted in the hopes that they have a full recovery such as I did. To God be the Glory!!

A must have for anyone with cancer and their families. Very comprehensive, expert information from a very experienced nutritionalist. In the first pages, Patrick Quillin writes about other factors aside from nutrition that could have contributed towards cancer and consequently how the patient can help themselves. Having read over 25 books on complimentary help for cancer, this one was one of the best and in no way quacky like some that I came across. There seems to be precious little knowledge, training and hence advice about diet and nutrition by docotrs and even oncologists, so this book was invaluable. This book gives some power back to the individual and their families.

While this book has some good advice, it's the same advice one can find in many cancer books. This one seems like mostly advertising for the author's products!

I found this to be a very informative book for both those dealing with cancer themselves, as well as others in the roles of care-takers for them. Even for others, like myself, who simply greatly wish to share/spread the knowledge & wisdom of Dr.Quillin's that he's incorporated herein! This gentleman knows his area of expertise, & I personally have had the privelage of going with a friend who had cancer, to one of Cancer Treatment Centers of America,where we stayed for 2 weeks while she received treatments, & we ate deliciously at every meal in their hospital/facility's cafeteria, under Dr.Quillin's Directorship! I say with all of my heart's belief & conviction.....if I were ever to get a cancer diagnosis myself, I'm going to Cancer Treatment centers of America ( there are numbers of them located in different areas of the nation) The particular one I went with my friend to was located in Zion, Illinois. And it truly was an experience I'll never forget & be forever grateful for! Since this time I've had 2 more precious individuals of family & friends, receiving their cancer diagnosis' & HAVE SEEN TO THEIR RECEIVING THIS BOOK INTO THEIR HANDS! I ATTEST TO & BELIEVE IN THAT cancer (small letters used on purpose!) does not automatically have to mean a death sentence?! This book can be indeed used as one of God's Tools wherein the wisdom given Dr.Quillin' is laid out/shared for others finding themselves in need of it!! I hope anyone reading my review will be encouraged in getting this LIFE GIVING BOOK for anyone they love/know who has cancer, or like myself for themselves, if they're wanting to be supporters/encourages of putting Dr.Quillin's tenants/procedures into practice & building better health! :-))

i bought many books on this subject but THIS is the book has saved my life, I recomend it 1000%.

Its really good, a must read for people who want to know about cancer killing nutrition. Its very detailed.
