PRAISE FOR THE FIRST EDITION:

“Cancer treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiation can be almost as hard on the body as the disease itself, and detailed nutrition advice is usually not on the program. This informative guide to fighting cancer from the inside out…corrects that with a wealth of easy, immediate steps to speed up the healing process through diet. …Katz’s experience with cancer patients and their long, often frustrating recovery lends authority to her wise, common-sense approach.”
