Unraveling Cancer: Cancer Prevention Even After Diagnosis (HOPE: Health Outreach, Prevention, and Education)

Unraveling Cancer describes the forces that cause cancer development and provides a framework of how, in health, the body is able to eliminate cells with cancer causing mutations. It describes how lifestyle can interfere with the protective mechanisms, and how we can prevent the disease. Since the same forces that cause cancer also promote the growth of cancer and turn it into a more aggressive and metastatic disease, the things that cause cancer also make it more dangerous after the cancer has developed. Unraveling Cancer instructs not only how to prevent cancer, but to slow its advancement and make chemo and other treatments more effective. Additionally, this book tells how to prepare for chemo to make it more effective in killing cancer cells, less toxic and have fewer and less intense side effects. The book provides strategies for improving outcomes for cancer patients and provides hope for them and their loved ones by by giving them ways to begin taking back some control of their health.
