12 Keys to a Healthier Cancer Patient: Unlocking Your Body's Incredible Ability to Heal Itself While Working with Your Doctor

Book was in great condition, price was OK, shipping was fast.

I bought this book when it first came out, but because of my move I did not get around to reading it until recently. I beat cancer 8 years ago with the help of some of Dr Quillin's prior books. This one, however, seems far more encompassing in how to overcome cancer. Having done a wide array of alternative and integrative treatments, I was pleasantly surprised he mentions some of them in this book .... like PEMF therapy. As usual with his books, Dr Quilllin has richly supplied many informative charts and anecdotal stories which keeps the reader interested. There are some interesting recipes I will attempt to try. I was very glad I read as many books like this as I could between the time I suspected I had cancer and went to see a doctor, because a doctor may intimidate you into submitting to the standard protocol of slash, poison and burn. Mine did, and inferred I may die if I did not take chemo. However, because I educated myself I was able to stand up to the medical intimidation attempt to force me into chemo. Thankfully, us adults have to the right to refuse harmful medical treatments. The kicker of all this is that my son (a cancer doctor) was also attempting to intimidate me at the time into taking chemo. And now 8 years later, he tells me that studies have come out to prove that chemo would not have been effective with my type of cancer. More and more studies are also coming out about the value of nutrition in fighting cancer, and Dr Quillin is an expert on using nutrition to fight cancer. You can't go wrong learning as much as you can about fighting cancer with nutrition as well as other treatments in your battle with cancer. By the way, Dr Quillin is also an excellent speaker on nutrition and has been in many of The Truth About Cancer videos by Ty Bollinger.

Amazing information

As an orthopedic surgeon I was taught very little about nutrition in medical school. However, over the last 10 years I have developed an intense interest personally and have passed this on to my patients with great success. I have published in organic chemistry, biology, joint mechanics, joint arthroplasty, spinal biomechanics. With 11 years of education after high school I thought I knew a little bit about everything. But when it comes to the science of nutrition and plants, there are few as knowledgeable as Patrick Quillin. I have followed his work for years and ultimately had the privilege of meeting him in person. He is brilliant and I highly recommend this book for anyone who is interested in having a better understanding of nutrition and how it affects their body. Although this book is useful for patients dealing with cancer, it is also useful for anyone who is interested in leading a healthier lifestyle. For me, Patrick is a role model and true health care hero. Thank you Dr. Quillin for all you do in the name of science, education, and most importantly your desire to help others.

Another great blockbuster by Patrick Quillan, a must read for anyone suffering from cancer. A wonderful 12 step guide to getting well, covering all aspects of health from the spiritual to the physical, to day to day life, a must read! Having been in medicine for 30 years and seen thousands of patients this book brings out, in an easily read text with links to more information and great graphics, solutions for every day life to those suffering from cancer and those wanting to avoid the disease. Highly recommended!

Dr. Patrick Quillin is a master communicator and writer. Another book he wrote, Beating Cancer With Nutrition, was one of the first books I read during my own healing journey, and it helped me to understand the science of nutrition and why that is so important to healing cancer. This book includes testimonials and the ebook has links to make it easy to dig further into research. He is and incredible writer, and this is an excellent resource for anyone wanting to prevent or heal cancer.

As a practicing physician for the past decade I find this book an extremely useful resource to help support any patient , not just patients with cancer.There are wildly divergent ideas on healthcare and we know that modern medicine has limitations. This book employs the best of both worlds.I will be using this with my patients as an incredible reference book on rational healthcare and how to build the bodies host defenses.

A ton of information. It have me a lot to think about and to discuss with my oncologist. Cancer is tough and not everyone responds the same way. Staying healthy is also a mental need.

Needed a book to help me through cancer treatment. The while thing seemed overwhelming. It appeared that there was nothing I could do to make the doctor's therapy more effective. Then I got this book. Easy to read. Lots of colourful images. Also lots of practical advice that I could do at home without spending too much money. Using the tips in the book my doctor says I am far exceeding his expectations. He said, "whatever you are doing, keep doing it." Highly recommend this book to augment your doctors therapies for cancer.

This Dr is amazing. Patrick Quillin explains everything so well which makes it easy to read and digest even with chemobrain!!!A must read if you are looking into alternatives either alongside conventional treatment or you decide to go down the natural route. Would definitely recommend!!
