Read this a long time ago but really helped me understand what foods to incorporate and convinced me to change what I'm eating. I had loaned this book to a friend who actually was diagnosed with cancer. She's doing better but hasn't returned my book!

This book changed my life! It inspired me to eat even better than I was. The book was well laid out, easy to understand, and had sidebars with the info you were most interested in.
