Review: lots of knowledge - I ordered this after taking it out at our local library. My husband was diagnosed this summer with bone marrow cancer and I got so many questions answered. Sometimes the medical field talked over our heads but this book is great as it puts things in lay persons terms and is easier to understand. Great purchase. Review: Cancer Nutrition and Recipes for Dummies is a Terrific Book ! - Cancer Nutrition and Recipes For Dummies is an exceptionally clear, well-organized book. The recipes look great and delicious. I will spend lots of time trying out them. There are many useful tips on managing health, choosing medical people and explaining all aspects of various medical treatments. I bought one book for myself and another for a friend who has stage four cancer. Your book will help brighten her life. Thank you for your comprehensive book.

I ordered this after taking it out at our local library. My husband was diagnosed this summer with bone marrow cancer and I got so many questions answered. Sometimes the medical field talked over our heads but this book is great as it puts things in lay persons terms and is easier to understand. Great purchase.

Very very informative.
This book is incredibly informative. My mom was just diagnosed with stage iv lung cancer, and I was looking for something to help her on her journey. This book is not just about recipes, it's a step by step guide to cancer from the different doctors you'll be working with to what each stage really means. I thought it was so great, that in addition to the kindle version that I purchased for myself, I also bought a hard copy for my mom.

Simple & straightforward
As a physician, I needed a simple primer on basic nutrition to give a family member with cancer and this book was helpful. One author was a physician & the other author was a registered dietitian which lends a degree of credibility since there are so many vegan leaning dietary books that could even be harmful.

Excellent!
I'm on chemo, and always looking for nutrition help. This is the best book I have found on the subject!! It isn't just recipes, the book is overall an excellent source of info for anyone on or facing chemo treatment, I think Oncologists should recommend this to their patients! You should buy this one!
