Cancer in young people is rare, but it is still a major health issue in Europe. Each year, more than 6,000 young people in Europe die of cancer. There are more than 300,000 European childhood cancer survivors (in 2020, they will be nearly half a million): two-thirds of them have some late side effects of treatment, that are severe and impact on the daily life of half of those affected.

Cancer, once a relatively obscure disease, has now become a leading global cause of mortality. While conventional treatments like chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery are effective at reducing tumor burden, they often fall short in addressing the root causes of cancer. This is where this book steps in. Drawing on evidence-based guidelines, it offers a straightforward dietary and supplement program to complement your doctor’s care during cancer treatment.
This book serves as a vital resource, demonstrating how nutrition can play a pivotal role in enhancing immune functions, making chemotherapy and radiation more selective in targeting cancer cells while sparing healthy ones, reversing or preventing common malnutrition issues, depriving cancer of its sugar fuel, and utilizing nutrients as biological response modifiers to induce apoptosis, or cell suicide, in cancer cells.
To enhance understanding, the book incorporates an abundance of color images, simplifying complex concepts and enhancing readability. In the ebook version, hyperlinks provide an interactive experience, allowing readers to access original articles and websites with a simple click. Moreover, for readers with compromised vision, the book is presented in a larger font.
Each chapter concludes with a patient profile, offering inspiration and valuable insights. This book equips cancer patients with a practical roadmap to enhance both the quality and quantity of life while increasing the chances of achieving complete remission, all while collaborating closely with their medical professionals.
In addition to this valuable information, the book includes a one-week recipe section complete with color photographs. It combines science, nutrition, and real-life patient experiences to provide a comprehensive guide for those navigating the challenging terrain of cancer treatment. It’s not just a book; it’s a beacon of hope and empowerment on the journey toward improved health and well-being.
