<b>The revolutionary, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling guide to the powerful lifestyle changes that fight and prevent cancer--an integrative approach based on the latest scientific research</b><br> <b> </b><br> <b>"A common-sense blueprint for healthy living." --<i>Chicago Tribune</i></b><br> <b><i> </i></b><br> <b>"Resonating with cancer support communities and recommended nationwide." --<i>Los Angeles Times</i></b><br> <b> </b><br> <b>"Life affirming . . . filled with practical advice." --<i>The Seattle Times</i></b> <p/> David Servan-Schreiber was a rising neuroscientist with his own brain imaging laboratory when, in the middle of an equipment test, he discovered a tumor the size of a walnut in his own brain. Forced to confront what medicine knows about cancer, and all that we still do not know, Servan-Schreiber marshaled his will to live and set out to understand the complex inner workings of the body's natural cancer-fighting capabilities. He soon found himself on a decades-long journey from disease and relapse into scientific exploration and, finally, a new view of health. <p/> <i>Anticancer </i>is at once the moving story of one doctor's inner and outer search for wellness and a radical exposition of the roles that lifestyle, environment, and trauma play in our health. Drawing on the latest research in integrative medicine that blends conventional and alternative approaches, Servan-Schreiber concisely explains what makes cancer cells thrive, what inhibits them, and how we can empower ourselves to prevent their growth. His advice details how to develop a science-based anticancer diet (and the small changes that can make a big difference); how to reap the benefits of exercise, yoga, and meditation; which toxic, unsafe products to replace in your home; and how to stave off the effects of helplessness and unhealed wounds to regain balance. <p/> <i>Anticancer</i>'s synthesis of science and personal experience marks a transformation in the way we understand and confront cancer. A long-running bestseller that has changed the lives of millions around the world, <i>Anticancer </i>remains a pioneering and peerless resource, an inspirational and revolutionary guide to "a new way of life."
