Can some foods really help fight cancer? Do all cancer-fighting foods work the same way? What can I do to protect myself and my family?

The incidence of cancer in Australia has reached alarming proportions and it's easy to feel powerless in the face of the frightening statistics. However, the latest research is showing convincingly that particular foods may significantly reduce the risk of cancer in healthy individuals and slow its progress in those already suffering from the disease. By knowing what these cancer-fighting foods are, we can take positive steps in the fight against cancer.

Leading cancer authority Richard Beliveau teams up with Denis Gingras in Foods that Fight Cancer to describe the science of food and which properties of particular foods are the active cancer-fighting elements. They clearly explain how different foods work to protect the body against different cancers and show which foods will be most effective. By understanding the science behind these therapeutic benefits, we come to realise not only why it is so critical to add these foods to our diet, but how easily it can be done.
