9 Cancer Books All Patients Should Read Now

In this blog post, I'm revealing my favorite cancer books that cancer patients should read. These cover various cancer topics. Most of them talk about diet and how to improve your health. Other books cover the corruption of the cancer industry or the history of cancer.

Together they give you a broad view of cancer. The goal of reading these books is to empower you to learn more about cancer. When you understand the truth about cancer, you will lose your fear.

You will feel empowered and will not let doctors manipulate you anymore. The first book I recommend is from Andreas Moritz. He has one controversial view of cancer that most will see as shocking.

1. Cancer Is Not a Disease. It's a Survival Mechanism by Andreas Moritz 

The first cancer book you should read if you have cancer is Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism by Andreas Moritz.

Andreas Moritz was a medical intuitive and a practitioner of Ayurveda. He also did iridology, shiatsu, and vibrational medicine. Andreas was most famous as a writer. 

He was born in southwest Germany in 1954. Moritz dedicated his life's work to understanding and treating illnesses. He had great success with cases of terminal diseases. Due to his health problems in his youth, he learned the root cause of diseases.

Moritz boldly claims that cancer is a regular detox program in this fascinating book. Most people believe cancer cells are rogue evil cells that want to kill the body.

Some support groups, such as Cancer Sucks, tell everyone that cancer is a horrible disease. It kills children and adults alike and is brutal in its conquest.

Andrea has a whole different description of cancer. He doesn't see cancer as evil cells that want to kill the body. Instead, Andreas describes cancer cells as part of a toxicity crisis.

Cancer cells exist to absorb toxins and protect normal cells. He says the body keeps cancer cells alive until the toxicity crisis is over.  

Andreas' description of cancer is the best I have found. Andreas says that cancer is not caused by our genes but rather by our lifestyle. 

Millions of people with defective genes never get cancer. Andreas says you can remove the nucleus of a cancer cell, and it will still live. A healthy cell lives for weeks, even if the genes are absent. 

Andreas Moritz also describes Big Pharma and its toxic cancer treatments. Treatments like chemotherapy don't solve the underlying cause of cancer. According to him, removing obstructions is a better way to reverse cancer. 

Andreas then explains cancer's physical causes. One is our consumption of animal products and processed foods. 

Lymphatic congestion is also typical in cancer patients, according to Andreas. The lymphatic system keeps the body free of harmful waste products and toxins. 

Chronic lymph congestion starts after long-term difficulty with digesting food. Undigested foods become a breeding place for carcinogens, says Andreas. 

He also mentions that the liver controls the growth and functioning of every cell in the body. Poor liver performance leads to malfunction, deficiency, or abnormal cell growth. Gallstones in the liver and gallbladder make detox harder for the body.

Moritz also says that medications are some of the most direct and indirect causes of cancer. Andreas believes that emotional trauma is behind cancer.

Whatever happens in our emotional body also occurs in our physical body. The real cancer is a trapped and isolated emotion, a feeling of "having no choice."

Repressed feelings of wanting and deserving harmony, peace, and stability translate into biochemical responses. Constant emotional strain leads to gallstone formation and digestive issues. Cancer patients have a history of suppressed anger from their childhood. 

Andreas later explains several things we can do to prevent cancer. He was a fan of eating a vegan/vegetarian diet, emotional healing, sunshine, and good sleep.

He also recommends the Liver and Gallbladder Cleanse, which you can read in another book. Or you can download our free guide to learn more. Andreas also lists other natural cancer treatments you can use to reverse cancer.

Bill Henderson has another compelling cancer book. He reveals many excellent therapies you can try.

2. Cancer-Free: Your Guide to Gentle, Non-Toxic Healing by Bill Henderson

Another great book cancer patients should read is Cancer-Free: Your Guide to Gentle, Non-Toxic Healing by Bill Henderson.

Bill Henderson helped thousands of cancer patients heal with natural cancer remedies. In November 1990, Bill's late wife, Marjorie, had stage IV cancer. She died on November 1, 1994. Her many operations, chemotherapy treatments, and intense pain made her want to die. 

After Bill's wife died, he realized that millions of people had to endure that same torture each year. He read since 1994, looking for options everyone ignored. 

He began doing workshops, telephone coaching, and a weekly radio show. Bill tried to reach as many people as possible with this life-saving message.

He spent every day talking by e-mail and telephone with caner patients. Bill helped thousands of people heal their conditions. He then put what he learned about cancer in this book.

Bill begins his book by telling the reader that once you understand the cause of cancer, you can reverse it. He also criticizes how doctors treat cancer and says we don't need them if we read at least 20 hours about cancer.

Bill reveals that conventional medicine only treats diseases with synthetic drugs and procedures. The goal is not to heal patients by finding the root cause. That's why doctors never ask you about your lifestyle. 

Bill says successful cancer patients heal their cancer because of four things. It's part of the four "A:s." 

A positive attitude means that you believe with all your heart and soul that you will get well. Bill says survivors take charge of their health care and commit 100% to it. 

Bill also mentions that survivors need to find an advocate in their healing journey. This person can be your closest friend or relative.  

Your advocate needs to go with you to every doctor's appointment. They must commit to your recovery and have a good sense of humor. 

The third step to surviving cancer is finding a doctor supporting natural health. He will guide you in your healing journey.

The final step that successful cancer patients follow is taking action. You need to change your diet or do what's required to reverse your cancer.

Bill then talks about the corrupt medical industry. These companies earn a handsome profit by exploiting cancer patients. Drug companies also control the watchdog FDA, according to Bill. 

Bill says that most cancers arise from our interaction with the world around us. Tobacco use and poor food choices increase your cancer risk. Alcohol, asbestos, formaldehyde, and other environmental toxins can also lead to cancer.

Bill mentions that emotional trauma or dental procedures can be another cancer source. He also says that lifestyle choices lead to cancer, not your genes. 

Bill then criticizes chemo, radiotherapy, and surgery. He then recommends various natural remedies you can use against cancer. Most of the treatments have to do with your diet and supplements.

Bill believes you should avoid white sugar, processed food, dairy, and gluten. He recommends a primarily plant-based diet. Bill also gives the reader many options for treating cancer with natural remedies.

Chris Wark is a stage III colon cancer survivor that wrote a book about cancer. He reveals the strategies he used to reverse his condition.

3. Chris Beat Cancer: A Comprehensive Plan for Healing Naturally

The third book on this list is Chris Beat Cancer: A Comprehensive Plan for Healing Naturally by Chris Wark. 

Chris Wark is an author, speaker, patient advocate, and wellness crusader. He had stage III colon cancer in 2003 when he was 26 years old. 

Chris had surgery but refused chemotherapy. He used nutrition and natural therapies to heal himself. Chris made many appearances on the radio and television. You can visit him online at www.chrisbeatcancer.com.

Chris explains his cancer journey and what he learned. In the beginning, he planned to treat his colon cancer with chemo. But he felt uneasy when he was about to get his treatment.

Chris decided to skip chemo and take the natural route. He explained his journey as going through the jungle. One path is the orthodox way with chemo, radiation, and surgery. 

You can see the path, and everyone makes it easy to follow. Then there is the path through the jungle. This road is the natural route. You don't know what's on the other side, and you have to find the trail and don't know if you will make it. 

Chris explained that he lived a hectic life and had a terrible diet with lots of meat and fast food. When he refused chemo, he tried to find a way to treat cancer and decided to follow a raw plant-based diet. 

Chris further explains that our lifestyle causes cancer. Our diet, full of animal products, processed foods, and GMOs, makes us sick.

Chris also talks about the medical industry and how doctors are the third leading cause of death in the U.S. Doctors often use fear to motivate patients to take immediate action. 

Chris also talks about how cancer treatments are toxic and don't bring any good benefits to the patient. He exposes how the industry makes a killing by giving patients ineffective therapies.

Later in the book, Chris talks about the Beat Cancer Mindset. The Beat Cancer Mindset has five components:

One of Chris's main talking points in reversing cancer is by eating a plant-based diet. He mentions several effective plants against cancer and how you can use your diet to stop it. 

Chris also tells you how to avoid toxins in your food by checking the labels. He says that you need to avoid animal products and dairy. But Chris also mentions that you should get rid of toxic cleaning products.

Chris says in the book that being inactive is terrible for you and that more people need to exercise. He also gives you general health tips such as getting enough sunshine, sleep, and drinking clean water. 

I like that Chris mentions the importance of emotional and spiritual healing. He describes how stress and trauma cancer lead to cancer.

The fourth book on this list is by Dr. Antonio Jimenez. He reveals the seven principles he uses to reverse cancer in his clinic.

4. Hope for Cancer: 7 Principles to Remove Fear and Empower Your Healing Journey
by Antonio Jimenez

The fourth book I recommended is Hope for Cancer: 7 Principles to Remove Fear and Empower Your Healing Journey by Antonio Jimenez.

Antonio Jimenez, M.D., is the Founder and Chief Medical Officer of Hope4Cancer. The organization has several treatment centers. Hope4Cancer's Tijuana treatment center is a certified inpatient hospital. The Cancun treatment center serves outpatients in a premier medical tourist destination.

For over 25 years, Dr. Jimenez dedicated his life to natural cancer treatments. Today, he is one of the most trusted voices in integrative cancer therapy. 

Dr. Jimenez developed and coined the 7 Key Principles of Cancer Therapy. It's a revolutionary framework for healing cancer. Dr. Jimenez has a lot of experience treating cancer patients from his clinics in Mexico.

His book contains excellent information on reversing cancer with his seven key principles. Dr. Jimenez begins by explaining what cancer is and its causes. 

According to him, emotional trauma can be the main culprit behind cancer. He mentions that inflammation or a compromised immune system is another reason.

Toxins from the food and environment can also cause cancer. Deficiencies, too many free radicals, hypoxia, and other conditions are other culprits. Dr. Jimenez also explains good and safe cancer diagnostics tests you should use.

After that, he explains his seven fundamental principles for healing cancer. The first one is to use non-toxic cancer therapies. Some of the core therapies that Dr. Jimenez uses are:

He also discusses other cancer treatments, such as Near Infrared Sauna Therapy. The second principle is immunomodulation. This module is about improving your immune system to better deal with cancer. Antonio further explains how to improve your immune system. 

The third principle is to eat nutrition based on the Garden of Eden. Dr. Jimenez explains how our earlier ancestors thrived on a nutritious plant-based diet. It was full of vegetables and fruits. But now we eat more toxic foods. 

Dr. Jimenez says that meat is less helpful than vegetables. He recommends eating plants and fruits. Some anti-cancer plants are cruciferous vegetables, allium vegetables, flaxseeds, fruits, nuts, and seeds. 

Dr. Jimenez further tells the reader that you should eat the food God created, not humans. He also recommends supplements.

The fourth principle is to detox. Dr. Jimenez recommends:

The fifth principle is oxygenation. Dr. Jimenez explains that cancer thrives in low-oxygen environments. Cancer cells become weaker by improving the oxygen rate in the body. He recommends Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy(HBOT). Exercise, Qigong, and Yoga can also increase your oxygen rate.

The sixth principle is restoring the microbiome. Dr. Jimenez believes that pathogens can cause cancer. This point is one of the things I disagree with him about. After the COVID-19 pandemic, I discovered germs don't cause diseases. There is no proof that viruses or bacteria can make you sick. 

If bacteria are present, it's evidence that the body is toxic and needs to use them to better deal with the situation. But that doesn't mean that they are behind the condition. I still agree with Dr. Jimenez that you should improve your immune system.  

Emotional healing is the seventh and final step in Dr. Jimenez's cancer formula. He explains how emotional trauma can cause cancer. Dr. Jimenez says healing our emotional and spiritual wounds is vital.

He is Christian, so his faith shines throughout the book. If you're Christian, then this book can be perfect for you. If you're not Christian, this book is still valuable as it contains a lot of great advice.

The next book on this list is a little different from the others. The author Siddhartha Mukherjee reveals the fascinating history of cancer. One big revelation from this book destroys the gene theory of cancer.

5. The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer by Siddhartha Mukherjee

The Fifth book on this list is The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer by Siddhartha Mukherjee. Siddhartha Mukherjee is a Pulitzer Prize winner. Mukherjee is an assistant professor of medicine at Columbia University. He is also a cancer physician and researcher.

In this book, Mukherjee writes about the history of cancer. He goes back thousands of years to look for evidence of cancer. Siddhartha begins with Edwin Smith.

Edwin Smith was an American dealer and collector of antiquities. In 1862 he bought a 15-foot-long papyrus from an antique seller in Luxor, Egypt. 

The papyrus had yellow pages filled with Egyptian script. Someone wrote this document in the 17th century B.C. The papyrus was a transcription of a manuscript dating back to 2500 BC. 

Siddhartha says that some historians believe the papyrus contained the teachings of Imhotep. He was a great Egyptian physician who lived around 2625 BC. Imhotep wrote about broken bones and dislocated vertebrae and other conditions. 

This document contains our earliest mention of cancer. Imhotep described one patient having swelling masses on the breast. Siddhartha then says that more than 2000 years passed before we heard about cancer again.

In around 440 BC, the Greek historian Herodotus wrote the story of Atossa. She was the queen of Persia who had an unusual illness. Atossa was the daughter of Cyrus and the wife of Darius. 

Darius was an emperor who ruled over a vast stretch of land from Lydia to Babylonia on the Persian Gulf. Atossa noticed a bleeding lump in her breast. Darius' doctors tried to treat her but to no avail. Democedes, a Greek slave, convinced her to operate on her tumor. 

Siddhartha tells about Arthur Aufderheide and how he discovered one large gravesite. Aufderheide performed 140 autopsies over several weeks. He found one mummy with a hard mass in the left upper arm.

The author talks about other mummies with cancer and how cancer got its name. After that, Siddhartha explains the history of our common cancer treatments.

I recommend this book because it reveals a fact few people mention. Throughout ancient history, there were almost no cases of cancer. It's only in our modern industrialized world that cancer has become an issue. 

Many scientists blame our genes for cancer. But by reading this book, this theory is put on its head. If our genes were the cause of cancer, we wouldn't have cancer today because it was absent in our ancestors.

This fact can only mean that cancer has become a problem because of our lifestyle and not our genes. The Emperor Of All Maladies is over 500 pages long. 

Only a fraction of that talked about cancer in ancient times. Most of the pages focus on the 20th century. This revelation is further evidence that cancer is a modern disease. It's not a plague that has tortured humans since ancient times.

The next book on this list is by G. Edward Griffin. He talks about a vitamin that can stop cancer in its track. Griffin also does a deep dive into the creation of western medicine.

6. A World Without Cancer by G. Edward Griffin

The sixth book I recommend is A World Without Cancer by G. Edward Griffin. G. Edward Griffin is a writer and documentary film producer.

He researches complex topics and presents them so that anyone can understand them. Griffin dealt with diverse subjects such as the Federal Reserve, archaeology, and ancient history. 

He says that cancer is a deficiency disease. It occurs because of a lack of essential nutrients in modern man's diet. One such substance is vitamin B17, laetrile, or amygdalin.

Griffin believes that amygdalin is a potent cancer killer. Biochemist Dr. Ernst T. Krebs Jr. is the man who first identified it. He also called it B17. Another name is laetrile or laevo-mandelonitrile B-glucoside. Laetrile is a partly synthetic form of the natural substance amygdalin.

Each molecule of amygdalin or laetrile contains two units of sugar. One has benzaldehyde, and the other one has cyanide. They are then all bound together. 

According to Griffin, the health benefits of vitamin B17 are not a recent discovery. It is a traditional remedy used by ancient Egyptians, Chinese, and Pueblo tribes.

The Hunzakuts of Northern Pakistan often lived to be over 100 years old. In 1922 British surgeon Dr. Robert McCarrison reported that they had never had a case of cancer. The Hunza ate copious amounts of apricot kernels. 

Laetrile was a cancer treatment in Russia back in the mid-1800s. It then spread to the United States in the 1920s. By 1970, 70 000 people in the U.S. used laetrile. 

Vitamin B17, or amygdalin, exists in the seeds of plants of the prunasin family. You can find B17 in more than 1200 foods, 

Laetrile, the extract form of vitamin B17, can help prevent cancer. It may do this in two ways. The first one revolves around enzymes. Amygdalin consists of glucose and toxic substances such as benzaldehyde and hydrogen cyanide. 

Healthy cells contain the enzyme rhodanese. Rhodanese protects the cells by neutralizing the benzaldehyde and cyanide in amygdalin. Cancer cells do not have rhodanese. Instead, they have an enzyme called beta-glucosidase. 

Beta-glucosidase unlocks the benzaldehyde and cyanide from the glucose. The result is a targeted poison that kills the cancer cell. Another way laetrile may kill cancer cells is through a healthy immune system. 

In the book's first part, Griffin explains the discovery of laetrile or B17. He clarifies how economic interests have tried to suppress this treatment. 

Between 1972 and 1977, Sloan-Kettering tested laetrile. Dr. Kanematsu Sugiura led the research. He had over 60 years of experience as a scientist. Dr. Sugiura earned the highest respect for his knowledge and integrity. 

Griffin says that Sugiura showed that laetrile could stop the spread of cancer. But despite that, Sloan-Kettering made sure to suppress all this information.

In the other half of the book, Griffin explains the politics of the cancer industry. He uncovered how John D Rockefeller and others created western medicine. They replaced natural medicine with allopathic medicine. You will learn the shocking history of the suppression of a cancer cure. 

The following book is about the corrupt medical industry. Peter Gøtzsche reveals the shocking corruption going on in western medicine. You will never trust doctors or drug companies again after reading this book.

7. Deadly Medicines and Organised Crime How Big Pharma Has Corrupted Healthcare by Peter Gøtzsche

The seventh book on this list is Deadly Medicines and Organized Crime - How Big Pharma Has Corrupted Healthcare by Peter Gøtzsche.

Professor Peter C Gøtzsche graduated with a Master of Science in biology and chemistry in 1974. He is a specialist in internal medicine. Gøtzsche worked with clinical trials in the drug industry between 1975–1983. 

He co-founded The Cochrane Collaboration in 1993. Gøtzsche became a professor of Clinical Research Design and Analysis in 2010. Peter Gøtzsche has an interest in statistics and research methods. 

This book exposes the criminal pharmaceutical cartel that runs the world. You must know about the corruption in our medical industry if you want to heal cancer. 

You won't be as scared to try the alternative route when you see how ineffective medical treatments are. Most of us are afraid to go against the tide when we have a cancer diagnosis. Your doctor pressures you to do surgery, radiation, or chemo. 

But when you see the evil in western medicine, you will think twice before trying treatments. Gøtzsche's book about the corrupt medical industry is one of the best I've read.

He once worked for the industry and thus knew many of their tricks. Gøtzsche began as a salesman for a drug company and sold drugs using questionable methods. 

After only eight months as a salesman, he left and became a product manager. He was responsible for written materials and sales campaigns with the sales manager. Therefore Gøtzsche has a lot of insight into the industry.

Gøtzsche told about one example where he sold an asthma drug against, terbutaline (Bricanyl). In one of the campaigns, he tried to convince the doctors that they needed to use the pill. 

Gøtzsche discovered the unethical marketing going on in the industry. He also found out how ineffective drugs were. Drug companies say they have high standards before allowing drugs onto the market. But that is a lie, according to Gøtzsche. He states that drug companies can manipulate clinical trials to their benefit. 

Gøtzsche claims in the book that drugs always cause harm. He goes through several examples where drugs cause severe injuries and death.  

He also does an excellent expose of dishonest psychotherapy. Big Pharma fooled everyone that a chemical brain imbalance caused emotional problems. Gøtzsche reveals the dangers of psychotropic drugs and how they make people depressed.

The next book on this list is by Dr. John McDougall. He created a diet plan that is controversial by western standards. McDougall believes that eating a low-fat starch-based diet can reverse diseases.

He has successfully made thousands of people lose weight. His diet is also excellent at fighting cancer.

8. The Starch Solution: Eat the Foods You Love, Regain Your Health, and Lose the Weight for Good! by John A. McDougall and Mary McDougall

Another great book cancer patients should read is The Starch Solution: Eat the Foods You Love, Regain Your Health, and Lose the Weight for Good! by John A. McDougall and Mary McDougall.

John McDougall is a physician, speaker, and best-selling author. He teaches the importance of a whole food, starch-based diet. John uses it to reverse and heal chronic diseases. 

Dr. McDougall is co-founder of the McDougall Program alongside his wife, Mary. The McDougall Program is a medical program that helps patients heal through lifestyle choices. One such strategy is a starch-based diet. 

The McDougall Program has helped thousands of people get off medications. He also reversed severe health problems such as diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.

The McDougall Program centers on a diet of 90% starchy plant foods such as potatoes, beans, corn, and rice. 

John McDougall explains his journey as a doctor at the beginning of the book. He took a job as a doctor in Hawaii. John worked as a general doctor for three years. He caught babies, pronounced people dead, did brain surgery, and more. 

McDougall thought he was a lousy doctor when he couldn't heal peoples' conditions. He soon discovered that his fellow doctor didn't have any better results.

John took care of these 5000 sugar plantation patients. He gave them the best pills he could find and sent them off to the best surgeons in Honolulu. But they wouldn't get well.

They stayed fat and sick. John thought it was because he was a horrible doctor. He realized his limitations as a physician during those three years. John took care of Filipinos, Japanese, Chinese, and Koreans. 

The older generation learned how to eat from their native countries. They took their original diet and continued to eat rice and vegetables. 

John discovered that the earlier generations were trim and healthy. They didn't have any arthritis, diabetes, or heart disease. And then John watched as the second generation ate the western diet. They got fatter and sicker when they ditched starch. 

After that, John explained how he spent the next two years studying in the scientific library. It was here that he learned about nutrition. That research was the foundation of his unique dietary approach. 

I love how clearly McDougall explains how animal products make us sick and why we should avoid them. His description of how vegetables and fruits can prevent disease is eye-opening.

The best thing about his book is when he says that you should focus on starchy vegetables. Some examples are rice, beans, lentils, and potatoes. 

Many doctors and health experts shun starchy vegetables. They say they are unhealthy foods with no nutrition. But McDougall argues that starch should become the center of our diet. 

The biggest mistake new vegans make is not eating enough calories. They don't know that vegetables and fruits contain fewer calories than meat.

According to John, eating only vegetables and fruits are not enough to sustain you. Starchy vegetables are a simple solution to this dilemma. They contain complex carbohydrates that nourish you during the day.

I like that John McDougall tells the reader not to starve or avoid comfort foods. You can enjoy your food and still lose weight. That is a far cry from what the weight loss industry teaches us.

They tell us to starve and exercise to death to lose weight. But that is unnecessary if you eat the right foods.

McDougall argues that the fat we eat is the fat we wear. He says that too much fat in our food makes us obese and sick. John tells the reader to avoid fatty foods such as animal products, oils, nuts, or avocados.

John's diet is excellent for treating cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. He made thousands of people lose weight with his diet and improved their lives. 

In the last part of the book, John tells the reader how to start eating this diet. Together with his wife, Mary, he gives you simple plant-based recipes. These can help you lose weight and improve your health. I have seen significant improvements since I followed his diet and others too.

The final book on this list is Radical Remission by Kelly A. Turner. She talked to countless cancer survivors and asked what they did to heal. Her book reveals nine strategies that these patients did to experience radical remission.

9. Radical Remission: Surviving Cancer Against All Odds by Kelly A. Turner, Ph.D.

The ninth book on this list is Radical Remission by Kelly A. Turner. Kelly worked as a cancer counselor at a cancer research hospital in San Francisco. She read Dr. Andrew Weil's book Spontaneous Healing. Then she came across a case of what she calls Radical Remission.

It is a patient that survives at all odds by using natural remedies. Kelly began trying to find other cases of Radical Remission. What she saw shocked her. There were over a thousand cases in medical journals. The more she dug into this topic, the more frustrated she became.

It turned out that no one investigated these cases. They didn't even make any attempt to track them. Kelly decided to study what survivors did to reverse their conditions.

What shocked Kelly was that survivors' doctors had no interest in their healing story. As Kelly talked to cancer survivors, she discovered nine things they did to survive.

The first one is changing one's diet. Survivors reduced or eliminated sugar, meat, dairy, and refined foods. They also increased their intake of vegetables and fruits. Most of them focused on eating organic foods and drinking filtered water.

The second survival tactic is taking control of your health. That means taking an active role in your health. You have to be willing to change your life and deal with resistance.

Number three is following your intuition. You must check in with your intuition before making any healing plan. Some people's intuition comes to them through an internal voice of deep knowing.

It can also come as a physical feeling in their bodies. Their intuition can speak to them in their dreams, meditations, journals, or coincidences.

The fourth survival tactic is using herbs and supplements. Survivors used various kinds of herbs to help their healing. They wanted to help the body rather than destroy it with toxic chemicals.

Number five on the survival list is releasing suppressed emotions. Survivors released suppressed emotions, stress, and fear. These things harm our health, become toxic, and lead to cancer.

The sixth thing Kelly mentions is increasing positive emotions. The survivors find ways to increase the amount of love, joy, and happiness in the present. Kelly explains what positive emotions are and how they affect our immune systems. She then discusses two aspects of increasing positive emotions.

Step seven in the healing journey is to embrace social support. The support of others is more vital when we are sick. When we are ill, loved ones will be there to care for us. This chapter explores the importance of social support in depth.

The eighth step of this book is deepening your spiritual connection. This chapter discusses physical healing due to one's connection to deeper or higher energy.

The last step of this book is to have reasons to live. Radical survivors have a reason to live. But it is also about not being afraid of dying. Fear of death can worsen your health and lead to irrational decisions. To survive, you need to have some higher purpose. Otherwise, you will give up.

Kelly explains each step well. It is what I discovered myself when I researched cancer. I like that Kelly believes that most of the healing is emotional.

Only two of the nine steps are physical. The emotional aspect of recovery is what many alternative cancer sites miss. I focus more on emotional healing on Cancer Wisdom than other homepages.

Physical therapies will be less effective if you don't heal your emotional wounds. Kelly wrote an excellent book. I recommend it to cancer patients or those who want to prevent cancer.

This book gives the reader hope. You learn that cancer is part of an imbalanced lifestyle that you can reverse.
