Summary: uplifting and scientifically sound advice
Review: As a nutritionist and registered dietitian, I often am asked for resources to help family members or patients themselves that are trying to navigate through cancer treatments. Many times, they are seeking credibly sound information that can augment the path that their health care advisor has mapped out. This book is so helpful with easy to understand and great suggestions in the arena of food and nutrients. I find the "tone" and manner that it is written is wonderful and uplifting....it helps the reader note that the mind and body are connected and to support good health, keeping this perspective is so useful! Thanks to the Quillins to providing this guidebook. I recommend it to any health professional as well.

Summary: An Invaluable Resource
Review: As a practicing physician myself, I've recommended Dr. Quillin's book, Beating Cancer With Nutrition, to hundred's of my patients since the first edition came out in 1994, and am pleased to continue to suggest his new edition to all of my patients suffering from any form of cancer. As an author, I've found this book to be accurate, complete, up-to-date, easy to read and use, and both practical and sufficiently comprehensive in scope. There is no better book on the subject of cancer and nutrition and every cancer patient, family member of a cancer victim, and all doctors that work with cancer patients should own a copy of this invaluable book.

Summary: beating cancer the natural way!
Review: Beating cancer with nutrition is giving the reader all the background information about cancer and how to best fight it. In addition, Dr. Quillin outlines his approach for nutritional therapy. The reader can choose to buy the supplements seperately or can buy Immunopower, a combination of powder (for shakes) and pills. Yes, Immunopower has been developed by Dr. Quillin and is quiet expensive. But buying seperately (and I have tried to do this) is even more expensive. Unfortunately, cancer is not an easy or cheap disease to fight. Dr. Quillin talks a lot about Immunopower in his book, but only because it truly is the best thing out there to fight cancer.
I was diagnosed with Stage II breast cancer in Sept. 2002. At the time, I only underwent chemo without any additional nutrition therapy. My cancer metastasized and by January of 2004 I was back in chemo. This time, I had met some increadible cancer patients who had battled cancer with the help of Immunopower. I started to take the supplements myself right away. My tumor has since dissapeared!! My doctor called it highly unusual. I am 38 years old, mother of a 5 and a 9 year old boy. My doctor initially felt, that I might at most have 2 years more to live. He is now more confident than even I am, that I will live to see my own grandchildren. My husband is now taking ImmunopwerEZ, just as an insurance.
Health, unfortunately, is not cheap, but rather worth every last penny.

Summary: Very disappointed
Review: Because of the title I bought the book, because I am against using chemo and radiation, so when I saw the title "Beating Cancer with Nutrition", that's what I believed it to be about.
If you know nothing about vitamins and don't have the internet, this book will interest you.
Also because he has a book entitled, Healing Secrets from the Bible", I didn't think he was going to rely on conventional methods, but he does advocate radiation and chemo.

Summary: Excellent except for....
Review: Dr Quillan has written an excellent book. Especially the nutrition aspect. My only complaint is that there are literally hundreds of supplements to choose from. For me, it was a little overwhelming.At times, it felt like searching for a needle in a haystck. After suffering through BRUTAL chemo for 12 treatments that made me DEATHLY ill, I am convinced that I could not go through that again. The oncologist predicts this rare form of lymphoma will be back in about 5 years. So, I consulted a naturopath to help direct me, and to my surprise almost everything she currently has me on is found in Dr. Quillan's book. Plus, I have never eaten healthier in my life. Thank you Dr. Quillan! I hope to prove the oncologist wrong!

Review: Forget toxic and ineffective chemo and radiation therapy! This book shows you how to use food and nutritional supplements to beat cancer.This approach isnt always successful and cures arent guaranteed,but it often works when conventional toxic treatments fail.The body has a remarkable ability to heal itself if you give it the nutritional fortification it needs.This book shows you how.
