Description

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The field of oncology emerged in the 1950s with the use of chemotherapy and radiotherapy to target the cell’s gene and the cell cycle. What was not recognized was the altered metabolism, which was found to be common to all cancers.
#2 The somatic theory is that the cancer is in the body’s cells, and that treating the cancer metabolism will reach the stem cell and offer the chance for a cure. But these treatments are much slower, taking many months.
#3 The war between the two camps, alternative and conventional, has escalated over the years, and it is confusing and frightening for patients. What they want is to get better, but they are being over-treated and poisoned with too much chemotherapy.
#4 You should find a nutritionist experienced with intermittent fasting, ketogenic, low glycaemic, macrobiotic or reduced-protein diets. They should tailor your nutrient intake to your personal requirements, and make sure that the diet is neither unnecessarily complex or extreme.

Insights from Chapter 1

#1

The field of oncology emerged in the 1950s with the use of chemotherapy and radiotherapy to target the cell’s gene and the cell cycle. What was not recognized was the altered metabolism, which was found to be common to all cancers.

#2

The somatic theory is that the cancer is in the body’s cells, and that treating the cancer metabolism will reach the stem cell and offer the chance for a cure. But these treatments are much slower, taking many months.

#3

The war between the two camps, alternative and conventional, has escalated over the years, and it is confusing and frightening for patients. What they want is to get better, but they are being over-treated and poisoned with too much chemotherapy.

#4

You should find a nutritionist experienced with intermittent fasting, ketogenic, low glycaemic, macrobiotic or reduced-protein diets. They should tailor your nutrient intake to your personal requirements, and make sure that the diet is neither unnecessarily complex or extreme.

#5

Until the metabolic approach is accepted as standard of care, arm yourself with knowledge and seek the help you need. You can make it, just like I did.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

I was going sailing with the team. I had been diagnosed with stage IV cancer nine months earlier, and had spent the winter hibernating, struggling to get through each day. I was emerging with the spring, and I wanted to fight the exhaustion that drained my strength.

#2

I was terrified about my future, which, if I listened to the medics, would be extremely short. But I wanted to keep my illness a secret, a private nightmare. I hated drawing attention to my problems.

#3

I was constantly sick during the races, and I was the one who had to pack the massive spinnaker, which could be as large as a tennis court. I loved the feeling of exertion and the wind on my face.

#4

I was diagnosed with a secondary cancer in 2000, and was still taking chemotherapy. I had kept the PICC line in my arm because I needed intravenous vitamin C infusions. I was mortified when my sailing cap was swept away by the wind.
Insights from Chapter 3

#1

I had been seeing a consultant for abnormal cervical changes since 1989, when I was first diagnosed with cancer. I had trusted the gynaecologist to do his job and had assumed that he was treating me correctly. But I was wrong.

#2

I had decided to go private, but I was still worried. I knew there was a problem, and the doctor was not taking it seriously enough. My health was at risk.

#3

I had found myself a great job in a private physiotherapy practice in Guernsey. I was earning good money. And Guernsey was beautiful. A ten-minute drive after work would take me to the marina, where I could go sailing for the evening.

#4

I had been with Andrew for only two months when I got the diagnosis. I was young, and I knew I would survive. I was certain of it. But my relationship with Andrew was not so sure.

#5

I was diagnosed with cancer just hours before we were to leave for the Caribbean. The gynaecologist at the South London hospital had told me that there was nothing to worry about, but I was still shocked. I had always dreamed of having a happy home full of kids’ laughter, but now that seemed impossible.

#6

I was diagnosed with an aggressive and fast-growing cancer. I was being pushed into surgery without any time to think or check my surgeon’s background. The surgeon told me that if the cancer had progressed to any lymph nodes, I would need chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

#7

I was devastated to learn that my cancer had spread beyond my ovaries, and that I would need to undergo chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
