5Good Information and Good Food, Too!  Jan 19, 2000
This book has very helpful information for Cancer patients going through Chemotherapy and Radiation treatments. Everyone can benefit from this information. The recipes are Excellent and easy. I like the fact that nutritional information is given and and that hints are given on how to increase the calorie intake when needed. I wish I had seen this book when I was in treatment. I use and love the recipes now!

4This is a very helpful book.  Apr 03, 2000 By M. M. McMahon
This book was recommended to me by an oncologist, and I found it was very helpful. There are recipes devoted to foods easier to eat for patients who have side effects from chemotherapy. Some very delicious soups, smoothees, etc. This cookbook shows that nutritious recipes can taste very good.

1The Cancer Survival Cookbook  Nov 11, 2009 By D. Calvert
I was absolutely shocked at the recipes included in this book. The desserts are loaded with fat, even trans fats, and sugar. When my mother was fighting cancer, she was told she could have a very small amount of butter, but never margarine. The chocolate chip bars in this book are the same recipe as on the package of chocolate chips only says to use butter flavored shortening instead of butter. REALLY? Use hydrogenated, trans fat instead? And the amount of sugar is the same too. Why do other cancer experts advise to cut out added sugar and unhealthy added fats? Says to mix cream cheese with various nuts and fruit for a spread to use on bagels, toast, etc. How about advising to cut it out? Lots of really bad recipes in this book.


4It's not about the recipes  Nov 07, 2011 By Lori Marx-Rubiner
The brilliance of this book is not the recipes, folks...it's learning how to manage treatment symptoms with simple and easy dietary adjustments. The first section of the book is loaded with tips that work for all kinds of common side effects. As for the recipes, I agree they aren't all healthy, but when you are rapidly losing weight as a result of chemo, you can't stop that with more fruits and veggies. I am a cancer coach and recommend this book to almost all my clients, just not as a cookbook. If, however, you want a great COOKBOOK, The New American Plate is fabulous!

Easy every-day recipes with ingredients that are in your everyday kitchen. Big PRINT, which is very nice for the "aged" eyes.
