Book Description

Release Date: Oct 16 2007
From the bestselling authors of Foods That Fight Cancer comes the companion cookbook.

Foods That Fight Cancer has sold more than 180,000 copies across Canada and has kick-started a revolution in our understanding of the cancer-fighting properties of food. Now we know of the health properties of green tea, dark chocolate, and red wine, but how do we learn to incorporate these foods into our daily diet? Anticipating this dilemma, authors Richard Béliveau and Denis Gingras have teamed up with professional chefs to create Cooking with Foods that Fight Cancer.

Featuring 160 specially created, delicious recipes — including Cuban Black Bean Soup, Scallop and Strawberry Rosettes, Maghreb Couscous, Sweet Chestnut Brownies — and packed with information on the latest research developments in the field, this gorgeous, full-colour cookbook is the essential companion to the first bestselling volume.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great book but Feb 29 2008
By mandala
Format:Paperback
Part one of this book is an overview of cancer, the risk factors, initiating factors etc. Part two focuses on a discussion of the various generally accepted anti-cancer foods such as various mushrooms, garlic, tumeric, ginger etc. Beautifully photographed and illustrated. The third section deals with recipes. Here is where the book falls apart. There are many dessert recipes that include sugar - a known cancer promoter. Many recipes include red meat, including beef, pork and lamb - these are also known cancer promoters as they are high in iron and arachadonic acid. The veggie recipes looked great. It is a good book for those who want more information on diet as it relates to cancer but it is just a start. One must read many more books to get the whole story on diet and cancer.
