5.0 out of 5 stars your life in your hands Mar 6 2002
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
I read Janet Plant's book with great interest. I'm a phycisian and I specialize in medical weight management.Last 10 years I came to the same conclusion about milk as Dr. Plant did, based on my own clinical experiance.The medical literature is very clear about low incidence of cancer of the breast in Japanese or Chinese women living in their respective countries.In my practice I see so many patients with acid reflux disease, asthma, frequent migrain headaches,feeling tired all the time. As soon as we stop the milk and the related products their improvment is remarkable.I think it does not make sense that millions of our citezens take medications for the above mentioned disorders and do not follow a common sense aproach by discontinuing the milk products and giving themselves a chance to feel better naturally.I switch all my patients from milk to soy on their first visit and in one week they feel the difference.And in the end if we can prevent the women from not getting breast cancer it is worth the try. The book is written in easy format for everyone to understand and I recomend it to all medical professinals.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Economics of Beast Cancer Mar 12 2004
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
Jane Plant's book is ground-breaking and courageous. Every woman who's had breast cancer should read it. This is information no-one else will give you. Breast cancer is a huge industry, with expensive chemotherapy treatments that benefit only about one in ten women. Conventional medicine is limited in what it can offer breast cancer patients, and tends to camouflage the picture with pink ribbons, "look good, feel good" programs,and the like. I agree with the reviewer who suggested that the dairy industry doesn't want this information out there (remember the Mad Cow scare and the beef industry?)Women in Holland (high dairy intake) and farmers' wives have a higher incidence of breast cancer. Breast cancer patients need to help themselves in any way they can. I have read many alternative-therapy books but this one is tops, and is a must-read not only for women but also for men who wish to avoid prostate cancer, which is now one in eight, same as breast cancer. By the way, I'm an MD and a breast cancer patient.
