Annotation

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 The metabolic approach to cancer is a naturopathic nutrition program that utilizes the medicinal powers of traditional foods, therapeutic diets, and nontoxic lifestyle approaches as cancer counteragents and preventatives. It was developed by Dr. Nasha during her thirty years of work in the fields of naturopathy, Oriental medicine, acupuncture, nutrition, and integrative oncology.#2 The key to treating cancer is to optimize the body's healing mechanisms instead of waging war on them. We must treat the terrain, not the tumor. We must build the body up instead of attacking it.#3 Eating well is not just a good idea, but the specific phytonutrients we discuss in this book have proven medicinal action against cancer. By incorporating the Terrain Ten, your ability to prevent or survive cancer will increase exponentially.#4 The ten elements of the Terrain Ten are genetic, epigenetic, and nutrigenomic modifications, blood sugar balance, toxic burden management, repopulating and balancing the microbiome, immune system maximization, stress management, hormonal balance, and mental and emotional well-being.
