The Cancer Survival Cookbook by D. Calvert 1 Stars
November 11, 2009
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.

Cancer and Meat and dairy and chocolate?? by Dane (Fort Lauderdale, FL USA) 1 Stars
January 04, 2008
I was very disappointed with this book. Cancer recipes with meat, dairy, sugar and chocolate? Please! We know better than that. Meat is the mother of all cancers, sugar feeds cancer cells and dairy is loaded with growth hormones! Unfortunately there is no option to give a review zero stars! This book is only useful for an ordinary mortal who does not and never had cancer.

This is a very helpful book. by M. M. McMahon (Rockport, MA USA) 4 Stars

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.

Good Information and Good Food, Too! 5 Stars
January 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!
