Help Fight & Prevent Many Common Health Problems Through Diet
Jane Plant's breast cancer recurred five times before she learned of the relationship between diet and the disease. The lifestyle of non-dairy eating and healthy living she adopted to compliment her conventional medical treatment overcame her cancer and she wrote about those food and lifestyle factors in her internationally bestselling book 'Your Life In Your Hands' and, with fellow scientist Gill Tidey, the recipe book 'The Plant Programme'.
Now Jane Plant and Gill Tidey show that this diet can also be beneficial in the prevention and treatment of several other common diseases. The authors have expanded the information about their diet to look at a variety of illnesses - some common, some minor and some more serious. They clearly explain the principles of the diet before discussing the illnesses and aspects of the diet that will help (including what foods and products to avoid). Key sections on cardiovascular, digestive tract and skin diseases and bone problems are followed by delicious, easy-to-make and nutritious recipes.
