If you are into healthy eating.......
You have to get the anti cancer book, it is awesome! I posted the TOC earlier. I remember when I was diagnosed and wanted sugar sooooooooo bad, after 50 years for staying away from sugar because I had no interest it. Well this doctor talks about how white flour and sugar being the worst thing to put in your body, it creates insulin which feeds the tumor big time! It is a very interesting book, in more ways then one. I love the CD but wish I had the book, because he gives you so many references and websites. He has done so much leg work!

By the way the Kashi frozen meals are awesome!

Man typo galore! Fixed.

Great book
I read the Anti-cancer book, and had to recommended it too. It was very inspirational, and offered tons of information. It's so funny the experiences he had with his doctors and colleagues, being a doctor himself. They treated him similarly to how i was treated as far as the docs poo-pooing stress as an illness trigger, and not listening to him about anything. I think we should be giving that book out to our doctors to read! It could change the whole mentality of the medical industry!

Hugs!
