The words slowly sank in-"Mrs. Nussbaum, you have cancer." So began Elaine Nussbaum's personal struggle with this frightening disease. Despite surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, the cancer spread to Elaine's bones and lungs. Finally, she stopped all treatments and began to practice macrobiotics in a last-ditch effort to save her life. Slowly, steadily, she regained her health.

recovery from cancer

this book was riveting. i could not put it down. having just lost a friend to cancer, treated entirely by conventional means, i can only believe that our medical system, in refusing to examine diet & nutrition, is hell bent on killing us for profit. cheers to ms. nussbaum for saving herself and providing an example to us all that it can be done
