Book Preview:

#1 The power of food is that it is a very conscious decision. Will I choose a sugary cereal or oatmeal with fruit. Will it be the quick peanut butter and jelly sandwich or the longer-to-make quinoa salad. For most people, there is a nagging doubt underlying these daily food choices, and it whispers, Does this really matter.

#2 The connection between cancer cells and sugar was first discovered in the 1920s by a doctor named Otto Warburg. He noticed that cancer cells get their energy by breaking down unusually large amounts of glucose, and that they breathe anaerobically, without oxygen.

#3 There are two main reasons why Radical Remission survivors eliminate dairy from their diet. The first is that dairy is the breast milk of another animal, and it is packed with hormones and proteins meant to make a baby calf grow. Humans are the only species that drinks the breast milk of another animal.

#4 The final group of foods that Radical Remission survivors eliminate is refined foods, especially refined grains. These foods have a very high glycemic index, meaning their carbohydrates are quickly converted into glucose, which cancer cells love.

The final group of foods that Radical Remission survivors eliminate is refined foods, especially refined grains. These foods have a very high glycemic index, meaning their carbohydrates are quickly converted into glucose, which cancer cells love.
