Recent statistics show that one out of every three people will likely get cancer at some point in their lifetime. This finding is devastating and alerting and should inform everyone about how vital the war against cancer is. Therefore, when I saw the title of this incredible book, I immediately became interested. Winning the War on Cancer: The Epic Journey Towards a Natural Cure by Sylvie Beljanski is an insightful and thought-provoking read.

Sylvie originally had no intention of sharing her story. This changes when she attends a symposium and cannot get a laptop to illustrate her medical arguments to the audience. She, therefore, has no choice but to share her story with the audience. This story gets some amazing responses from the audience and these responses prompt her to share this personal story. Her father, Mirko Beljanski, had been in a fight with powerful forces in the country because of his research on natural treatments for cancer and HIV. In fact, he was arrested and allegedly poisoned by the French government for the work he did. Upon his death, his daughter took over the research and work he was doing. Sylvie, in this book, talks about scientifically and clinically tested and proven natural medicine for cancer. She does this without dismissing the conventional methods of treatment for cancer. She actually argues that the two are complementary.

I got so engrossed in the book that I couldn't stop flipping the pages. The author tackles a sensitive and vital subject in the best possible manner. She acknowledges efforts made in developing cancer drugs and other conventional methods of treatment. She talks about the good and the bad sides of these drugs without entirely dismissing them. This is the exact opposite, she says, of how natural treatments are perceived. She writes the book to advocate for the adoption of a comprehensive system of treatment.

"Since there is very little big "money" to be made with botanical solutions to cancer and other diseases, they are ignored in favor of money-making drugs, even if the botanical is shown to be more effective and far less toxic."

This excerpt from the book got me a little worried. I have recently read articles, books, and newspapers that made similar claims to the ones Sylvie makes. It makes me doubt our ability as a globe to go on full-blown war with this menace called cancer. What is it with big pharmaceuticals and profits that makes them get their eyes off the ball? I love that this author courageously and expertly opines the problem in this book. Like many other issues, the first step to finding a solution would be to talk about them, this book ticks that box.

I found the author's claims quite easy to believe. She worked really hard to give the work credibility and legitimacy by providing published scientific facts. It was beautiful to see her stand and defend her father's work. Testimonies from people helped by the natural medicine they made also did the trick. She does all these in a language that is friendly and simple enough for people to understand. I did not find anything negative in the book.

I, therefore, give this book a perfect rating of four out of four stars. It was beautifully written and exceptionally edited. I'd recommend it to patients of cancer and policymakers globally. Patients should have the option of choosing the kind of treatment they want, and this book helps them explore those options. Policymakers, on the other hand, will formulate more progressive policies after reading this book.

This might be a good book to read to gain an insight into the various possible options. The important thing is to not forget to consult an oncologist before making any decision. Thank you for your honest review!

I agree with you that the fact that one out of three people will acquire cancer in their life is very alarming. I hope this book would be very much informative when it comes to natural cures for cancer. Thank you for the wonderful review!

As per the review this seems to be an eye opening book. I feel that everyone should go through such books which give us some basic idea of naturopathy and curing the fatal diseases with it. Great review, thanks.

Although I'm sceptical about the French govt. murdering the author's dad (sounds like a conspiracy theory to me), I would still like to read about the naturopathic research that you've mentioned in the review.

This is a great expose given from the review and I think Sylvie to be a strong woman carrying on with her father's reputation.
