I applaud the author for writing this book and exposing the beast called cancer and it's chemotherapy companion. It seems going for naturopathy is an excellent way to combat cancer. Excellent review.

This does not sound like a book I would like. I think it’s great that she overcame cancer and wants to help others do the same, but I would be very annoyed by the repetitive nature of the book and the overall topic doesn’t appeal to me.

This book makes you really think; which is worse, dying from cancer or dying from the thing that is supposed to kill the cancer. And then fighting both of them at the same time to survive.

We have all seen or heard of a loved one who battled cancer and came out on top or succumbed while under treatment. The author gives a detailed account of the naturopathic steps she took to defeat cancer and circumvent the toxicity of chemotherapy. I would love to read the book, and learn from her. Thank you for a wonderful review.

Cancer does not just kill your body but it kills your soul and I'm in agreement with the thought that you expressed about chemo being a double edged sword.

I applaud the author's courage in sharing her story. It's always a delight to see scenarios where patients surpass doctors' expectations regarding their life spans. It's important to be conscious of your health despite being healthy. Thanks for the review.

It's so unnerving to know that the very thing that is supposed to kill the cancer cells can also kill the person receiving the treatments. In my opinion, we need so many more of these kinds of books to give cancer patients a choice in how they will treat their illness. Obviously, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Some people need chemotherapy while others may thrive with naturopathic remedies; it depends on the patient's unique needs. Thanks for your informative review.

It’s admirable the way the author fought cancer not once but twice and has now written a book to educate more people about it.

This seems like a very important book for many if not all of us. Cancer is a beast that we have all been touched by. I am glad that the author emphasizes the importance of doing your research and not dismissing medicine. Great review.
