Download or read book Cancer: Improving Your Odds written by John G. Herron and published by Eagle Stock Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you looking for actionable things that you can do to help your cancer treatment, or possibly prevent cancer in the first place? Something with scientific evidence that it works? Something that you won’t be embarrassed to discuss with your family doctor or oncologist? Something that can improve your immune system and general health? That is exactly what you will find in this book. Read on for… • Actionable methods for naturally treating and preventing cancer (the scientific way, not the internet blogger way) • Simple things that you can add to your medical treatment to Improve Your Odds of successfully fighting cancer • 100% backed by science that you, or your doctor, can easily verify • Easy to read and understand, but formatted so that you can share the science with your doctor • Improve your immune system and general health • Evidence that some of the recommendations may significantly improve immunotherapy outcomes, as well as benefit chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments. • New research information that has the potential to save many lives My hope is you’ll use this information to improve your medical treatment, not replace it. Even though some of the natural treatments have been scientifically shown to be very effective on their own, they are even more effective when used in conjunction with modern medicine. This is called “adjuvant” therapy. You should strive to “Improve Your Odds” of beating cancer, not thumb your nose at modern medicine. You do not need a scientific or medical background to understand this narrative—but its claims are evidenced with scientific abstracts that your doctor will appreciate (abstracts that you can skip if you wish to cut your reading time in half!). You will find that all recommendations have solid evidence behind them; this isn’t just another book where someone is simply making it all up and telling you what you want to hear. You should read this book with a highlighter and pencil at your side. This book has been extensively researched, and some of the information found here you will probably find in no other book or medical website. There is a special emphasis on how you can improve your immune system to better fight almost any cancer, even before you know you have it. You aren’t trying to fire your doctor; you just want to help “Improve Your Odds.” This book will help you do that. Your oncologist will want to know all of the supplements you are taking and why. This book includes the scientific abstracts and the information they need to find the full research studies. This will explain the “why” so you don’t have to. They may also want to geek out on all of this science as they rarely get exposed to research on natural cancer treatments. Finally, this book enables you to take some control over your cancer treatment or genetic predisposition. In fact, most of the recommendations in this book are great even if you are healthy, as they can help prevent cancer and improve your immune system, too. Whether you may have breast cancer, skin cancer, lung cancer, etc., improving the immune system and your body’s ability to fight cancer is always beneficial.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important addition to the literature of cancer by an award-winning scholar and memoirist. Elaborating upon her “Living with Cancer” column in the New York Times, Susan Gubar helps patients, caregivers, and the specialists who seek to serve them. In a book both enlightening and practical, she describes how the activities of reading and writing can right some of cancer’s wrongs. To stimulate the writing process, she proposes specific exercises, prompts, and models. In discussions of the diary of Fanny Burney, the stories of Leo Tolstoy and Alice Munro, numerous memoirs, novels, paintings, photographs, and blogs, Gubar shows how readers can learn from art that deepens our comprehension of what it means to live or die with the disease. From a writer whose own memoir, Memoir of a Debulked Woman: Enduring Ovarian Cancer, was described by the New York Times Book Review as “moving and instructive…and incredibly brave,” this volume opens a path to healing.

Download or read book Cancer in the Community written by Martha Levittan Balshem and published by Smithsonian Books (DC). This book was released on 1993 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on deep conflicts between the medical establishment and the working class, Martha Balshem chronicles a health education project in "Tannerstown", a pseudonym for a blue-collar neighborhood in northeast Philadelphia. Her study is based on her experience as a health educator and anthropologist at the Fox Chase Cancer Center, working with a team of behavioral scientists to educate the public about cancer risk factors. Incorporating emotional, vivid interviews and rich personal narratives, Cancer in the Community addresses such issues as the ethics of professional authority, class antagonisms, and the politicization of cancer. Identified in an epidemiological report as a "cancer hot spot", Tannerstown was targeted by Fox Chase's Project CAN-DO as a community in need of professional guidance. Health educators advised residents to stop smoking, improve their diets, and schedule regular cancer screening tests. This advice, supposedly regarded by the American public as sound and "true", nevertheless was rejected by most Tannerstowners, who believed industrial pollution from nearby chemical plants and air pollution from traffic were the major causes of cancer in their community. Probing the chronic frustration and distrust that persisted between the two groups, Balshem found that medical professionals tended to view working-class patients as problems in need of correction, while Tannerstowners saw doctors as arrogant and controlling. The medical professionals believed that cancer risk was largely attributable to lifestyle factors, but community residents refused to accept "blame" for their disease. While still part of the Fox Chase team, Balshem began to question the right of medicalauthorities to dictate changes in lifestyle while discounting the residents' self-diagnosis of environmental risk factors. Cancer in the Community includes a case history of one Tannerstown resident who died of cancer. Extensive - and wrenching - interviews with the patient's wife and his physician illuminate the underlying struggles concerning social class, power inequalities, and the control of knowledge. In a passionate critique of health education and the constraints of medical professionalism, Balshem traces the sources of conflict about the causes of and treatment for cancer to deeper oppositions concerning truth, justice, and meaning.

Heather did not back away from the silent emotions one goes through; it truly touches on many of the emotions of this journey in a distinctive way to assist that others will know they are not alone and understand there is hope. This book has been reviewed by cancer survivors, mental health professionals, and clergy, and has been found to be supportive for those fighting for their lives. Regardless of where you or a loved one is along this individual journey; these cartoons will be inspiring and humorous.

Rickus, MS, LMHC Hess leads us through Humor and Hope to the other banks of the ocean of pain and anxiety where one can sprout again with hope and peace from the rubbles of cancer. -Father Sebastian Earthedath, MST, Pastor, Our Lady Queen of Peace. When Heather called me after her breast cancer diagnosis, I was heartbroken. Our sorority of breast cancer fighters and survivors is exclusive, but not coveted. The attitude Heather had was positive, just like her attitude toward life. Her unique insight into life situations has been well-illustrated within her artwork for many years. I know her collection of comical viewpoints of the uncomfortable, quirky positions that cancer fighters and their caregivers face will bring many laughs, lighten the uneasiness of sensitive topics, and encourage hope for the future. -Paula S.

Download or read book Reimagining Women's Cancers written by Michele Berman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's fascination with celebrities never gets old. From People magazine, with a readership of 43 million to Internet sites like JustJared.com with over 80 million monthly views, celebrity information not only sells, it educates people about important issues––including cancer. Information is empowering and reading about a famous person coping with cancer can not only be inspiring, it can save a life. That's what Reimagining Cancer exemplifies through each of the books in the series Cancer doesn't have to be a death sentence. About half of all cancers are preventable and can be avoided if current medical knowledge is better delivered*. This new series, beginning with Reimagining Women's Cancers—focusing on cancer of the breasts, ovaries, uterus, cervix, vagina and vulva—provides readers with that critical information to help them manage, cope, and recover through a concise, easy-to-read style and format. Beginning with a view of basic anatomy and an overview of how we view a particular cancer today, chapters flow easily into an explanation of signs, symptoms, diagnosis, scientific information and guidelines, and include a comprehensive survey of treatments and prevention. Woven throughout are stories, both medical and anecdotal, from women such as Angelina Jolie, Joan Lunden, Melissa Etheridge, Sandra Lee, Rita Wilson, Christina Applegate, and Suzanne Somers. Education is the key, and by using celebrity stories, Reimagining Women's Cancers can attract countless readers who might otherwise not pay attention to an epidemic that is likely to affect them or a loved one. * The recent World Cancer Report from the World Health Organization
