Why is reading the book, A New Strategy for the War on Cancer, so essential to your well-being?

If you are an American woman, you have 1 in 3 odds of having cancer in your lifetime. If you are an American man, your odds are 1 in 2. If you don’t beat those odds, you’re in for the most debilitating treatment of any disease in this country. The same basic conventional treatment—chemo, radiation, and surgery—hasn’t changed much in 50 years, and it is having limited success.  Only 8% fewer victims are dying from cancer now than 50 years ago. Almost 100% of all cancer patients experience all the awful side effects of the treatment, and about 40% of them die while being treated.

My new book, A New Strategy for the War on Cancer explains in plain language the emerging, scientifically proven option of natural, non-toxic complementary therapies that many leading American oncologists are using to enhance conventional therapies, reduce their harmful side effects, and increase survivability. This book is endorsed by numerous physicians including a prominent Harvard professor of medicine and the former president of the American Cancer Society. It is credible, legitimate, and provides all the information you need to make the right choices when you or a loved one is diagnosed with cancer.

As promised, I continue postings about my participation in the Society for Integrative Oncology Conference last week.

Among the many medical icons who presented at this conference, the keynote speaker was Dr. Francis S. Collins, Director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Except for the Secretary of Health and Human Services, a White House Cabinet position, the NIH Director is the most influential person in America for medical policy and research. The NIH consists of 27 government funded institutes and centers that develop and advance policy for just about every health issue of our society. One of these institutes is the National Cancer Institute(NCI) that funds a major portion of cancer research and treatment trials. Within the NCI is the Office of Cancer Complementary and Alternative Medicine (OCCAM). Additionally, the NIH has its own CAM office, called the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM). I explain the roles and efforts of all of these offices in my book, A New Strategy for the War on Cancer, and they are too complex for a blog post. But, the point is that Dr. Collins is a top player in all that happens in this nation’s approach to medicine in general and cancer in particular. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to hear what he had to say about integrative cancer care. Actually, I was very surprised to see him as keynote speaker for our conference.
