When you are going through treatment do you think of nutrition as part of your overall wellness? You should. When Rebecca Katz filled in for a colleague at the Commonweal Cancer center she found her calling. Rebecca was ahead of her time, talking about Food as Medicine, and her book The Cancer Fighting Kitchen, making nutrition a big part of the healing process for cancer patients during treatment and beyond.
Rebecca Katz has produced an invaluable resource for persons with cancer, their families, friends, and doctors. Instead of telling patients to eat whatever they want or "just eat a balanced diet," we can now show them how to control disease and optimize health with delicious, nourishing food from The Cancer-Fighting Kitchen. I recommend this book highly." —Andrew Weil, M.D.
"If food is medicine, Rebecca Katz is one of the great healers. The Cancer Fighting Kitchen is a book for anyone who wants to eat as if their life matters." — Rachel Naomi Remen, M.D. Author, Kitchen Table Wisdom & My Grandfather's Blessings
"Rebecca Katz thinks "big" when it comes to flavor, and "strong" when it comes to slowing cancer. Enjoy the book!" — David Servan-Schreiber, MD,
