Prostate Cancer: Understand, Prevent and Overcome - Hardcover

Prostate cancer, scientifically similar in many ways to breast cancer, is the second most common cancer (behind lung cancer) among men. And it is becoming ever more prevalent. In Professor Jane Plant's international bestseller on breast cancer, Your Life in Your Hands, she advocated, from personal experience, a way of life and non-dairy diet that helped her beat her breast cancer. In Prostate Cancer: Understand, Prevent and Overcome, Professor Plant brings her knowledge to bear on prostate cancer, including information on the science behind the disease and the reasons why her programme works, as well as case studies of men following her programme. This is a ground-breaking book for prostate cancer sufferers and their families.

Professor Jane Plant is a widely respected scientist, who was awarded a CBE for her work in relation to human health and in 2005 was made a Life Fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine for her books on cancer. She contracted breast cancer in 1987 at the age of 42: the disease recurred a further four times. She adopted the diet and lifestyle changes she advocates in her book, and has now been clear of breast cancer for fifteen years.
