FIGHT CANCER WITH FLAVOUR
“Cancer treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy and radiation can be almost as hard on the body as the disease itself, and detailed nutrition advice is usually not on the program. Fight Cancer with Flavour is an incredibly rich and satisfying book. It is a great resource for anyone who wants to eat as if their life matters. Fight Cancer with Flavour is the first book across the world with diets for cancer patients with Indian meals under soups, smoothies, snacks, rice, roti, main course and desserts, using commonly available ingredients that have the cancer healing properties and are easy on the pocket.
