After Cancer Care: The Definitive Self-Care Guide to Getting and Staying Well for Patients after Cancer

Dr Mehta is so calming and helpful. This book provides useful tips and supports.

This is the 'go-to'-book for any cancer survivor. It educates individuals on how to re-take full charge of their lives after conventional cancer treatment. It is so well and simply written that it is accessible to most readers. This book helps individuals to understand the correlation between lifestyle choices and the promotion or suppression of cancer formation in the individual body. It provides individuals with easy-to-use and naturally-accessible tools to stay healthy after conventional cancer treatment, which is, unfortunately, information that is not transmitted to patients after completing conventional cancer treatments in many medical institutions. This book promotes the case of why integrative medicine and integrative oncology should be adopted by all cancer-treating medical institutions! It is a highly-recommended must-read for anybody interested in making cancer history in our time!

I've bought this book for everyone I know who has had or is battling cancer. Once someone has survived the arduous struggle of cancer treatment, if they survive, the medical community just cuts them loose and says, "come back in 6 months" or "now you can go back to your old life." But without critical changes in diet, excercise, elimination of cancer inducing foods or habits, that battle is not over. This books tell you how to make critical changes for life after cancer. It's a MUST for anyone who has had, or knows someone who has had cancer.

There was not a lot of 'new' in this book. It's a fast read, and I think for someone not in health profession, it probably contains a lotof helpful information. Once treatment done, my own experience was of being rather dismissed, even tho I'll be seeing my oncologistregularly for the next five years. I could write my own book re: what a patient must do to ensure correct care and treatment, as the doctorsand clinics drop the ball regularly. And what they don't know about nutrition is shocking. So this book is useful, and I would buy it again.

I almost never write reviews. However,this book earned one. After surviving stage three hodgkins lymphoma this book has given me the information and tools i need to re-evauluate my life. If you have had cancer or love someone going through it,I highly suggest buying this book.

I bought this for a friend. My husband read this after his cancer experience and said it was perfectly written- so many experiences that were so much like how own. Much attention is given to the patient while they are in the middle of chemotherapy but once you're done it kind of falls off the map.... That's where this book picks up. Helpful advice on eating, exercising, etc. my husband loved this book.

As advertised!

An absolute must read for any cancer fighter or survivor. I appreciate that their recommendations are science based. I am a nurse practitioner and cancer survivor and avidly read on the topic of recurrence prevention. This sums up all the most critical research in an easy-to-read book. Buy it as a gift for your friends and family with cancer!

This book fills an important gap. There are so many books that talk about how to prevent cancer in the first place (many of which aren't evidence-based and make exaggerated claims about superfoods, carbs, or other trends). And there are also lots of books that talk about managing cancer once you have it by staying positive. This is a book for survivors of cancer, who have been through therapy of various kinds (such as chemo, radiation, and/or surgery). It is filled with relatable scenarios for that category of people, which don't often get talked about. It has tips for getting over physical, emotional, and social longer-term side effects of coming through cancer treatment, building back strength and navigating relationships and eating well for future prevention. It seems grounded in science while having an understanding that there is more to a human being than the body as a machine. I would recommend it for anyone who has come through cancer treatment and is looking to future quality of life as a survivor, or for their loved ones and caregivers.

I have read a good number of books following a cancer diagnosis and treatment. This book is an essential read for anyone wanting to make simple necessary changes to their life and routine to help prevent a recurrence. It's easy to read, explaining the do's and don'ts without making the information confusing and difficult to understand. Excellent read.

Very elaborately written by the doctors themselves..Very informative and well explained.Read only half the book yet.Must read for all who have completed their cancer treatment

It's a book for anyone who is interested to stay h e a l t h y or is probably a cancer survivor: You should own and read this. IT'S A MUST!!And if you think you cannot afford to stay healthy, I recommend: [...]The right sentence of the book cover “The definitive Self-Care Guide to getting and staying well for patients AFTER cancer” should be “ . . . and staying well for patients B E F O R E cancer”.Because “ . . . healing is not always the same as physical recovery from illness” (McKee - forward)The author-Drs-Trio Lemole/ Mehta/ McKee fills the post-treatment gap (and the PRE-treatment EC) and offers you much-needed, holistic information to thrive after (and before EC) cancer and . . . helps you to enjoy many years of cancer-free serenity” and life a joyful, healthy life!

Excellent book!!
