Pam -
I would strongly recommend you buy one of my favorite books and it comes with a CD to overview the book - so you can just pop it into the CD player (even in the car!) but it really helped me understand how we need to give our bodies the right food when taking our drug cocktails. It is a fabulous book - easy to understand with many really great recommendations and also combinations to help those on chemo deal and still give their bodies what they are craving. It really helped me and I am digesting the "core" of the book now reading daily on it. (I've listened to the CD probably 6 times!)

Also sending you some websites and other books - but this one is a good starter I think for you.

Few of my favorite sites with loads of information:

http://www.i-amperfectlyhealthy.com/index.html
http://www.cancerfightingstrategies.com/index.html
http://www.carcinomacancer.org/cance...ph-factor.html
www.drday.com
http://www.cancerrd.com/
www.livingfoodsinstitute.com
http://cancermonitor.blogspot.com/20...reatments.html
http://www.creativehealthinstitute.com/wheat_grass.htm
http://www.healthquarters.org/
www.gerson.org

Favorite Books: (note I bought all these 1/2 price - or discounted from Amazon.com --- and then friends and family brought them to me in Italy!)

The "Cancer Battle Plan Sourcebook" (this is the updated version he has two Cancer Battleplans so make sure you get the SOURCEBOOK) by David Frahm
Crazy Sexy Cancer Survivor – by Kris Carr (this will make you laugh and even cry but I love her sassy attitude and her overall approach to fighting cancer moving forward!)
Beating Cancer with Nutrition – by Patrick Quillin PhD, RD, CNS (also comes with a great CD - overview of his book that is great for the car or to get a feel for the book in general)
Eat to Live – by Joel Fuhrman, MD
The Gerson Therapy – The amazing nutritional program for cancer and other illnesses – by Charlotte Gerson and Morton Walker, DPM
A Cancer Therapy – Results of Fifty Cases – by Max Gerson, MD
(if you haven't heard of Max Gerson - read up on him --- if I ever have cancer try to come back I will go on his diet - even more strict than what I am doing now - he also juices every hour .... its intense but I feel it really does work! Impressive stuff and very interesting! Worth reading!)

HANG IN THERE!
