Product Features
A cancer diagnosis can leave patients and families overwhelmed with questions — especially about food, supplements, and what can be done each day to support the body.
Beating Cancer with Nutrition provides a clear, science-informed roadmap for using nutrition as a supportive partner alongside appropriate medical care. Written with compassion and practicality, it helps readers understand complex nutritional concepts and turn them into realistic everyday choices.
First published in 1993, this trusted guide has sold more than 500,000 copies. The extensively updated fifth edition brings together 400 pages of research, clinical insight, practical recommendations, recipes, and encouraging patient profiles.
Dr. Patrick Quillin, PhD, RD, CNS, draws upon 47 years of professional experience, including 10 years as Vice President of Nutrition at Cancer Treatment Centers of America. Author of 21 books, Dr. Quillin translates the science of nutrition and cancer into guidance that patients and caregivers can understand and use.
INSIDE THIS COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE, YOU'LL DISCOVER:
* How nutrition can help support strength, nourishment, immune function, and quality of life
* The important relationship between cancer, metabolism, blood sugar, inflammation, and malnutrition
* Foods to emphasize — and foods to limit — while navigating cancer treatment and recovery
* Practical guidance on vitamins, minerals, herbs, dietary supplements, and other nutritional tools
* Strategies for safely integrating nutrition with conventional medical treatment in consultation with your healthcare team
* Simple meal-planning ideas, recipes, and everyday steps that make healthy eating more manageable
* Scientific references for readers and healthcare professionals who want to explore the evidence more deeply
Beating Cancer with Nutrition is written for patients, caregivers, families, and health professionals seeking a thoughtful, accessible, and comprehensive resource.
This is not a promise of a miracle cure. It is something more useful: a practical guide to becoming better informed, better nourished, and more actively involved in your care.
When so much feels beyond your control, nutrition provides meaningful choices you can begin making today.

Great Guide and Reference. If you’re in a jam, trying to catch up and build a plan — this is a great book. It’s structured like a textbook, with very organized chapters, sections, and indexes.This plan has helped me quickly laser-focus on my nutrition and supplement plan. Too bad my med team isn’t as interested ( or informed! ) in nutrition as I am, but I’m all-in on this plan.

Excellent book. The best nutritional book I have read. I’ve read many. Does not matter whether you do or do not have cancer. Practical information. Recommended to me by a friend was was dying from cancer 30 years ago. He read early edition and improved health for several years. He had lived through cancer treatments, and felt worse so he dropped them all. He had enough energy to start a business and was a spokesman for “clean” living. He died just before Christmas–30 years after he was diagnosed. This book is loaded!
