About the Author

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.

From the Back Cover

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers among men, yet research into the illness has been so underfunded it is years behind research into other cancers.

Professor Jane Plant, an establishment scientist, reveals why the establishment has singularly failed to tell us the facts about what really causes cancer, and explains:

What is cancer? The latest scientific evidence linking dairy produce with prostate cancerThe latest cancer therapies from high intensity ultrasound (HIFU) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) to gene therapiesThe food and lifestyle factors to cut your risk of developing prostate cancer
This groundbreaking book has been completely revised and updated including the latest science-based advice on dietary and lifestyle factors that can help you prevent and overcome prostate cancer as well as other types of cancer, including pancreatic, colorectal and testicular cancer.

Prostate cancer and its treatment can cause pain and discomfort, incontinence, sexual impotence and relationship and psychological problems. This book will tell you how to substantially cut your risk of ever having the disease.
