Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Dear Readers: First of all, I want to say I want to prevent cancer recurrence. Recurrence means cancer coming back. I survived a Desmond tumor 15 years ago. A Desmond tumor is a very low grade sarcoma, only 10% chance to recur. I know with the lifestyle adjustments in this book I learned and do, the chance of recurrence is probably zero. Recurrence, or cancer coming back is fatal in this disease, as I read in Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center literature. The next thing I want to mention is, the price you pay for this book is the cost of printing this book. I just rounded off the pennies of the cost figure provided by the publisher, to make it a lucky number. The number .38 means being alive and thriving. I am a physician specialing in cancer treatment. That is: I am an ocologist. For the last 10 years before my retirement. I "preached" lifestyle interventions to my cancer patients, in addition to them receiving standard treatments. I hoped to treat them better. I did not have much expectations in life-style-change ended up controlling cancer in the beginning. Why, simply, cancer is a hell lot of a disease. You don't expect little things like exercise, which is one of the seven life-style interventions, could do much against this devilish disease, isn't it? But to my big surprise, patients with bad cancers that were expected to survive abut 1 or 2 year. Instead, they survived 3, 5, and 7 years. And it was most of them! I was exhilarated. Patients and families were happy. They were smiling. Can you imagine a person with "terminal" cancer, or their family, smiling genuinely? But, after all, a few more years is a few more years. My once sad oncologist life was turned into an acceptable one. I thrived and got the highest rating. Thanks. MY oncologist life used to be a sad one. For more than 30 years I was sad all the time inside, but now I am a happy oncologist. I would love to work till the day I die. But there was something more important. There was another calling. All the cancer patients in the world may not have known this cancer-fighting weapon they can pick up and work miracles. In the web world one can access Google or others, and find millions of ways to fight cancer, as one can read. What is the real thing? As a cancer survivor and a cancer specialist, I know. My patients' case- histories assured me of what really can beat cancer. So I reluctantly retired, though it was already beyond my retirement age - just to write books to help prevent cancer recurrence. I was reluctant, for I loved my cancer patients, and enjoyed treating them. But I have to do it. This is a higher calling. If you hesitate to believe that simple lifestyle interventions could help you prevent a good cancer from coming back, I understand. Good cancer coming back? Yes. Good cancers do come back, given time. Though the chance is small. Even stage zero breast cancers can come back by 20% or 30% chance. Stage zero here is ductal breast cancer in situ. No recurrence! Unbelievable. But I searched my memory hard, I really don't remember even a single case of a good breast cancer that ever recurred. It does not seem real. Could it be I am getting senile? No, that is what the impression I have. I am smiling on this fond memory. Moderate amount of exercise is one of the 7 lifestyle interventions I emphasized in this book. How powerful is it? Two major studies showed it prevented cancer by 40-60%. It also prevented cancer recurrence. Hail to these two big studies from major US universities. They have costed more than two hundred million dollars. It is worth every single penny. There are other similar studies showing the same percentage caner prevention for different cancers, just doing simple exercise like walking. There are studies from all over the world confirming that. With this said. I hope you would benefit from it. God bless. This Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The journey from a poor starving boy in Communist China to finally becoming an elite physician in the US was a hard and long journey. What made this journey successful, so I was finally made "elite" by patients? What can I teach youngsters, so they'll be successful in the future? This book tells them my life-story including successes, failures, principles and personal philosophies that happened along the way to build 57 teachings that made my final goal come true. These 57 teachings (advice) are from episodes of my life experiences in starving childhood in China, the sufferings of patients in Hong Kong that shaped my goal of a lifetime, and the fun with climbing mountains, and in the warm sea of Hong Kong. And in US, tips including memory techniques for intensive studies in college years with fulltime day job, and medical schools' fun in learning, and clinical and research settings and medical centers in NY and California where I raced with dolphins in San Francisco Bay in my sailboat. It was also in California that a hiker was made going backwards for one and a half hour by a mountain lioness. The lioness ran away when he threw a stone, why? Through thick and thin, these teachings guided my ways. These teachings brought me the successful life just said. It will benefit youngsters.Incorporating these as teenagers grow, would most likely make them elites in the future.So, this is a story of toughing it out to succeed. This is also a story of careful clinical detective works to find the complete cure of cancers with cure rate close to 100% vs conventional of 70%. It sounded profound but it is not.In the end, I think preventions and cures of cancers are plainly simple. It is easy for everyone who read this book to do. Readers will probably all agree with this at the end of this book. It is easy to believe the miracle-like, yet simple things to keep cancers out of our life. Believers will probably turn saviors for half a billion people in the world who will die of recurrent cancers unless saved by our readers and their computers or cell phones. The book will explain why that is.The above sounds dry and academic. But it is anything but. The story begins with our enviable life when I was 1 to 4 years old. But due to the Communist revolution in China in 1949, we were made poor overnight and treated like animals under the communist regime. The many sad events will make men with iron hearts cry. Then how we narrowly escaped a certain death with my smart mom saving us all. We escaped to Hong Kong. Few years prior, our father had the Communist army's bullets flying over his head, and escaped to Hong Kong, and quickly left for Cuba, a capitalist nation then.Among that chaos, hardships, starvations, walking 10 miles a day in the bustling city of Hong Kong to go to high school, rain or shine, my spirit prevailed.Finally, through observations in my internal medicine years, when some resident doctors died falling asleep in their cars due to fatigue from over-working due to new HIV diseases, but the observations gave me the hint cancer starts when our immune system is weak as in AIDS patients. The rest of my medical oncology (cancer specialist doctor) career was the proving ground for theory of restoring the immune system beating cancers, meeting my goal of curing curable cancers 100% vs only 70%. The 30% life-lost was due to cancers coming back, which this book tells the ways to prevent cancers from coming back in the real world. That was the final goal I met. But I did not dare to believe it till Nostradamus from the Balkans woke me up and said, yes, cancer is cured 100%. The last chapter summarized the clinical detective story. And the next to last chapters list all 57 teachings with explanations for easy reference.I think readers will cry first, then get exci Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
