The shame about David Servan-Schreiber's book 'Anticancer' is that if you don't have cancer, you're unlikely to read it.
It's a shame because the book's recommendations for lifestyle changes apply to everyone, whether you're battling cancer or not.
Besides, everyone has cancer cells and everyone is bombarded with carcinogenes, so it behooves us to do all we can to protect our health in the face of these internal and external threats.

So, I find myself picking this book up again for the same womp womp reasons that have precluded me from reading The Fault in Our Stars. (view spoiler)[I'm not going to get too real with you guys here, 'cause some things need to remain personal and I don't do 'feelz' very well so no more *sad trombone noises* (hide spoiler)] You know what's strange? This is actually one of my favorite books. I enjoyed it so much that I carry a copy on my phone in addition to having the...more

I can't begin to tell all that this book meant to me during my cancer fight. I stumbled across it a few days after my diagnosis. I wasn't looking for a cancer book. Yet, it changed my life.
This book showed me that I can do things to stay healthy, despite doctors saying there's nothing I could do. I still had to do six rounds of chemotherapy and surgery but this book still gave me valuable information and I think helped me stay alive.
The book follows Dr. Servan-Schreiber's story of his own 'accid...more

Color me dubious. The further I read into this book, the more skeptical I became--which is a shame, because Dr Servan-Schreiber with his unique perch as physician, research scientist and cancer patient would, I thought, be the perfect person to sift the solid science from wishful thinking and outright quackery but...

READ THIS BOOK EVEN IF YOU DON'T HAVE CANCER! It absolutely changed my life. I refer to it as my 'bible' and there are marks, bookmarks, tags, underlines, notes etc. all that I've added myself. Thankfully, my good friend gave me the most current edition with new research on CELL PHONE use. I don't have children myself, but I do have an 18 month niece who I adore in every way, shape and form, and I have told my brother and his wife to keep the cell phone AWAY from her.

Please: Save yourself four years scouring Medline and buy this book. Four years is approximately the amount of time it took for me to find about half of the scientific literature in this book. Later, if anyone says 'But there's no scientific evidence that you can fight cancer naturally!' you'll be armed with a tome of evidence to the contrary.
The author is a straddler, and I admit I'm partial to straddlers. His expertise and experience have made him someone who comfortably straddles the worlds o...more

An amazing book that is full of fascinating FACTS based on scientific studies on ways to boost your immunity and fight off cancer with foods, changes in your immediate environment, and by enhancing the health of your mind-body connection. There are many things you can do that will make a difference in your odds of getting cancer and surviving it. After the author's own bout with brain cancer, he went searching for non-pharmaceutical things he could do to make a difference for himself and his out...more

One of the best books I have ever read fiction or non-fiction! It is not just about avoiding cancer or leading a healthy life but it is about living and dying. Although the book talks a lot of about scientific research that has been done to support his recommendations which are incredibly interesting, it is also a very compassionate book that is written from the heart. The author is an accomplished MD and Ph.D. who talks about his family, life and experiences living with brain cancer for 19 year...more

AN IMPORTANT BOOK FOR PRACTITIONERS IN HEALTH AND PSYCHOLOGY! This book is so well written, and it has a great amount of research data included in an easy to read narrative style. I applaud Dr Servan for this very helpful book contribution in understanding the immune system and how it effects our health and well-being. I was particularly interested in his conclusion from medical studies that the ability to keep one's emotional state in balance and stress-free is also important to aid the immune...more

Learned a lot about how to eat better. Here is the list I made based on advice from the book.
Green Tea – has to steep 10 min and be drunk within an hour
Agave nectar – (reduce white sugar, honey, brown sugar, maple syrup)
Olive oil – 1 tablespoon a day, don’t bring to smoke point (bad if used at high heat)
Spices - Turmeric – has to be mixed with a generous pinch of black pepper and olive oil (add agave nectar to remove slightly bitter taste). Rosemary, Thyme, Oregano, Basil, Mint, Parsley, Ginger,...more

I love this book. I was already obsessed with learning about food, so I knew a lot of what was in here, but now that I'm fighting with my husband against his disease, I'm more than motivated to know what foods (and other issues) help and hurt the healing (and cancer-prevention) process. I've not eaten meat for almost two months, save for fish, and although I doubt I'll ever announce myself a vegetarian, I won't be surprised if I never eat meat again. This book is fantastic. Whether or not you ha...more

I try to be sparing with my FIVE STAR ratings, but this is certainly the most important book I read in 2009 and maybe in the past five years.
This book is for you if you've battled cancer, know someone who has, or it is a part of your family tree - in other words this book is for everyone.
DSS has an amazing story (brain cancer survivor), incredible background (neuropyschiatrist, MD, PHD), and very strong pen. This book does three things that are so vital in today's society of ever-increasing canc...more

This book was recommended to me by the breast cancer case manager I work with who was treated for an aggressive breast cancer herself six or seven years ago. She said she got a lot out of this book and that many of her patients have, too.
I liked that the author provides scientific evidence to support his recommendations, but with a healthy dose of pragmatism. I think he very fairly marries conventional medical treatment with how diet, nutrition, stress management, and exercise have the potentia...more

Wonderful, comprehensive with medical studies to back it up. Beginning with the biology of cancer itself, helping the layperson understand what's happening in our bodies when/how cancer is present and what we can do to prevent and/or compliment a western medical treatment protocol. I especially loved the section on the mind-body connection but wish he would have talked about Eastern medicine (herbs and acupuncture). The most valuable section of the book for me is on diet and this is one reason i...more

Anticancer had a lot of good information in it, but was also full of pretension and bizarre & irrelevant stories about the author's ex-wives. I can't recommend it as a good reading experience. So here's a summary tailored for people interested in breast cancer.
The main message is that cancer is a chronic disease influenced heavily by the environment and lifestyle. Although mainstream western medicine is excellent at treating acute problems, it terrible at preventing and treating chronic prob...more

I'm sure I never would have been motivated to read this unless I'd had breast cancer this year, but that's probably true for many people who pick up a book with this title. The book was actually given to me by the lady who cleans my house. She is Brazilian and had heard of it, and when she gave it to me, early on in my chemo treatment, I put it aside, promising to myself that I would read it some day. Now I'm at the stage where I'm facing the 'what next' in this illness, and I finally picked up...more

The nutritional advice in this book is a step in the right direction, but frustrating because a. the 'science' behind it consists mostly of epidemiological intuitions even though there is much more interesting science to be found, b. the author pulls his punches when it comes to dietary recommendations (inveighing against non-organic animal products but seeing organic as healthy, which they aren't), and c. (connected to a.) he seems to have missed pretty much all research into plant-based (vegan...more

David Servan-Schreiber grew up in Paris. He became a doctor and scientist at the University of Pittsburgh. One day, his research subject failed to show up, so he volunteered to have a brain scan as part of the research study he was conducting with his colleagues. To his surprise,
he himself, discovered that he had brain cancer. And so begins a unique story - Schreiber's own journey through cancer as a young, budding d...more

Beautifully written motivator to improve your lifestyle habits and your life overall. If nothing else, you’ll end up drinking more green tea. Better yet, you’ll also focus on relieving stress, exercising more, reducing environmental pollutants, reducing body fat, and eating more cruciferous veggies, mushrooms, garlic, whole plant foods, and omega 3s and less sugar, refined carbs, pesticides, and animal fats. While that sounds really dry and not so motivational, this book is incredibly moving. It...more

This book was selected by my book club and at first I was reluctant to read it. My mother had passed away from pancreatic cancer the previous month and I didn't even want to think about cancer, much less read about what she might have done to prevent it or lengthened her life. But I eventually began reading it and was inspired by it to make some changes in our lifestyle. This is not the first book I have read on this topic of changing diet, exercise and the existence of a mind-body connection bu...more

This is a great book. The cover says all of us have cancer cells in our bodies (something my husband who does genetic sequencing informatics had also told me), but not all of us will develop cancer. The Action Pages near the end of the book offer concrete, practical advice for the lifestyle that can prevent 60% of cancers. Yes, eat more fruits and vegetables, but no they don't all have to be raw to keep their inflammation-fighting, immunity-boosting properties (eating foods raw preserves enzymes...more

Another cancer book that I would recommend to anyone who wants to live a healthier lifestyle. The author is a physician who found out he himself had brain cancer by accident while working on clinical trials. This chronicles his journey and how his own diagnosis changed the way he conducted his research, and eventually his life. It advocates a holistic approach but the nutrition stuff is actually backed up by hard science. It's not a self-help book, but he does touch on the subject of how such a...more

Even though I have read a lot of this information elsewhere it is always nice to find validation in alternative treatments from someone whose background originates the traditional side of medicine. I look forward to the day when traditional medicine embraces alternative ideas. With the two teams working together that would create the optimal healthcare experience IMO. This was easy to read and contained valid and useful information for everybody - not just cancer survivors (or as I like to be ca...more

As a doctor himself, David managed to write this book in the tone a human being. It does not barrage readers with scientific terms and ongoing lists of anticancer properties as the title of the book may suggest.
I picked up this book not because of any serious illnesses, touch wood, but to want to lead a healthy life. I think David achieved the goal here, to introduce holistically the variety of things that can foster a healthy life for anyone under any circumstances, including the worst such as...more

It would be false to say I read the entire book because I only skimmed it; it got me anxious about the world as a minefield of toxins. I was thinking I would need to replace cleaning products, cosmetics, cotton swabs, etc. I talked to the neurologist friend of mine who recommended the book, and he said that if I drink juice from organic produce and avoid processed foods, I'm in the 100th percentile. That's what I am doing. Juicing is time consuming but worth it (now I want juice, so that makes i...more

I came for a book that was allegedly reflecting on the current state of the science of cancer, and assumed the memoir part was related to this. Spoiler: It wasn't. If I wanted to read a memoir by some rich wanker talking about his expensive lifestyle, gorgeous and intelligent Russian girlfriend, and all his neurosurgeon friends, I'd look for a book that was clearly a memoir about some rich wanker and his gorgeous and intelligent Russian girlfriend etc.

This is a borderline 5 star for me. I have seen first hand the power of all that David has addressed in this book and I believe more people especially in our western world need to be aware of the power of our diet, environment, and mental state. I disagree with a few of his dietary suggestions ( canola oil is definitely off my list) but so much of what he is writing rings true. I also love his perspective as a scientist and dr and why most doctors are so oblivious to what ‘terrain’ can offer pat...more

This book talked a lot about the mind influence over cancer. How traumatic events in our life can affect the healing of our body. There are many things that help heal diseases. Our outlook on the situation as well as holding past events and not releasing them can hold us back.
