Book Synopsis
A ground-breaking, evidence-based nutrition plan designed to reduce breast cancer risk, manage your weight, and transform the way you think about the power of food.According to the American Cancer Society, 1 in 8 American women will get breast cancer in their lifetimes. This year alone, an estimated 330,800 women will find out they have breast cancer.
The right nutrition choices could reduce many of these cases. The American Institute of Cancer Research estimates that one third of cancer cases could be reduced if women eat more healthfully, reduce excess weight, and increase physical activity. Survival rates would also improve drastically!
To help in this fight, dietitian nutritionist and best-selling author Rachel Beller has crafted SpiceRack as an action plan for losing excess body weight and reducing cancer risk using the same evidence-based techniques she uses with her A-list Hollywood celebrity clients. The recipes are simple, enjoyable, and creative, and they're designed to help women of all ages live a happier, healthier, and empowered life.
No fads or fasting--SpiceRack is based on real science and delivers meals that are designed to be satisfying. Many cancer health books are clinically stiff and cold, offering unrealistic or time-consuming interventions. SpiceRack celebrates food and health with Rachel's easy-to-follow explanations, hands-on style, and clear graphics. Rachel knows from her work helping women fight breast cancer and achieve optimal health that a boring diet is worthless. We all want to live longer, but we also want to (and need to!) enjoy the ride.
SpiceRack will take you through the simple, all-in-one Beller Method, including Rachel's 10 Nutrition Commandments for losing excess weight and reducing cancer risk:
- Discover the Power of Spicing
- Consider the Weight Connection
Fiber Up and Diversify - Strike a Sugar Balance
Veg Out - Go Pro with Premium Proteins
Get an Oil Change - Power Up Your Pantry
Reconsider that Drink - Feel Empowered
