When national food writer and cookbook author David Ricketts was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2001, he became a member of the "reluctant brotherhood" forced to make life-altering decisions to beat this life-threatening disease. After surgery, Ricketts used his journalistic skills to research the food and lifestyle changes that can help prevent and slow the growth of prostate cancer, which is expected to affect a record 250,000 men in 2005. The result is "Eat to Beat Prostate Cancer Cookbook", an everyday eating guide for guys that optimizes prostate cancer-fighting foods and eliminates foods believed to contribute to cancer. The book features 200 recipes from snacks, drinks, and sandwiches to main course meals. Ricketts' personal experience brings a human and supportive "been there" perspective to a health problem that is emerging as the "disease of the moment" as the PSA, a simple blood test, leads to early diagnosis in younger men.

Trade 5. Etat : Fine. First Printing. 336 Pages Indexed. Prostate cancer is now the most common nonskin cancer among men in the United States. In 2005 alone, 250,000 new cases were diagnosed, and that number is certain to rise with each passing year. No one is more aware of this than David Ricketts, experienced cookbook author and recent prostate cancer survivor. Shortly after surgery and radiation treatments, Ricketts began to research food and lifestyle changes that might inhibit the likelihood of prostate cancer as well as its progression. The result is this uniquely specific cookbook, which takes full advantage of foods thought to fight prostate cancer while eliminating those believed to contribute to the disease. Eat to Beat Prostate Cancer Cookbook features more than 200 delicious recipes for everything from snacks, sandwiches, and drinks to main-course dishes-all foods that will appeal to the entire family. This tremendously useful book also benefits from the author's firsthand experience, as he offers insight into what to expect regarding diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer, as well as practical advice for making the transition to healthier cooking, smarter eating, and a longer life.
