Breast Cancer? Breast Health!: The Wise Woman Way (Wise Woman Herbal)

the information in this book in essential for everyone. We all know someone who has been affected by cancer, Susun Weed is sound on the science and gives common sense advice on how to lower our risk of being growing cancer cells. this book is full of advice on breast health and helping anyone who has a diagnosis of cancer. I can not rate this book more highly. I think everyone should read it.

I have a couple of Susun Weeds books and this one did not disappoint. It is really well written and full of great advice and natural remedies. A great read and antidote to modern medical approaches.

Very informative. Good read. Condition of book as described. Very happy with purchase.

Happy with my purchase!

From the moment I began reading Breast Cancer? Breast Health! I didn't want to put it down. I've read some of Susan Weed's other work and I love her voice. Her realistic and straight forward point of view is familiar and comforting, characteristics I believe could be very much helpful for women reading this book because they have been given the breast cancer diagnosis. Though some of the herbal remedies I was familiar with and agree with, Weed's take on chemotherapy, radiation and surgery as a cancer remedy is what I most identified with. Weed sees these actions as options in the course of healing, not as givens. I am in full agreement and I'm of the belief that people have been taught one avenue when it comes to cancer - kill it. I don't believe in "killing" cancer. I believe that cancer, and any disease, is the body calling attention to something that wants to be healed. With that I see that breast cancer calls to cells that need healing, compassion, and love - not killing, fights, battles, or harsh and often invasive treatment. Weed discusses similar in the book. Though the book was written in 1996, it is a fantastic reference manual for herbalist and layman alike, as well as, mentor in a way for women with breast cancer. However, I would love to see an updated version with more recent statistics and research. With that, it is complete with glossary, references, Materia Medica, and recipes - the book didn't disappoint! From herbal wisdom, to emotional encouragement, to scientific statistics, to knowledgeable perspective Breast Cancer? Breast Health! gives readers an insight into breast cancer not often seen and opens up an entirely different path of healing than does allopathic medicine. I would encourage every woman to read this book and every person to try the Garlic Toast Country Style recipe which has turned into a favorite breakfast addition for me!

I am a breast cancer survivor and wish I had found this book a couple of years ago. It is very empowering to read and and encourages women to take control of their own health and wellness. Once you get in the medical system, it's easy to feel victimized and over your head. Medical people try to scare you into treatments and drugs that may not be in your best interest. Ladies you need to educate yourself and learn how to care for and nourish your own body. This will go a long way in keeping us all out of harm's way within the medical establishment. Susun Weed stresses the importance of nutrition and self-care as a means to staying well, as well as not being afraid of your own body. (Many of us are, I think). This is a great resource for any woman, especially those with breast cancer - or who think they might get it -- and that could be virtually everyone! Recommend very highly.

This book has something for everyone, even if you are not into alternative methods of healing. While going through radiation for stage 1 breast cancer, I found Susan Weeds book to be very helpful. It made me feel optimistic about doing other things to heal along with the radiation. For instance, she suggested eating miso soup after each treatment to counteract the poisons in the radiation and helped me to see the radiation working on the cancer and not on the rest of me. I felt so encouraged by this book, that I ordered one for a neighbor/friend who recently discovered she has stage 2 cancer and will also have to have chemotherapy. It made me feel good to give her a copy.

Used book that I received and I paid the full price wowww
