It is a similiar theme to the previous book but much more practical with lots of recipes etc. There is a good informative review on the amazon site Can you please let people know. Many thanks. Very Best Wishes, Jane Plant http://www.amazon.co.uk Amazon.co.uk Review The Plant Programme Aug 9 2001 Bestselling author of the ground-breaking book Your Life in Your Hands now brings us The Plant Programme, a collection of recipes to fight breast and prostate cancer. Plant developed breast cancer in 1987 and as a scientist was frustrated by the lack of answers on why cancer develops--and what we can do to cure and prevent it. She discovered one fact that she couldn't ignore--that 1 in 10 women in the UK will develop breast cancer whereas the incidence in China is just 1 in 10 thousand. From this she went on to study the links between lifestyle and diet and made some controversial recommendations-- most notably to avoid all kinds of dairy produce and adopt a largely vegan diet. The Plant Programme is a collection of recipes and dietary advice that follows this approach. To start off, the principles behind the diet are re-explained and a shopping list of ingredients is given. The main body of the book contains recipes for everyday eating --including snacks and meals that will suit kids and the rest of the family. Without exception, these are simple, quite quick to prepare and though there are no illustrations, highly appetising. Those cautious about the absence of dairy needn't feel apprehensive-- you really don't notice it. Mediterranean and Asian dishes feature prominently, with recipes such as Couscous with Rocket, Chicken and Pine Nuts, Sweet Potato and Coconut Soup or Stir-Fried Cauliflower, Zucchini and Fennel. Even the more virtuous ingredients such as tofu and lentils are made delicious through liberal use of fresh herbs and spices. And the recipes for smoothies, cookies and desserts (such as Orange and Almond Cake) will have the rest of the family keen to tuck in with you. Readers of Your Life in Your Hands will know exactly how exciting Jane Plant's research has been to anyone concerned about cancer. Here though, she and Gill Tidey have scored a major success in translating this scientific knowledge into a collection of easy recipes that can be enjoyed on a daily basis by the whole family. This is a positive and much needed book that will empower all those affected by this cruel disease.-- O'Connor From the Publisher This is Jane Plant's second book; her first, 'Your Life in Your Hands', has now been published in Great Britain, the United States, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Spain, Germany, and will shortly be appearing in France, Italy, Greece, and Scandinavia. Her message is one of hope for millions of sufferers of breast and prostate cancer. Through her own experience of breast cancer, and with her scientific knowledge to help her, she has clearly demonstrated a link between diet and breast and prostate cancer in a way which has convinced thousands of people. Given that people have accepted the link between smoking and lung cancer, it's surprising that there is resistance to accepting Jane's research and analysis now-- that your lifestyle can affect your wellbeing. However for all those people who have accepted that view, then Jane's second book, full of delicious and healthy recipes, will continue to aid them in their battle against these diseases. Jane provides ideas for dinner parties as well as simple meals; and aims a lot of the book at teenagers as well as adults. Her recipes are not demanding or difficult but straightforward and tasty. For those looking for something else to help them, after reading 'Your Life in Your Hands', 'The Plant Programme' is the next step in combating and overcoming breast and prostate cancer. From the Author Jane Plant writes: After my first book Your Life in Your Hands was published I was inundated with requests for further help - especially what to eat and what not to eat. Clearly there was a need for a book to help people understand more about non-dairy healthy eating but in a simple attractive format such as a cookbook. I was an adequate cook but certainly not of a standard to write the sort of inspirational book I thought was needed to show how delicious healthy food can be. I therefore invited Gill to work on the book with me. I have known Gill for some time and have always admired her ability to produce delicious meals apparently effortlessly. She has lived and worked abroad for much of her life and learnt to cook a tremendous range of meals. She is particularly good at Asian cooking which is important in producing a book targeted at breast and prostate cancer sufferers since these diseases are so rare there. We had tremendous fun writing the book and even more tasting and eating the meals prepared from it. We worked as a team with Gill devising recipes while I checked to ensure we used ingredients which there was no evidence of carcinogenicity. I also did more research on ingredients with anti-cancer properties and many are included in the meals in the book. Since we started on the book I have been using the recipes to make lots of delicious meals for family and friends and receive lots of compliments about my cooking! I hope you too will enjoy the benefits of learning to cook delicious healthy meals. Gill Tidey writes: I was delighted when Jane asked me to work on The Plant Programme with her. I had really enjoyed reading Your Life in Your Hands and knew from friends wiht cancer how much it had helped them. As a geologist myself I have known for some time how much Jane is respected as a scientist. Working with her on the new book, I have realised how much she knows about food chemistry - her hobby and how thorough she is in checking the facts. Also how good she is at spotting the voice of vested interest. I have always cooked simple, tasty Asian style meals but not until working with Jane did I give up dairy completely. Since adopting The Plant Programme my family say they have never eaten better or felt healthier. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Jane on this book which I believe will make a real contribution to people's health. ******************************************************* http://www.nottinghamcity.gov.uk/ngp/climate.htm HELP FOR LOCAL BUSINESSES Free Energy Site Audits can be organised by Nottingham Energy Partnership, to show where you have potential to save money.
