If you believe that breast cancer can't be prevented — the rather fatalistic you'll either get it or you won’t approach — then this book should make you think again.

It’s written by Dr Michelle Harvie, the UK's only research dietician for breast cancer prevention, whose groundbreaking studies have revealed that although around 10 per cent of breast cancer is hereditary, lifestyle — that's diet and exercise — has a real impact on most breast cancers. It includes a four-week meal plan, simple recipes and nutritional advice on each dish.

Based on actual clinical trials this book really can help prevent breast cancer and as a bonus all royalties go towards research carried out by Genesis, the breast cancer prevention charity.
