Dr. Gaynor's Cancer Prevention Program
Dr. Gaynor's Cancer Prevention Program Publisher: Kensington Pub Corp; (January 1999) By: Mitchell L. Gaynor, Jerry Hickey, William Fryer |
Dr. Gaynor's book is a bold breakthrough in the field of cancer prevention. His excellent book details at great length the individual foods and nutrients which may prevent cancer and individualizes for the major cancers. Dr. Gaynor practices what he preaches. As a highly respected New York Cancer doctor, he practices the cutting edge of conventional medicine with the very best or preventive medicine. A must on everyone's medical bookshelf.
If prevention is worth a pound of cure, this book is worth its weight in gold. Dr. Gaynor's book offers some of the best current potential for reducing the terrible price we pay for cancer. At last we have a roadmap, beautifully documented, by a nationally renowned oncologist, that details the increasing amount of evidence that proves that diet offers enormous potential in reducing as well as preventing cancer risk and in cutting cancer deaths. Although we still do not know how to prevent all cancers, this book clearly demonstrates that we know more than enough to dramatically reduce the high cancer incidence rates that we currently have and to curb the growing cancer rates around the world. With the publication of this book, there can be no doubt that nutrition in cancer prevention has come to age. Kudos to Dr. Gaynor and Jerry Hickey for this magnificent book.  |

Green Tea: Fight Cancer, Lower Cholesterol, Live Publisher: Woodland Publishing By: Kate Gilbert Udall (April 1998) |
| This is less a book than an informative pamphlet. Look at the price and number of pages; this is a VERY slim volume on the health properties of green tea. If you want to have a reference book for yourself or for clients(perhaps you are a holistic health provider) then this book is excellent. For recipes, more in-depth information, however, this book is just too condensed. In short, the basics, a good reference, the facts, just the facts, ma'am.

All About Green Tea Publisher: Avery Penguin Putnam; 1st edit By: Victoria Dolby Toews, et al (Jan 15, 1998) |
| Why is green tea one of the world's most healthful drinks? This indispensable new addition to the series that answers this and other frequently asked questions - FAQ's - about nutritional supplements. If you are a health provider (holistic or otherwise) this is a good reference for your patients. It is longer than the Udall Green Tea book and about the same price, which means you can buy it for your office at a small investment (if these books tend to "walk" away, you won't be out too many bucks.) Green tea is also recommended by many natural food experts to substitute for coffee in the diet, or for black tea. (Macrobiotic diets recommend kukicha, a form of green tea from the twigs of the tea bush; the Eat Right For Your Type diet of Dr. D'Adamo recommends green tea for those who are adversely affected by black tea.)For the deep history, ceremony and culinary aspects of tea, you'd be better off with a different volume. But for facts on the health-giving properties of green tea, this is a fine reference.

Chemistry and Applications of Green Tea Publisher: CRC Press By: Takehiko Yamamoto (Editor), et al (July 31, 1997) |
| For the reader with a scientific bent, this 160 page hardback contains a wealth of information gleaned from extensive studies by Japanese scientists. Not for the general reader, this book is nevertheless an important contribution to our knowledge of the chemical interactions between the human body and the compounds found in green tea. Being a Japanese production, the green tea referred to in particular studies is Japanese green tea, however the results are applicable to all green teas. Includes some color plates, among them a cross-section of a rats tooth showing the beneficial effects of green tea in inhibiting tooth decay! The book was published in 1997 and includes such fascinating topics as Chapter 5 "Cancer Chemoprevention by Green Tea Polyphenols", and Chapter 13 "Green Tea Extract as a Remedy for Diarrhea in Farm Raised Calves" - in other words, everything you always wanted to know about green tea but were afraid to ask!

Green Tea Health Benefits and Applications Publisher: Marcel Dekker By: Yukihiko Hara (February 15, 2001) |
| Twenty scientific papers trace the results of studies conducted over the past two decades by Hara, now a vice president of Tokyo Food Techno Co. Ltd., and other researchers. The book deals primarily with the health benefits of tea polyphenols--in particular, tea catechins, which are the major component of fresh tea leaves and the element that gives green tea its pungency. Papers review the biosynthesis and fermentation processes in green and black teas, analyze effective methods for extracting tea polyphenols, and investigate the cancer-fighting and other beneficial properties of tea.
