Amazon.co.uk Review
It was as if she was being stalked by a supernaturally evil killer that, however many times was vanquished, relentlessly kept coming back to attack. The fourth time the breast cancer re-occurred, Jane Plant felt like giving up: "The chill realisation hit me that it wasn't going to let me go until it had claimed my life," she says in her book Your Life In Your Hands. But Plant didn't give up. Instead, tapping into her scientific training, she set about trying to find a rational reason for the breast cancer.

In the UK, one woman in ten is likely to contract the disease. In China, breast cancer affects one woman in 10,000. It was this startling statistical disparity that led Plant to believe there had to be a dietary trigger for the disease. As she continued her scientific investigations, Plant became convinced she had discovered a causal link between dairy produce and breast cancer.

While Your Life In Your Hands contains hard science to back its claims, Plant manages to spell out the science in a way that is easy for the uninitiated to understand. Plant's research is solid and the evidence is compelling.

As well as telling the remarkable story of one woman's determination to overcome breast cancer, Your Life In Your Hands offers no-nonsense advice on how to deal with doctors, self-examination and coping with treatment. The book also includes Plant's own non-dairy diet: The Plant Programme--The Lifestyle Factors. Plant's tenacious spirit will inspire you. Her findings will surprise you. And her book will empower you to fight against the odds.--Christopher Kelly

1 out of 5 stars False statements   March 3, 2010
Gatto (London, UK)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

I am very disappointed with this book. I was very much looking forward to reading it particularly after having read Amazon review stating "Miraculously, her cancer started to subside" after starting a diary free diet. However "Miraculously, her cancer started to subside" is a FALSE statement. As stated in the book the author underwent chemotherapy treatment and the cancer responded very well to it. Unfortunately many cancer patients are not so lucky, for such patients reading this book can be very detrimental and discouraging. Nonetheless it is a good story of a woman's determination to beat cancer.

For scientific based and objective/true statements, I would recommend readers to buy "Anticancer A New Way of Life" by Prof David Servan-Schreiber and "Foods to Fight Cancer" by Prof. Richard Béliveau and Denis Gingras.



4 out of 5 stars Your Life in Your Hands   February 15, 2010

The book, recommended to me by a Nutritionalist is a big book,some 500 pages.

I have by know means read it in its entirety. It offers professional experience by Prof Jane Plant on the subject of the specific cancers of the book title. Information includes, information on causes of cancer, nutritional benefts, diet, vitamins & suppliments, life changing health recommendations, case studies, statistics, world cancer studies, etc:

In all very comprehensive book that one can pick up & put down, and I have already recommended the book to a friend who had major surgery and treatment last year & is intolerent to many foods.

I am a practising Christian and can also recommend "Makers Diet" for nutritional and spiritual content.



4 out of 5 stars The Farming Industry are poisoning us for good profits   November 13, 2009
Mr. N. F. J. Allum (Herefordshire,UK.)
Its depressing to read how much pollution is added to our food and how long used products are not suitable for long term use by normal human beings and how farmers rally round to protect their interests.My wife and I are now Vegans which avoids the specific problems high lighted in this book,but are on the watch for further problems which official opinion says are not significant.

The book, actually the books I should say, because I've ordered two of the same) arrived in mint condition. One of them had a plastic cover on the other had a bookmark as a bonus. They were well packed and delivered on time.


5 out of 5 stars Great Book   November 2, 2009
Mrs. Alison L. Hayyez (Guildford UK)
This book has some fantastic and essential information for all of us not just
cancer sufferers. I would recommend anyone that value's their health to read it.
It is a must for anyone that is suffering from breast, prostate or other forms
of cancer that Jane mentions in her book. IT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE!
