This book presents the most up-to-date information on the effects of nutrition and food on cancer prevention
and management. The book will provide clinicians and other healthcare practitioners with an educational
source on how to educate cancer patients and their families on nutrition and dietary during cancer
treatment. Recent nutritional epidemiology studies have occasionally produced controversial or unexpected
results and highlight the need for additional research on diet and cancer risk. Chapters within the book
focus among others on the role of natural antioxidants in cancer, the importance of micronutrients in cancer
prevention and nutritional genomics and their role in cancer prevention.
By familiarizing readers with the latest developments in this complex field, the book offers a valuable
resource for scientists, clinicians and students alike.
