The Answer to Cancer: Is Never Giving It a Chance to Start by Hari Sharma, James G. Meade and Rama K. Mishra is written in a lighthearted and comfortably way. Simple recommendations from Ayurveda, translated as the science of life or life span, are made to increase immunity in the body by igniting the fires of digestion at breakfast time, enhancing digestion and elimination, balancing and adjusting the diet, adding strategies to detoxify the body, and re-enlivening a youthful enthusiasm and joy for life. The authors continue with discussing ideas to improve and enhance sleep, to rejuvenate the body and mind through Yoga (yoga postures are sketched along with instructions on how to perform them) and to walk daily. They progress onto state of the art herbal combinations and behavioral recommendations to improve the value of one's interactions with people throughout the day. Finally, they continue with recommending a highly researched meditation program for developing greater mental and physical potential and at the end of the book they discuss the inspiring origins of Ayurveda.
