I had always meant to do a blog on this topic but it is quite daunting so in the past I have skirted around the edges with blogs on coconut oil, mushrooms, gluten, ghee, olive oil and more. A recent podcast by Dr Geo Espinosa is a great introduction for anyone starting out. It is by no means comprehensive and lots I'd love to add but he manages to get loads into the 38 minutes.
One interesting aspect which I have touched on previously in this blog is around the Keto Diet. I have several excellent books on this but have so far remained unconvinced that it is right for prostate cancer - Dr Geo agrees as do a number of other authorities. However it may well be useful for other cancers and certainly cutting back on carbs seems to be a good thing for many of us.
The introductory resource I like for cancer in general is the Rainbow Diet - one study shows that, with a healthy diet, stage III cancer patients could reduce risk of cancer returning by 31% and reduce death by 42% across the following seven years.

I will also repost a blog I wrote for Yes to Life after getting voters from Wigwam Cancer Support Group members on their favourite nutrition books.
