“When you have cancer, what you eat is one of the few things you can control. As a scientist by training and foodie by nature I wanted to get into the science of nutrition for people like me. I was surprised how little was out there, and how often found myself standing in supermarket isles with piles of books and medical journals trying to understand what I should eat.
So, with the help of doctors, nutritionists and chefs , I created this wholesome cookbook to bring together science, wellness and my passion for food. We’ve done the research so you don’t have to, and in a way that helps anyone, cancer or not, cook really delicious food that does you good. Hopefully it can inspire you and help you eat and live well! I’ve also thrown in some physical and mental ‘tricks and tips’ I picked up along my journey. Enjoy.” – Freyja

The cookbook
We have all heard about superfoods, but why are they ‘super’ and how can you easily incorporate them into your daily diet?
This is not just a cookbook, it is a library of resources on how to eat and live well.
Developed by a cancer survivor and foodie fed up of spending hours trying to work out what to eat to keep healthy, especially with cancer, this book is a result of eight years of continual research and iteration.
Contributors include doctors, nutritionists, chefs and leading lights in related fields, such as Tim Smit, founder of the Eden Project.
The result is a collection of over 100 recipes for delicious meals and drinks that both do good and taste good (like really really good!). It also contains other nuggets of information about living well and feeling okay when faced with terminal disease.
From the Author, Freyja Hanstein: “Our surroundings affect how we feel as much as the food that we consume, and the salubrious choices we make in the mental, physical and nutritional parts of our lives, all interact and nourish our health“.
This book is Freyja’s way of sharing all she learned on a journey that combined science, wellbeing and sublime flavours – to help anyone maintain and enhance their health through food
Every recipe is nutritionist reviewed and gives both personal and nutritional overviews, and the book is full of love from start to finish.
The recipes have been deliciously tested and tasted galore and this cookbook created with support from Falmouth and Plymouth Universitys.
Contents: Each recipe is split across two pages and consists of: An Illustrative whole-page photo. General nutritional and medical ingredient info. Ingredient list. Cooking Method. Food Key – Vegan, Gluten-Free, Vegetarian, Simply Smooth (for those suffering Chemo side effects)
