Food for Life Nutrition and Cooking Class Testimonials
The reviews are in! Below is feedback from people who participated in The Cancer Project’s Food for Life classes on nutrition and cooking for cancer prevention and survival. 2009"Excellent! I enjoyed meeting other women and realized how much control I can have in preventing reoccurrence." -Anonymous, Dayton, Ohio, 10/20/09 "Thanks! Love this class...My husband even likes the food and he is the king of junk food." -Suzanne Puckett, Watauga, Texas, 10/15/09 "This class was great encouragement and accountability while trying to make healthy changes. I've lost 15 pounds over the past 7 weeks." – Deb Vining, Yuma, Ariz., 9/15/09 “This program needs to be in every doctor’s office. This is what students should learn in medical school!” -Kimberly LeBoeuf, Hyannis, Mass., 6/27/09 “Actually tasting the recommended foods was very valuable as I probably wouldn’t have tried many of them otherwise. I feel much more hopeful about the chance that my cancer will not return. Thank you for all of the information.” –Wilma Castriota, Pittsburg, Pa., 3/11/09 2008“Since I was diagnosed with cancer, I have sought advice from doctors about how to keep myself cancer free. My doctors said very little about how to improve my diet for cancer prevention. Finally, I feel I have an important, tested plan for a healthier diet to keep me cancer free. Thank you!” -Mary Kay Jefferson, Westlake, Ohio, 12/08 “I have never been to a class this exciting and inspirational!” – Anonymous, South Portland, Maine, 11/08 “Excellent class! I came every night despite having worked all day and not feeling especially well because of chemo.” -Donna K. Moody, Anchorage, Alaska, 10/08 “I have been on the plant-based diet for only a month and am feeling so much better. I have more energy, have lost nine pounds, and have no desire for meats or dairy products. What you said in class is really true, "You can change your desire for unhealthy foods in three weeks." Your class was revolutionary for me and my family. Thank you for sharing this lifesaving nutritional information and new way of cooking.” - Dorothy Graham, Cape Coral, Fla., 8/08 2007“As a cancer survivor, I was looking for ways to improve my overall nutrition. This class was a dream come true. By following the recommended diet suggestions I have found that my health and energy have improved immensely. Thanks!” “I hope to pass on the information and skills that I learned to others—Being a physician and a cancer survivor, I fortunately have the opportunity to do this and I intend to start right away.” “This class was fantastic! Every single week I learned something new that was easy enough to incorporate into my daily life and tasty enough that I wanted to do it. Thank you for the education and great recipes. I can’t wait for the next time this class is given!” “I have always enjoyed cooking but this course has opened up a whole new way of food preparation that is based on scientific research as well as wholesome healthy ingredients to improve wellness and reduce cancer risk.” 2006“I have lost 15 pounds since the start of the class!” “I was so grateful for the opportunity to be shown and taste the new ways of cooking that will assist our family in our earlier decision to adopt a [new] lifestyle to fight my husband’s prostate cancer. The book is concise and informative, and the DVD’s segments complement the chapters very well. My family has been very enthusiastic about our new meals!” “I have begun using what I’ve learned in class over the eight weeks. I’ve lost 10 pounds and my blood sugar has lowered by 10 points. Thanks so much for showing me a way to eat that I can carry on myself.” “As a physician, I often recommend diet changes to improve the health of my patients. This class is informative and fun, and most of all, demonstrates practical and tasty ways to make our diets healthier. I also appreciate the scientific data that support what’s being taught. This class has impacted both my personal and professional life.” “This class has changed my life in a profound way—revolutionized my ideas about nutrition, reduced my waistline, and cut my food budget by 25 percent. It doesn’t get much better than that!” |
