"This book is not only a passionate and well-written reminder to live life to the fullest it is a template for how to do so. As a physician for over twenty years, I have witnessed remarkable survivals against great odds. We do not teach patients, however, how to transition from a survivor to a thriver. All of us can benefit from this well researched and articulate review of the influencers of "vital living.” But for cancer survivors like myself, this book should be required reading. I have told patients that their diagnosis can offer a blessing of opportunity to enrich every remaining moment of their lives. These authors have blessed us with Five to Thrive, a blueprint for building a better life in which we can thrive."
—Susan W Ryan, DO, Emergency Physician Denver, CO, and Melanoma Survivor

This incredibly valuable resource will serve not only to reduce the risk of cancer and its recurrence, but will also decrease obesity, diabetes, heart disease and many other chronic ailments in those who follow its sound advice.
