Hranom protiv raka: Kuharski priručnik
A practical guide to cancer prevention through nutrition, based on scientific findings, emphasizes that improper diet contributes to 30% of cancer cases, while a balanced diet rich in anti-carcinogenic substances can reduce the risk.
The authors, led by Mlinaric, a prominent surgeon from Bjelovar, provide information on carcinogenic and anticarcinogenic substances in food and advice for healthier eating habits.
The manual contains recipes for dishes that include foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains and nuts, rich in antioxidants (e.g. vitamins C and E) and fiber. Cabbage, broccoli, garlic and green tea are especially recommended due to their anticarcinogenic properties. The book educates on proper food preparation and storage in order to preserve nutritional value and avoid harmful substances.
The work combines medical knowledge with practical cooking instructions, making it accessible to a wider audience. Although it does not claim that food cures cancer, it emphasizes prevention and health support. The bibliography does cite scientific sources, confirming its credibility. The book is a valuable contribution to Croatian health literature.
