The dietary recommendations included in the Handbook--like all Cancer Project publications, public service announcements, and reports--are based solidly on the scientific literature. In fact, Handbook readers will note 88 citations of peer-reviewed nutrition studies. Although it's true that The Cancer Project and the American Cancer Society differ in some of their recommendations--we recommend a low-fat vegan diet and the ACS advises limited consumption of processed and red meats--we agree on several important issues. Both organizations advise choosing whole grains over refined grains and eating five or more servings a day of fruits and vegetables. Readers might also be interested to know that we are working on a revised edition of the Survivor's Handbook which will be published this fall. Check our Web site www.CancerProject.org for updates on its release, information on free cooking classes around the country, and the latest in nutrition science. In good health, Jennifer Reilly, R.D.
