If you want to treat the root causes of your cancer naturally, the innovative approach developed by Dr Nasha Winters and Jess Higgins Kelley is just right for you.The oncologist and the nutritionist view cancer as a metabolic disease and show how, through the right diet and lifestyle, you can influence your metabolism to create an environment that is hostile to cancer, preventing the formation and spread of cancer cells and destroying tumour cells.

In this book, Oliver Kahn shows us that he is much more than the images of him would suggest. That he is even tougher than one might realise, but also that he is far more level-headed, thoughtful and even gentler than any picture could ever convey. In this book, he explains to us everything that goes into ‘Kahn-style’ success. Above all, however, he tells us where success comes from: namely, from within.About the authorOliver Kahn is not the straightforward, successful man he is generally taken to be. He is not the prodigy whose path to becoming the world’s best goalkeeper was predestined. Oliver Kahn was born in Karlsruhe in 1969. In 1975, he began his football career at Karlsruher SC, where his father, Rolf Kahn, and his brother, Axel Kahn, also played as professional footballers. In 1987, he made his Bundesliga debut for Karlsruher SC. In 1994, he moved to Germany’s record champions, FC Bayern Munich. This move became the most expensive goalkeeper transfer in Bundesliga history. He went on to become one of the most successful German professional footballers of all time and the most successful German goalkeeper of all time: seven-time German champion, six-time DFB-Pokal winner, and in 2001, winner of the Champions League, the highest honour in European club football. During his professional career, he played in 864 competitive matches, including 554 Bundesliga matches, 424 for FC Bayern Munich, 86 matches as goalkeeper for the German national team and 141 matches in the European Cup and the Champions League. He was named World Goalkeeper of the Year three times. In 2002, he was named best player and best goalkeeper at the World Cup in Japan. He received countless other prizes and honours for his outstanding sporting achievements and exceptional personal qualities, including for his team spirit and exemplary conduct during the 2006 World Cup in Germany. In the summer of 2008, in his 22nd year as a professional footballer, he brought an unprecedented career to a close. Read an extract
