Conventional medical wisdom changes constantly, so how do we make educated health decisions? This book helps its readers sort through contradictory medical advice by comparing different cancer treatments, proposing the idea that when your cells have more energy, so will you. To learn how to deal with his advanced prostate cancer, Dave Ames studied Nobel Prize winning research and learned to make treatment and lifestyle choices resulting from the effects on his cells' ability to use oxygen. This path through the maze of conflicting health advice showed him what to eat and how to counter the side effects of radiation. His treatments ran the gamut from conventional drugs and radiation, to the less-conventional such as dietary changes and the decidedly alternative practice of Qi Gong. Dave synthesised his copious research to write the book he wished was available when he was diagnosed, adding a big dose of humour to help the biochemistry go down. He explains the benefits of alternative medicine, how the body works, and the latest mainstream research on cancer. He believes that when it comes to cancer, it's not about beating the odds, it's about improving them.

About Dave Ames
Dave Ames is a fly-fishing guide and author living in Missoula, Montana. His work has appeared in a wide range of newspapers and magazines, and his three earlier books have met with critical and popular acclaim. He has been cancer-free for several years and plans to stay that way using the knowledge he shares in this book. Since he looks pretty good for a guy who was supposed to be dead four years ago, he is continuing his research into integrated health care and how patients might best help themselves.
Reviews for Me, My Cells & I
Brilliant. This is the equivalent of the best PhD thesis I've ever seen. I've forwarded copies of the book to my colleagues at Sloan-Kettering and the National Cancer Institute.
