Viratech Corp. (OTC:VIRA) announced today that Cancer.im has released “Find and Stop Breast Cancer” by Dr. Kevin Buckman. This book is the first of 235 books on the subject of cancer to be released on Amazon’s Kindle format by the company and experience based social network.
All the books, to include “Find and Stop Breast Cancer” by Dr. Kevin Buckman, will be offered through Amazon.com on its KDP Select program. With KDP Select, Amazon Kindle subscribers will be offered a free download of the book, for which Amazon.com will pay a portion of its KDP fund to Viratech for each download.
A person’s diet has significant impact on their life. It affects their weight, their heart health, and as demonstrated in “Find and Stop Breast Cancer” can be a factor in an individual’s risk of having to deal with cancer in their lifetime. Dr. Buckman quotes his thirty five years of experience in cancer research, as well as several scientific studies, in his chapter on Diet.
There are fats that harm, and fats that heal, and he takes the time to describe the most common, and ways to avoid them completely or at least ingest in moderation. Detailed information on Omega-3, Omega-6 and the healing powers of green tea and extra-virgin olive oil give solid information to make decisions on menus and dining places. One study showed an astonishing 75% increase in breast cancer risk when a diet heavy in trans fats increases various acids in the blood.
Dr. Buckman’s book, “Find and Stop Breast Cancer”, gives every woman a real resource to consult when questions arise regarding their risk of cancer and what to do about it. Diet is only one of many topics covered in this easy-to-read, thirteen chapter tome.
About Cancer.im
Through its experience-based search engine and technology, http://www.Cancer.im’s goal is to become the primary resource on the web for people affected by cancer, for the purpose of making a difference in their own lives and the lives of others. Cancer.im’s mission is to empower every cancer patient, regardless of their ability to pay, with the power to research their disease and to find, organize, and manage their own cancer support network. The goal of these support networks is to assist the patient in conserving needed energy by reducing the burden associated with their own daily trials and tribulations. Cancer.im will strive to convert this saved energy into a higher level of patient activity and a stronger determination to fight their disease.
Unlike other social networks, Cancer.im was designed by a team that is dedicated to specifically serve the unique needs of those currently struggling with the disease. This new network combines databases of medical community knowledge, repositories of wisdom from cancer survivors, systems for helping cancer patients organize their records and various facets of their treatment, and tools that allow patients and their supporters to work together effectively. In short, Cancer.im provides everything a cancer patient, friend, or family member is looking for to help in the fight against the disease, all in one online location and easy-to-use format.
“We can lower the incidence of morbidity — regardless of treatment – by raising the quality of life of the cancer patient, as noted in a 2009 study in the Journal of Clinical Oncology called Quality of life supersedes the classic prognosticators for long-term survival in locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer. “We have developed fifteen best-practice modules featured on the Cancer.im. website. Each one is organized to provide specific resources to help cancer patients, families, and health providers,” states Dr. Buckman.
In addition, he adds, “Our tools enable permission controlled social networking groups, and can help convert friends and family from a state of being helpless to being helpful. They can actually increase the cancer patient’s quality of life. Simultaneously we can empower the cancer patient with the ability to tap the experiences of other cancer survivors. Additionally, they can create their own customized strategy to fight their own cancer, based on their own values, beliefs, and resources.”
Cancer.im technology can use its platforms and resources to help authors get book distribution thru its patented ways to use social networks, copyright protection, and create new markets for eBooks.
