Love love love this book. It’s become a bit of a bible after my recent breast cancer diagnosis. I’ve tried the majority of the recipes & there isn’t one I don’t like. Love the meal prep, smoothies & juices. Also very well organised into symptoms, and recipes that deal with each of them. Skin has never looked better & I feel great which is in no small way the result of following this book. Absolutely awesome, highly recommend.

Beautifully laid out with excellent nutritional advice and tasty recipes. Highly recommend 👌

Perfect for my friend going through treatment right now.

I ordered this book when I heard the challenges a friend was having with food while she went through cancer treatment. On the one hand, she knew she needed to eat well to sustain herself through treatment, but on the other, she felt drained, sick and unsure of what foods might help her symptoms. As a supporter, the last thing I wanted to do was add another lasagna to my friend’s freezer if that wasn’t a good choice for her to eat. Enter The Living Kitchen. Suddenly I had a whole bunch of recipes at my fingertips designed expressly to fortify her body (with nutrition and deliciousness) through this tricky time in her life. A few of the ingredients were new to me, but everything was readily available between the grocery store and Bulk Barn, and I live in a fairly small city. Recipes were well explained and not difficult to follow.Cooking from this book made me feel I was actually doing something to help my friend, which is no small thing in a situation where friends and family often feel powerless. I’m glad this book exists and I look forward to using it for my own family, as the recipes are very healthy.
