ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The renowned rock artist Draco Rosa discovered the wonders of a plantbased diet after being diagnosed with cancer. He worked hand-in-hand with his nutritionist, Nena Niessen, who is also a cancer survivor, to find strength through a healthy diet during the process of treatment and recovery.

His life would never be the same: he learned to identify the beneficial ingredients in foods in order to make his own recipes, bringing out the best in every plant and leaving out harmful ingredients. As such, his first-hand experience helped him realize the impact that nutrition can have in the prevention and recovery from illness, as well as on one's general well being.

Now, Draco and Nena want to spread the word about plant-based nutrition as a fundamental weapon in the fight against illness in general and cancer in particular. In this book, they explain the nutritional and medicinal properties of each plant, propose a plan for detoxing your body, and compile their best recipes, which will delight your taste buds with a healthy vegetarian diet.
