how stress affects sleep and addiction, as well as new insights into anxiety and personality disorder and the impact of spirituality on managing stress. As Sapolsky explains, most of us do not lie awake at night worrying about whether we have leprosy or malaria. Instead, the diseases we fear-and the ones that plague us now-are illnesses brought on by the slow accumulation of damage, such as heart disease and cancer. When we worry or experience stress, our body turns on the same physiological responses that an animal's does, but we do not resolve conflict in the same way-through fighting or fleeing. Over time, this activation of a stress response makes us literally sick. Combining cutting-edge research with a healthy dose of good humor and practical advice, Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers explains how prolonged stress causes or intensifies a range of physical and mental afflictions, including depression, ulcers, colitis, heart disease, and more. It also provides essential guidance to controlling our stress responses. This new edition promises to be the most comprehensive and engaging one yet.

Cancer-Free: Your Guide to Gentle, Non-toxic Healing (Second Edition)
"If you love your stricken one, this is your Bible." said Denzel Koh of Brisbane, Australia after he healed his daughter's cancer using the information in a previous edition of this book.
A cancer diagnosis always causes fear. All of us have seen relatives and friends destroyed by conventional cancer treatment. Now, thanks to books like this one and the Internet, you can quickly learn what you need to know. You can heal the cancer using natural, non-toxic substances that work. What you need is a guide to cut through the overwhelming jungle of information.
This book provides that guide. The information in it has been refined over eight years using feedback from real cancer survivors about what worked for them. The author has counseled hundreds of cancer patients by phone and e-mail in 58 countries. At least 1,500 of them have recovered using his information.
He is not a medical professional. He is a "reporter" furnishing you with information that consists of "what he would do if he were you or your loved one." His coaching is available to you after you have read this book, if you need it.
Bill Henderson has published 105 free newsletters on natural cancer treatment to 8,000 subscribers all over the world, starting in 1999. The information in these newsletters has now been incorporated into this, his third book. The book is up-to-date, specific and accurate.
Bill informs you of over 140 web sites and dozens of other books and newsletters you can use to expand your knowledge of natural cancer treatment.
The self-treatments he recommends are harmless enough that you can start them immediately, without more research, if you like. They do not interfere with conventional cancer therapy, if that is your choice. In fact, they offset most of the side effects of that treatment.
"Cancer is not a disease," says Bill. "It is a reaction to what your body has experienced. Reverse that cause and the cancer goes away. Continue what you did to reverse it and it stays away."
Bill explains that there are four common characteristics of all cancers. These have been known since the 1920's:
1. Low oxygen uptake by the cells.
2. A weak immune system.
3. Toxins -- usually caused by diet.
4. Acidity -- again, usually caused by diet.
Bill Henderson's recommended regimen tracks with the knowledge for which Otto Warburg, a famous German doctor and researcher, won a Nobel Prize in 1931. He described the cancer cell and stressed the need to reverse the above four characteristics of the cancer in order to heal it.
Bill's mission to help cancer patients heal started with his experience with his former wife, Marjorie. Her ovarian cancer was treated with conventional cancer treatment from 1990 to 1994, when she died. Bill is convinced that the treatment killed her. He wants to help as many people as possible avoid her fate.

"My hat's off to this author. What an informative, thorough, accurate life-saving read. It's all there - just bring your highlighter and prepare to be enlightened" says Pam Hoeppner, breast cancer survivor who cured her cancer using Protocel, a treatment outlined in this book. With satisfied readers in over 50 countries world wide, Ty Bollinger's "Cancer: Step Outside the Box" is a roadmap to successfully treating cancer and regaining your health! The fourth edition, published in May of 2009, is chock full of the most effective, non-toxic cancer treatments in the world. Truth be told, there are many potent and well-proven alternative strategies for preventing and treating cancer... without surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation (the "Big 3"). Inside this book, you will find a wealth of information that your doctor probably doesn't know. Here's why: while at medical school, doctors learn a very drug-intensive style of medicine, because multinational pharmaceutical companies ("Big Pharma") funds the medical schools. As a result, most doctors are still thinking "inside the box" when it comes to cancer treatments. The "cancer box" is largely the creation of Big Pharma attempting to peddle their poisons (such as chemotherapy) in an effort to increase shareholder profits. Sadly, these profits are generated at the expense of cancer patients. This book succinctly explains the facts and deceptions about cancer and cancer treatments, it documents multiple cases of persecution and suppression of effective natural cancer treatments, it details the most potent advanced cancer treatment protocols, and it clearly explains the relationship between nutrition and cancer. The author is not a medical doctor. He is a "researcher" who has compiled the most concise, easily readable, comprehensive book on alternative cancer treatments and health. This book is a "gold mine" of information, helpful to cancer patients, those attempting to prevent cancer, and health care practitioners alike. According to Dr. Pavel Yakovlev, MD (Oncosurgeon in the Ukraine), "the material in your book is enriching and hope-giving for clinical practice ... I made many notes while reading it to be applied to my work." In the words of Elaine Hulliberger, breast cancer survivor, "I had terminal cancer and used Ty Bollinger's information on non-toxic supplements and the nutritional information along with traditional medicine. Anyone who has cancer, or knows someone with cancer should get this book and read it from cover to cover. I'm alive today because I did."
