- A race for life : a diet and exercise program for superfitness and reversing the aging process : the amazing story of how one woman survived breast cancer to take on the toughest races in the world / by Heidrich, Ruth.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 153-156) and index.In her mid-forties, Ruth Heidrich was diagnosed with breast cancer. After undergoing treatment, she realized she had to challenge herself to keep well. She decided to run the punishing Ironman Triathlon, a test of endurance involving a 2.4 mile swim, 112-mile bike ride, and a 26.2-mile marathon run. To do this and remain cancer-free, she stopped eating animal products, adopting a plant-based diet and a life-affirming attitude that was determined - in more ways than one - to be in it for the long run. Twenty-five years later, Heidrich is still running, still cancer free, and still positive about life. This is her story. She describes her fight with cancer, her healing diet, and the rewards of competing in the toughest races in the world. She shows you how to become healthier, more positive, and challenge yourself to change.- Subjects: Biographies.; Heidrich, Ruth; Health.; Physical fitness.; Nutrition.; Breast; Breast.;

It traces the personal journeys of a pair of pioneering researchers, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn. Although they didn't know each other, their individual research led to startlingly similar conclusions: degenerative diseases could usually be prevented--and in many cases reversed--by adopting a whole food, plant-based diet. Despite the profound implications of their findings, their work has remained relatively unknown to the public. The filmmakers explore the ancient idea of food as medicine, following "reality patients" who have adopted a whole foods plant-based diet as the primary approach to treat their ailments.MPAA rating: Rated PG as some material may not be suitable for children, some thematic elements and incidental smoking.Digital video disc.System requirements: - Subjects: Nutritionally induced diseases -- Prevention.;
