What illnesses can be naturally cured with foods only, without any medications?

Henry G. Bieler, MD says,

... I began to suspect the close relationship between health and proper eating habits when, early in my career as an overworked young doctor, my own health broke down. I have always been a man of great curiosity and as I investigated deeply the chemistry of food along new lines, I came to the conclusion that I, personally must give up the use of drugs and henceforth rely solely on food as medicine. It was not long until, after repeated verified results, I discarded drugs in treating my patients. My colleagues, at the time, thought I had lost my mind.

These alternative treatments for so many illnesses are not likely to be celebrated.

I have a certain illness. I think that some foods can be harmful to me. Which foods do I have to begin with?

This is true. If you currently do have a health condition then some foods that are normally considered healthy might not be appropriate for you.

Examples:

If you have any type of infection(s) you should not eat leafy greens. All infections are YIN and leafy greens are also YIN and they would help the infection spread. Read about natural antibiotics.

If you have GI bleeding such as the case in ulcerative colitis you should not eat strong YIN vegetables like parsley and collard greens.

If you have a gallstone you should not eat carrots or leeks. Gallstones are YANG and carrots are also YANG and they would bring on a gallstone attack.

Which foods are good for my current health condition?

Each health condition requires a unique diet plan to achieve a cure.

Example: parsley is very beneficial for anemia and diabetes and many other diseases, but is harmful for treating a GI infections and skin diseases like psoriasis and eczema. All skin diseases are YIN and parsley is also YIN and parsley would make skin disease spread.

Cancer is just like any other disease. It is caused by a faulty diet over a very long period of time (sometimes decades).
