There is a place for drugs, surgery, osteopathy, chiropractic and homeopathy. But unless toxins are eliminated and proper nutrients are provided, healing can not take place.
Dr. Bernard Jensen
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. But time has only strengthened my belief.
Henry G. Bieler, M.D.
I firmly believe that if the whole materia medica as now being used could be sunk to the bottom of the sea, it would be all the better for mankind and all the worse for the fish.
Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes
People came to me who were
disappointed in orthodox medical treatment-especially the stimulation
drugs with which they were whipping the tired horses imprisoned in their
bodies. They came to me for dietary reform usually because they had
found out as they went along that food had something to do with their
disorders and symptoms.

The basic conditions which lead to disease are either nutrient deficiencies or toxic accumulations in the body.
Dr. Bernard Jensen
All diseases are related to increased levels of toxic substances in the body.
Dr. Donald Bodeen
We are the world's wealthiest country-yet one
the unhealthiest. we are flabby, overweight, and have a lot of
dental caries, fluoridation notwithstanding. Our gastrointestinal
system operates like a spluttering gas engine. We cannot sleep; we
cannot get going when we are awake. we have neuroses; we have high
blood pressure.
Neither our hearts nor our heads last as long as
they should. Coronary disease at the peak of life has hit epidemic
proportions. Suicide is one of the leading causes of death (fourth
between the ages of of fifteen and forty four). We suffer from a plethora of the diseases of
civilization.
Herbert Ratner, M.D.
Nature is the true healer. The physician is only nature's assistant.
Hippocrates
It is important to remember that the mere
introduction of germs into the living organism does not ensure their
multiplication or the production of disease. The condition of the
organism itself has much influence on the result. Pasteur has
certainly made a hasty generalization in declaring that the only
condition which determines an epidemic is the greater or less abundance
of germs.
John Shaw Billings
Though scientists do not all agree till now on the relationship between illness and nutrition, but evidence is mounting and there is a general consensus that the quality and quantity of foods we consume in our affluent society and our sedentary lifestyle are the main factors causing many forms of cancer, cardiovascular and other degenerative diseases.
Dr. Ted Cooper,
Former US assistant Health secretary
We tend to think of health as something
that comes in a capsule purchased over the counter in a drugstore,
instead of as a state which we attain by following the laws of nature.
Henry G. Bieler, M.D.
Modern man ends up a vitamin-taking, antacid-consuming, barbiturate-sedated, aspirin-alleviated, Benzedrine-stimulated, psychosomatically diseased, surgically despoiled animal.
Nature’s highest product turns out to be a fatigued, peptic-ulcerated, tense, headachy, over-stimulated, neurotic, tonsil-less and appendix-less creature.
Dr. Herbert Ratner
describing modern man's state of health
Management of chronic diseases is a medical euphemism. It is not curing disease, but controlling it with the aid of suppressive drugs. This type of response to disease halts any progress towards healing. It serves only to make the patient more comfortable, while allowing him to progress to the degenerative stage, postponing the day of reckoning. Chronic conditions denied proper care will inevitably regress into ever greater chronicity until they become degenerative.
Dr. Bernard Jensen
Thy food shall be thy remedy.
Hippocrates
Breast cancer, the biggest killer of women among all cancers, exists where high saturated-fat consumption is present. It is relatively uncommon among American women of Puerto-Rican decent whose diet contains little saturated fats and cholesterol.
Dr. Earnest Wiender, Director
NIH, New York
What most people do not know is that the only thing that drugs do is alleviate the symptoms, and that they do not help in regaining the body's health and well being. Drugs do not cure. Nature and nutrition do.

Dr. Donald Bodeen
I stopped using drugs in treating my patients when I began to reexamine an old axiom which is that nature is the true healer, using the body's natural defenses. The physician's role is to assist in that healing in cooperation with nature and not in replacing nature. Nature cures slowly just like trees grow slowly and not suddenly like chemical drug marketers claim.
Henry G. Bieler, M.D.
We do not GET a disease. We CREATE a disease by reducing our natural immunity through wrong eating, thinking and living. All diseases are curable. But not all patients are curable. we have to focus on the patient rather than the disease.
Dr. Bernard Jensen
There are 3 kinds
of medicines.
The lowest is poisonous, the
middle is a little poisonous and the highest is not poisonous.
The lowest cures 6 out of every
10 diseases and leaves poison in the body.
The middle cures 7 of every 10
diseases and leaves a little poison in the body.
Even the highest cures only 8-9
of every 10 diseases.
Diseases that cannot be cured
with medicine, can be cured only with food.
