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.

Research compiled over the past twenty years has beyond a reasonable doubt proved that mother's milk is best for newborn babies. Formula-fed babies are more likely to develop digestive problems and diarrhea. They also have a lowered immunity to illness and infection, and less of a chance of surviving the first years of life alive and well.

Breast cancer, the biggest killer of women among all cancers, exists where

Thy food shall be thy remedy.
Hippocrates
You are what you eat.
Brillat Safarin
Most of the vitamin supplements on the market are synthesized from coal tar and other petroleum derivatives. And while the synthetic substances may be chemically identical or closely related to the natural vitamins, they may have only a fraction of the biological activity. Synthetic vitamins may substitute for some, but not all, of the functions of their natural counterparts. Synthetics may also have additional effects beyond those vitamins found in foods. In fact, vitamin manufacturers warn us that large doses of supplemental vitamins A, B complex, C, D and E can harm the body.

All diseases are related to
increased levels of toxic substances in the body.

Would you fill your car's tank with diesel if you knew it runs on gas?
Yet, most of us fill our bodies, our most precious possession, with harmful foods that run down this marvel of a machine and cause it to break down sooner or later.
Do you know that this wonderful human body is endowed with such strong tenacious defense mechanisms that it has absolute immunity to all diseases when it is well fed and cared for.
The real cause of disease is not germs, but our abuse of our body to the point of being so run down and defenseless that tiny germs find it a good place to multiply.
Do mosquitoes causes water to stagnate in a pond, or do they seek out stagnant waters because they are a good place to multiply?!

Chew you soup and drink your foods.

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.
