No disease that can be treated by diet should be treated with any other means.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
One of the reasons it's so difficult to study the relationship between diet and disease is because many dietary behaviors are associated with non-dietary behaviors.
People need to eat whole food plant foods, primarily... whole grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. That diet supports our lives. We ought to live to be 90 or 100 without getting any diseases.
Of course, there are diseases of which people die.
I think if we can prevent a fatal disease, we should.
What some call health, if purchased by perpetual anxiety about diet, isn't much better than tedious disease.
I considered obesity a disease. It can destroy you from within. It almost destroyed me, and I do not want that to happen to anybody.
A healthy diet is a solution to many of our health-care problems. It's the most important solution.
Once a disease has entered the body, all parts which are healthy must fight it: not one alone, but all. Because a disease might mean their common death. Nature knows this; and Nature attacks the disease with whatever help she can muster.
You should never go on diet and must follow a healthy lifestyle.
The doctor has been taught to be interested not in health but in disease. What the public is taught is that health is the cure for disease.
