RVL S3 E10 Reading The Grape Cure by Johanna Brandt originally published in 1927

Join me today for something completely different! I'm thrilled to say that I'm reading out loud chapters 1-5 of The Grape Cure. I'll read the book in its entirety over the course of the next few podcasts. South African author Johanna Brandt made it her life's work to spread word of her life-saving discovery. After learning how to keep her stomach cancer from growing by experimenting with water fasting, she was able to prove her findings through an exploratory surgery. The surgeon confirmed that her stomach cancer had disappeared, but Johanna assured the doctor that she was not completely healed. She still experienced pain in the same area. Undaunted, she was determined to find the solution, all while helping many others to heal from a variety of illnesses and cancers. She achieved victory several years later. After six weeks on what she deemed The Grape Cure, she completely healed herself from stomach cancer and continued to help many others heal all over the world. She and her colleagues later experimented with grape juice as well, and found that to be just as effective. She lived several more decades and died in 1964 at age 87.
