"The healing power of the body is not something you don't want to take advantage of. No matter what other treatments you need, take advantage of that one." – Dr. Neal Barnard Dr. Barnard is absolutely right! The best way that we can take care of our bodies — the very machines that have the power to heal themselves — is to put good clean fuel in the engine. And the best fuel that we have available is healthy food.
