Hippocrates(460-357 BC), the father of medicine said “let food be the medicine and let medicine be food”. The former part of the sentences is for the sick, the latter is for the healthy. For the sick, positive natural are the true natural drugs and the commercially marketed drugs, which are conductive to health as all of them have adverse side effects. For healthy natural foods are the means of freedom from disease.
Introduction:
Hippocrates fully believed that natural foods have unlimited power to sustain health and restore it when lost. Researches carried out on separate varieties of fruits, vegetables, and other foodstuffs, have shown that natural foods possess the property of curing almost every kind of disease.
These researches indicate that certain specific foods can serve as powerful natural drugs like laxatives, antibiotics, antidepressants, antiulcerants, analgesics, tranquillizers, cholesterol reducers, cancer fighters, fertility agents, diuretics, anti inflammatory agents, blood vessels dilators, anti hypertensive’s, and so on….
Food can thus be refined as miracle medicine that we can use in preventions and treating all kinds and in boosting mental and physical energy, vigor and well being.
Natural foods contain all essential vitamins, minerals, traces elements and other constituents, whereas in refined foods they are largely absent.
