Dr. Moerman's theory is based on one elementary idea - that the body's natural defenses are far more sophisticated than anything a laboratory could produce. Instead of concentrating treatment on just the tumor, he wanted to enhance the body's immune system to that the body could heal itself. In this book, Mr. Ruth Jochems gives a clear account of how an why the diet works. He details the combination of vitamins and minerals to be used, and outlines the diet. He also includes easy-to-follow recipes. This is the first time this diet has been made available to the American public.
