Jerry Brunetti – Food as Medicine – Eat Natural Food

UPDATE 7 FEB 2009: The videos posted on Google-video have been pulled. I’ve uploaded them on Youtube as of now and added background information. Click here to go to the new blog series on this wonderful presentation by Jerry Brunetti.

This is Jerry Brunetti’s highly informative video lecture Food as Medicine (2005) where he lays out his experience with terminal cancer which he successfully overcame with eating healthy and different food than he used to eat until then. In 1999 he was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and given 6 months to live. He did not submit to chemotherapy, but rather, developed his own unique dietary approach to enhance his immune system. Jerry shares his personal experiences and provides his recipe for healthy living. You will learn about the crucial importance of minerals, which foods to choose for your best health requirements and what to avoid. After viewing this fascinating lecture you’ll realize the remarkable value of food in building good foundations, and providing buffers, to keep your body healthy. […]
