Foreword
This book provides a summary of the progress of Cellular Health in the battle against several forms of cancer and
infectious diseases, as well as other serious diseases. It
substantiates the fact thatcancer—after heart disease, the
second-largest plague of mankind—will lose its threat. This
book discloses key mechanisms, describing how cancer
cells spread through the body and how this process can be
blocked in a natural way. All this can be done without chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and other dangerous and
ineffective approaches used today by conventional medicine. It is no surprise,therefore, that the Cellular Health
approach can help in diseases that conventional medicine
still considers incurable.

This simple but important discovery shook the world as it
was shaken once before, 400 years ago. In those days the
discovery that the Earth revolved around the Sun instead of
the other way around shook the foundations of those in
power. In our time, it is the discovery thatheart disease is
not a disease but the result of a chronic vitamin deficiency
and thus preventable. Practical implementation of this discovery will undermine a multi-million-dollar market of questionable pharmaceutical drugs. Even more, it removes a
smoke screen placed on the origin of such common disease
as heart disease. With the understanding of the causes of
diseases, patients today...
