We know exactly how to prevent and reverse many of our deadliest diseases. The science is settled, and the results are proven—Medicare will even pay for it. There’s just one problem: getting people to do it.
In the 1940s, Dr. Walter Kempner demonstrated that diet alone could reverse diseases previously thought to be irreversible, such as malignant hypertension and kidney and heart failure. Although many were critically ill with only months to live, the battle wasn’t against disease; it was against human nature.
