"I have myself, through Natural Hygiene, over 16 years, treated all forms and hundreds of cases of typhus and typhoid fevers, pneumonia's, measles and dysentery's, and have not lost a single patient. The same is true of scarlet and other fevers. No medicine whatever was given".--Dr Trall, 1860.
"The primary cause of disease is not germs. Disease is caused by a toxemia which results in cellular impairment and breakdown, thus paving the way for the multiplication and onslaught of germs."---Dr Henry Bieler, M.D.
"(There are many reasons for doing enemas, including)"...enemas taken with only a relatively small amount of fluid in order to cleanse the rectum and lower colon; astringent enemas, taken to relieve inflammation in diarrhea, dysentery, etc.; nourishing enemas, given in wasting diseases, unconsciousness, and other conditions where it becomes necessary to administer food by rectum....(and) enemas taken to thoroughly cleanse the entire length of the colon."---Dr Jethro Kloss, MD Back to Eden (Page
"As a practicing physician for over fifty years, I have reached three basic
conclusions as to the cause and cure of disease. This book is about those conclusions.
The first is that the primary cause of disease is not germs.
Rather, I believe that disease is caused by a toxemia which results in cellular impairment
and breakdown, thus paving the way for the multiplication and onslaught of germs.
My second conclusion is that in almost all cases the use of drugs
in treating patients is harmful. Drugs often cause serious side effects, and sometimes
even create new diseases. The dubious benefits they afford the patient are at best
temporary. Yet the number of drugs on the market increases geometrically every year as
each chemical firm develops its own variation of the compounds. The physician is indeed
rare who can be completely aware of the potential danger from the side effects of all of
these drugs.
My third conclusion is that disease can be cured through the
proper use of correct foods. This Statement may sound deceptively simple, but I have
arrived at it only after intensive study of a highly complex subject: colloid and
endocrine chemistry.
My conclusions are based on experimental and observational
results, gathered through years of successfully treating patients. Occasionally I have
resorted to the use of drugs in emergency situations, but those times have been rare.
Instead, I have sought to prescribe for my patients' illnesses antidotes which Nature has
placed at their disposal. "---Bieler, Henry G., M.D. (1965). (Food Is Your Best
Medicine.)
"Smallpox is considered one of the most virulent of contagious diseases, and it is generally believed that persons exposed are almost invariably attacked, unless protected by vaccination. This is one of the most stupendous exaggerations to be found in medical literature. My experience has been that very few people take it when exposed to it. "--John Tilden MD
"Measles is the manner in which a child's body throws off toxemia. When children are cared for improperly, they become toxemic, and their skin eliminates toxin to a greater degree than does the skin of grown people."--John Tilden MD
