Carrot Juice, Sunbaths, and Bare Feet...

If Dr. Jerry Lee Hoover has it right, then I'd rather have cancer than the allergies that have been bothering me the last couple of weeks. I've seen the effects of cancer in my family and many of my friends' families. It's a spirit-breaking, heart-wrenching disease, and I don't mean to diminish it in any way. However, not only does Dr. Hoover make it sound fairly easy and plausible to beat cancer, but he makes it sound downright enjoyable. In fact, he promises that any cancer patient will begin to see the effects of his program within just two weeks.

On his website, www.cancernaturalcure.com, he explains that because 'God created us, he knows what is best for us to use when we are sick. God’s medicine is the herb of the field and not chemical drugs.' Evidently, instead of all the money that is spent on cancer research and treating cancer with drugs, chemotherapy, etc., we should be taking a quick trip to the produce section and hanging out in the back yard all day. Hoover's biggest piece of evidences are a 1979 study (28 years old...) that states about 75% of Americans that died (1.5 out of 2.1 Million) that year did so due to a diet-related disease and a follow up study of 200 people that underwent a "spontaneous remission of cancer". 87% of them had switched to a vegetarian diet. Therefore, the biggest factor in healing your body from cancer is eating healthy.

Under the Cancer Cure section of his website, he lists a few tips on how to fight cancer. Generally they follow the theme of eating healthy and purifying your immune system and bloodstream. "Cancer will not develop where there is a pure blood stream and the body’s immune system is functioning at its optimum." Eliminating high fat and high sugar foods, as well as in-between meal snacks, eating a 'totally raw diet', and drinking a glass of carrot juice daily, anyone is on their way to beating cancer. Beyond your diet, it is also important to reduce the stress in your life. The best ways to do this, according to Dr. Hoover, are to take daily sunbaths, getting fresh air by exercising outdoors, getting 7-8 hours of sleep per night, and spending 10 minutes a day outdoors with our bare feet on the soil.

Dr. Hoover's Testimony section has one feel-good story about a woman who was given less than a week to live. Once she was convinced into seeing Dr. Hoover, she was in little to no pain and walking over a mile every day. Her doctor was astounded at how she was able to turn around without any medication. For some odd reason this story is Dr. Hoover's only available testimony.
On another section of his website he offers a free e-book. In the book are chapters on how to cure AIDS, Anemia, Arthritis, Cancer, Diabetes, Headaches, High Blood Pressure, Osteoporosis, and others. Personally I'm hoping there is a cure for the hiccups. The fact that he offers all of this information free of charge to the general public is pretty remarkable. I would imagine with cures to all of these common maladies he'd be able to make quite a bit of money with this kind of information.
