Through his research, Dr. Sebi believed that blood and
starch in the diet are the main reasons for ill-health, specifically because
both cause acidity within the body.
“On the whole, an acid body will create
toxic mucous and congest the system — leading to inflammation, whereas an
alkaline pH will do just the opposite and support vitality,” he said.
Master Healer and Herbalist
A pathologist, biochemist and herbalist
who adopted the “African approach” to health care, Dr. Sebi came to the
U.S. from Honduras with a lofty goal: to help heal humanity of some of
the most deadly diseases to afflict mankind.
According to his website, Sebi
“spent decades studying plants in North South and Central America,
Africa and the Caribbean” and created a line of natural
disease-combating “cell food compounds used for inter-cellular cleansing
and cellular revitalization”. For nearly 30 years, he reversed a range
of ‘incurable’ ailments with this treatment plan.
“[Dr. Sebi] was born Alfredo Bowman in Honduras in 1933 and learned the craft of herbal healing from his grandmother. Sebi also studied with a Mexican herbalist and began a homeopathic line of products dubbed “Cell Food.”“One of Sebi’s claims to fame is his belief that rendering the body into an “alkaline state” makes it impossible for disease and ailments to exist. Sebi also created vegetable cell compounds in order to fortify the body. He also claimed to have a cure for AIDS and cancer along with a long list of other related cures.” [source]
