Anand's story

One blisteringly hot Saturday afternoon in December 2002, at the age of 41, I received a phone call from a man who wanted to buy a car I had for sale. I met the man, sold my car and in the process had a long conversation with him which was to forever change my life. He shared with me that he had healed himself naturally from cancer and claimed at least 97% of all disease could be healed naturally, without drugs or medical intervention and that 75% to 95% of all mental and emotional disturbances are caused by biochemical imbalances caused from poor dietary choices.

Runi's story

My story with food began when I was 12. Like many teenagers I was concerned about my weight. I wasn't actually overweight; I just didn't like my body and thought I would be happier if I was slimmer. I found dieting quite easy. It was easy to control my calories and my will was strong enough to overcome any temptation. Dieting gave me a high and I loved it. I felt in control, more powerful and much more confident. People respected me and I loved the attention I received being thin and successful at losing weight. It seemed that dieting was the answer to all my prayers.
