Re:superfoods cure diseases - 2008/07/14 00:57
Even though there are substances within plants, that are used as foods, I don't think there are actually foods that cure diseases. It usually requires the active substance be concentrated for it to be curative.
That isn't to say that there aren't foods that can relieve minor problems. We all know what prunes are good for. The Vitamin C in lemons and oranges will prevent or cure scurvy...but that is the action of one substance found within the fruit...Vitamin C, which can be isolated and concentrated for consumption in pill form.
