Foreword
By Doctor Robert H Sorge (N.D. D.O PhD. N.M.D. PhD. MD. PND.)
Doctor of Naturopathic medicine.
I have known Dr Gouri Maharaj for over a quarter century. He has been a student mine for a vast number of years and still considers himself a student. Dr Maharaj is one of the most dedicated people that I know in the field of drugless medicine. His determination to help and make a difference in the lives of people is really impressive. His work “The biogenic secret of food” is indeed and exceptional one and I am certain it will have a great positive impact on the world as a whole.
I have been involved in natural healing since 1940, as a patient, a student, a professor and a naturopathic physician. Being in practice since 1964 has led me to many institutions of drugless medicine and I have been able to identify with many in the field of medicine (both western medicine and natural healing). One of the people who have left a long lasting impression on my mind is Dr Gouri. His ideas and experience resonates far and wide. The biogenic secret of food has brought some research information to light that was just sitting there and was never really brought to the fore front. While this presentation was indeed a difficult and may be at times, an unpopular one, the root cause of all disease is truly lack of proper nutrition.
The point at which everyone should begin the practice of health is nutrition. Nutrition does not only refer to the food value in food stuffs but the food value of food after it is prepared and ready to eat. Recalling my own past when medical doctors gave up on me and claiming that they ‘did everything that medical science could do,’ it was then I was introduce to natural healing processes by Dr Bernard McFadden, doctor or naturopathy. It was indeed nutritional support and natural medicine that have brought me back to optimal health. This man became my mentor so I understand fully when Dr Gouri looks upon me as his mentor.
His previous book ‘Diabetes reversing it naturally’ has indeed made a great impact on our nation and the world as a whole. It has helped thousands of men and women get this killer disease under control without harmful drug medicine with their horrible side effects. His accomplishment is not only realized in The United States but internationally to the astonishment of many in the orthodox drug profession.
The book ‘biogenic secret of food is indeed a reflection of years of research by the author. The pains taken to accumulate some of the data in the tables are beyond the expression of words.
Proper nutrition is most essential for building and repairing the human systems. The absence of vitamins, trace minerals and the basic foods spells out disease and disaster. No human being or living organism is capable of living a healthy lifestyle without understanding the biogenic secret of food itself.
Having studied naturopathic medicine, electric medicine, psychology and spirituality (along with a host of other disciplines), I firmly believe that no living organism can reach to its peak of health unless they understand what the food or supplement will do for them. The next step is to utilize it properly. Many people try to get ‘instant gratification’ by use of natural medicine or supplements and when they realize it may be a slow process they abandon the programs. If you abandon your nutrition how could you get better health? Biogenic secret of food shows you how to stick to your programs and do the things that your body is crying out and begging you to do in order to attain better health.
Dietary supplements and special detoxification is necessary for better health. We must clean the pots and pans which we use for cooking or else the food itself will not be fit for consumption.
Nutrition is very important in the life of anyone. Dr Gouri suggests that real food takes little time to prepare and will definitely be tasty and nutritious at the same time. Our nation needs to be educated along the path of nutrition; our world needs to be educated in the methods of preparation of nutritious food and drinks. We are bombarded with so much fast foods today that the world is suffering from eating empty calories. The result is so many lifestyle diseases that we are unable to cope with them. Our national debt is growing daily and we look towards drug medicine for the answer. The answer lies within our realm. It is nutrition along with proper detoxification and proper implementation of wellness programs that can get us out of the deep dark hole that have been dug by fast food and improper cooking. We need to educate ourselves and our off springs in the field of nutrition. While we may not have all the answers today our aspirations will certainly help to pave a better future for our nation and the world as a whole. The work of Dr Gouri Maharaj is indeed an eye-opening one and is certainly a landmark that will stand for many years to come. It will act as a rock upon which many may be able to build their houses and take great care to maintain them with a body, mind and spirit approach to healthy living.
Rising from the state of a weak and sick child to Mr. North America in 1959, I firmly believe in nutrition and do know first hand the great benefits of it. As a practicing naturopathic doctor I take great pride in nutritional testing at my clinic. Naturopathic fasting and detoxification along with nutrition is a unique combination for health living. I believe as a private practitioner that I have discovered a system that works so well that I want to teach it to others. Dr Gouri is one of the people who realized that and followed closely. His achievements have given me great joy and I am very happy to share in his joy of presenting this wonderful book to the world.
I know it will be welcomed with open arms by all.
Dr Robert H Sorge.
