vegetables often stem from views of the vitamin content and their impacts, there is evidence that suggests that there is more to the positive impacts of fruits and vegetables than
just their vitamin content. As a result, it is beneficial to consider the impacts of whole foods in the healing process, especially in comparison to typical (and often overused)
vitamin supplementation. Because vitamin supplementation (especially in the form of the common use of multivitamin supplements) can result in the accumulation of some vitamins in the body in toxic
levels, the use of dietary whole foods is important for conditions like Hepatitis B. Problem Statement Native people have always used whole plant foods as medicine, with
