If you have given up on modern medicine and believe that accepted treatments are just ways for the medical profession to kill off their patients, then the ten step health plan devised by God and promoted by Dr Lorraine Day in her books and DVD’s could give you hope, if you find that you or a loved one have a self inflicted disease.

Dr Day has managed to become an accepted face on American television, endorsing health supplements and speaking of how she cured herself from cancer. As her cure is not a medicine which she could have patented through the pharmaceutical industry she so vocally despises, she instead sells her own cure through her website in book and DVD format.

However Dr Day advised them that people do not appreciate things which they can get for free, so giving permission for her work to be copied would be like throwing ‘pearls before swine’. She logically adds that if people can afford a TV and DVD player to watch them on then they should be able to afford the
