It's so simple

What, would you rather it were some complicated process, involving many trips to the doctor and lots of dietary supplement pills?

“	But Naaman went away angry and said, "I thought that he would surely come out to me and stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, wave his hand over the spot and cure me of my leprosy. Are not Abana and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than any of the waters of Israel? Couldn't I wash in them and be cleansed?" So he turned and went off in a rage. Naaman's servants went to him and said, "My father, if the prophet had told you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? How much more, then, when he tells you, 'Wash and be cleansed'!" So he went down and dipped himself in the Jordan seven times, as the man of God had told him, and his flesh was restored and became clean like that of a young boy.	”

CHIP

“	The concept that Western diseases are lifestyle related, and therefore potentially preventable and reversible, is the most important medical discovery of the 20th century.	”
—Denis Burkitt, MD, England

“	I would like to take this opportunity to recommend Dr. Diehl (and the CHIP Program). Throughout his life, Dr. Diehl has been a keen worker on the health maintenance side of medicine. Through his writing, seminars, and programs, he has brought a very powerful message to all who would listen in how to use diet and exercise, reflection on the more important things in life, to prevent the number one killer in our society--atherosclerotic diseases--such as heart attacks, strokes, peripheral vascular diseases and cancers.	”
—William P. Castelli, MD, NIH; Former Director – Framingham Heart Study

“	This CHIP Program, to my way of thinking, can potentially affect the treatment of western diseases in a more cost-effective and outcome-effective manner better than any other strategy I know.	”
—T. Colin Campbell, PhD; Cornell University, U.S. Mastermind of China Project

“	As Medical Director of the SwedishAmerican Health System's Center for Complementary Medicine and Clinical Professor of Medicine at University of Illinois College of Medicine-Rockford, I have personally witnessed the transformation CHIP participants experience in arresting, reversing, and preventing chronic western diseases. Indeed, CHIP has been recognized as a significant contributor to the Rockford community's overall health and has been awarded an "Excellence in Academic Medicine" grant from the state of Illinois.	”
—Roger Greenlaw, MD, Rockford, IL Clinical Professor of Medicine, University of Illinois, Medical Director, SwedishAmerican Center for Complementary Medicine

“	If implemented on a national scale, the CHIP program could improve the health status of people in North America more than all the efforts of modern technological medicine combined.	”
