The Breuss Juice Diet: A Deep Dive into the 42-Day Austrian « Cancer Cure » 🇦🇹
The « Breuss Juice Cure » is one of the most famous and controversial regimens in the world of alternative medicine. Developed by Austrian naturopath Rudolf Breuss, it promises a radical detoxification and has been a subject of intense debate for decades.
Let’s explore its origins, recipe, claimed benefits, and the critical scientific perspective.
🧃 What is the Breuss Juice Cure?
The protocol is a strict, 42-day liquid fast. Participants consume only:
A specific homemade vegetable juice mixture (about 500ml per day).
Herbal teas (like sage, St. John’s Wort, and kidney tea).
No solid food, protein, or fats.
Breuss’s Theory: He believed that cancer cells feed on solid food proteins and that by starving the body of these, the malignant cells would die while the body was nourished by the micronutrients in the juice.
