The Fruit Cure: The Story of Extreme Wellness Turned Sour by Jacqueline Alnes Book Review





In The Fruit Cure, Jacqueline Alnes takes readers through different fruit examples and how raw fruit changed their lives. She was a Division One runner during her freshman year of college. She would run in the rain and in the cold and she didn’t care. She began to experience a bad cough and was diagnosed with bronchitis and they gave her medications. She confessed to collapsing and hit her head and had neurological pain. She struggled to practice and kept wanting to run. She had some success and was able to beat her personal best record in running a 5K. Her symptoms would return again and again and no doctor could fix it. She at one point wound up in a wheelchair for several months and went to an epilepsy center. She sought help from an online community where they used fruit-based techniques to heal their bodies.  





 

 

In the book, she looked at Esther Honiball and she lived in South Africa. She exercised regularly and was a lecturer who taught Health. She loved to swim and earned championship titles. She developed a cough which turned into night sweats, chest pain, and weight loss. She was diagnosed with tuberculous. She explained how she followed Cornelius and his special fruit diet. She goes into great detail providing an overview of her memoir. 




 

 

I would recommend this helpful book about her journey with her fruit diet to anyone who is also experiencing a health scare. It was heartbreaking to read about her struggles in her health and how no doctor could help her. I have been there before too and it’s not fun. I liked how she enclosed example of others who also turned to fruit as a cure. 

 

 

 

"I received this book free from Melville House for my honest review.”
