Dr. Gabriel Cousens is a live food nutritionist and author of There is A Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21 Day+ Program, essentially the program used by the 6 individuals in this documentary. This program is designed to reset the DNA through green foods and juices, specific supplements, and a diet rich in organic, nutrient-dense, vegan, mineral-rich, living foods over a period of twenty-one days.
In the film, the study participants gather at The Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center in Patagonia, Arizona. There they agree to give up their Standard American Diet for 30 days and to replace it with a diet consisting entirely of vegan and organic raw foods. The goal is to reverse their disease without pharmaceutical medication.
Soon after beginning the program, all of the participants witness their blood sugar levels begin to drop without medication. The story only gets better from there!
