Johanna Budwig

Traditional and Historical Medicine Practitioners

Johanna Budwig was a German biochemist, alternative cancer treatment advocate and writer. A pharmacist holding doctorates in physics and chemistry, she developed from her research on fatty acids a lacto-vegetarian diet that she believed was useful in the treatment of cancer. There is no clinical evidence that the Budwig diet is effective, and it may cause adverse effects.
