Added a reference for the study on cancer patients' personality characteristics and their adoption of the Moerman diet, published in the SW. Sri. Med. journal in 1985. This source provides insights into the psychological aspects of patients and physician-patient communication related to dietary interventions in cancer treatment.

"The Moerman diet forbids patients to use sugar and all sugar products, all kinds of meat and fish, potatoes, coffee, tea, and fruit drinks (only fruit juice must be 846 J. F. A. PRLIYN et 01.

The Moerman diet consisted of fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, non-refined cereals, leguminous plants and dairy-products. Moerman also recommended supplemental vitamins and minerals. Dr. Moerman's dietary treatment for cancer is a lactovegetarian diet, with supplements of vitamins A, B, C, D, and E, iodine, and selenium, and which prohibited all meats, alcohol, artificial colorings, cheeses with high fat and salt content, margarine, hydrogenated oils, sugar, salt, white flour, and tobacco. 2003:E0:4F2D:3B75:4165:5326:D1ED:CC6A (talk) 12:25, 1 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
