“People come to me with leukemia. They say, ‘Dr. Sebi, the doctor said that my child will die with leukemia. What can you offer that the physician did not offer?’  I tell them that all I have to offer is a nutritional approach to disease. We begin by cleansing away the toxins that are invading the whole biology.”

—Dr. Sebi, November 2005

There’s more about how Dr. Sebi cures diseases considered incurable in this celebration of my interview with him in La Ceiba, Honduras, twenty years ago and this new edition of Seven Days in Usha Village: A Conversation With Dr. Sebi. In the new chapter, “Dr. Sebi Shared More That Week in Honduras: His Methodology,” you’ll read, among other things, why sickle cell anemia, primarily found in Black people, is essentially leukemia and anemia in other races. Iron deficiency is the culprit.

The Prologue and end of the book have changed, with a full circle tribute to Dr. Sebi by the person who helped launch his career in the U.S., Adio Kuumba Akil. She met him for the first time at the Garden Holistic Institute in St. Croix, Virgin Islands, while learning natural healing and food therapy.

Seven Days in Usha Village: A Conversation With Dr. Sebi: 20 Years Later continues to shine a light on Dr. Sebi’s natural healing methodology, his raison d’être, his thinking-outside-the-box prescription for optimal health—at any age. It also celebrates his more than forty-year quest to share with the world alternative medicine that healed him (widely known as well as unfamiliar plants) and that same method he used to heal others.
