Ask any doctor and they'll tell you that the best way to stay healthy is to eat well and the right stuff, but no one will tell you that eating ginger will cure your headache or that cabbage would cure breast cancer...

Well, that's a given, no one's thinking they are *the* cure, but only that they help. When I have asthma but not enough to take the medicine I usually drink tea or coca cola and then I feel better

It could also be the famous placebo though :P
Then again, that saying goes "an apple a day keeps the doctor away". Most of the food in Allwyn's list is part of a very healthy diet which of course contributes to be healthy as a whole, so to speak.
