The Budwig diet was developed by Dr. Johanna Budvig, an astute clinician with a passion for developing an evidence-based, natural, and effective health approach. Her research on essential fatty acids and the impact of diet and holistic health on disease progression and prevention has inspired conventional physicians and naturopaths' work. Dr. Budwig created more than just a diet: a health plan based on a complete understanding of an individual's physical and emotional needs, as well as the benefits of a nutrient-rich diet and a healthy lifestyle.
