That is for sure. You know, Berg often talked about natural health food remedies too, but he was so hypocritical about it. When poor Peter Puppet was dying of cancer and had found a natural health cure that had actually cured others, Berg told him not even to trust in his health food "instead of God," so Peter obediently took his "stand of faith". And died. He was then later villified for not having enough faith.
That upsets me deeply. I know others who got sick and instead of being helped, were dumped to die. The feeling was, "you're no longer useful to us. We're an army not a hospital, so you're on your own now."
Like you say, there are natural cures, and a lot of natural cures is eating right in the first place so that you don't even get sick. There was an effort that direction in the Family after the "Health Revolution" but after a while about all most members knew was that white sugar and pork were forbidden. Glad you're getting educated on this subject. It's very needed.
