Dr. Sebi born Alfredo Bowman on November 26, 1933 in the village of llanga in Spanish Honduras. Dr. Sebi never attended school, not even kindergarten. Instead, he took cues on being obedient to the procession of life from his beloved grandmother, "Mama Hay". Sebi's mother had to leave her young son with his grandmother to obtain work in another town. His early days of play and observation by the river and in the forest, coupled with guidance from his grandmother, afforded Sebi the foundation to be obedient to the Truth in his later life.

Dr. Sebi came to the United States as a self-educated man who was diagnosed with asthma, diabetes, impotency, and obesity. After unsuccessful treatments with conventional doctors, Sebi was lead to an herbalist in Mexico. Finding great healing success from all his ailments, he began creating natural vegetation cell food compounds geared for inter-cellular cleansing and the revitalization of all the cells that make up the human body.

Inspired by the personal healing experience and knowledge he gained, he began sharing the compounds with others, which gave birth to the USHA Research Institute, Dr. Sebi LLC, and the Usha Healing Village located in Laceiba, Honduras.

Sebi is a pathologist, herbalist, biochemist, and naturalist. He has studied and personally observed herbs in America, Latin America, Africa, and the Caribbean, and has developed a unique approach to healing with herbs that is firmly rooted in over 30 years of practical experience. 

I am Dr. Sebi, founder of the USHA Research Institute.For over 28 years, the institute has been successful in curing diseases deemed "incurable" by modern medicine. Through our methodology, A.I.D.S., Sickle Cell Anemia, Lupus, Diabetes, Arthritis, Cancers, Leukemia, Herpes, Epilepsy, Fibroid Tumors, and a host of other diseases have been successfully reversed. At this time, I would like to take this opportunity to give you a brief synopsis of how our premise and methodology achieves successful results in eradicating diseases. This brief, but concise illustration will reveal our premise and methodology to be consistent. 

According to Western medical research, diseases are a result of the host being infected with a "germ", "virus",  or "bacteria". In their approach in treating these "
"infestations", inorganic, carcinogenic chemicals are employed. Our research immediately uncovers flaws in their premise and methodology through basic deductive reasoning. By consistently utilizing the same premise and methods, they have consistently yielded ineffective results. In essence, in the 400-year tradition of the European philosophy of medicine, their approach in treating disease has yet to produce any cures.

In contrast, as we examine the African approach to disease, it diametrically opposes the present Western approach. Specifically, theAfrican Bio-mineral Balancerefutes the germ/virus/bacteria premise. Our research reveals that all manifestation of disease finds it genesis when and where the mucous membrane has been compromised. For example, if there is excess mucous in the bronchial tubes, the disease is Bronchitis; if it is in the lungs, the disease is Pneumonia; in the pancreatic duct, it is Diabetes; in the joints Arthritis.

All of the African Bio-mineral Balance compounds are comprised of natural plants; which means its constitution is of an alkaline nature. This is important- and instrumental in our success in reversing pathologies- because disease can only exist in an environment that is acid; thus it is inconsistent to utilize inorganic substances when treating disease because they are of an acid base. Only consistent use of natural botanical remedies will effectively cleanse and detoxify a diseased body, reversing it to its intended alkaline state. Our system of nutrition goes even further. In addition to removing the  accumulation of years of toxins, theAfrican Bio-mineral Balancereplaces depleted minerals and rejuvenates damaged cell tissue eroded by the acid, diseased state. 

The primary organs of elimination are the skin, liver, gall bladder, lymp glands, kidneys and the colon. If all toxins are eliminated from the above mentioned organs they will be recycled throughout the entire body, manifesting disease. Eventually the body breaks down in the weakest organs due to its inability to dispel the influence of toxins. The colon is the most important organ and must be cleansed by detoxifying before any disease can be reversed. If only the colon is cleansed and detoxified the other major organs with be left toxic and you will still have disease in the body. It is with Dr. Sebi's intra-cellular dextoxifying cleanse that each cell in the body will be purified. The body will then rebuild and rejuvenation will take place.

Dr. Sebi offers the Bio-Mineral Therapy which is a natural vegetation cell food. A living subtance, which nourishes the body and detoxifies at the cellular level. One must consume life to maintain and sustain itself-not Death.
