In recent years, among cancer patients, a "Five Elements Vegetable Soup" made from radish leaves, carrots, burdock, white radish, and shiitake mushrooms has become extremely popular. It is hailed as a "star recipe" that can prevent and fight cancer, and even cure all diseases. However, many cancer patients who have consumed it not only did not see improvement but also experienced worsening of their condition.
Reporters learned that the creator of the Five Elements Vegetable Soup, Mr. Hideaki Ishii from Japan, is actually like the Japanese version of Zhang Wuben (a discredited Chinese health guru). He was exposed over a decade ago and was arrested for practicing medicine without a license. Experts point out that cancer patients who persistently consume Five Elements Vegetable Soup or other vegetarian diets are prone to develop nutritional imbalances and malnutrition.

It is understood that the so-called Five Elements Vegetable Soup refers to a health food therapy method proposed by Hideaki Ishii, the director of the Institute of Preventive Medicine Chemistry in Japan. It is said that he selected five vegetables from 1,500 types of food: green for radish leaves, red for carrots, yellow for burdock, white for white radishes, and black for shiitake mushrooms, representing wood, fire, earth, metal, and water respectively. The preparation of the Five Elements Vegetable Soup is simple: wash and cut into large pieces 1/4 of a white radish, 1/4 of a bunch of radish leaves, 1/2 of a carrot, 1/4 of a burdock root, and 1-2 shiitake mushrooms. Add three times the volume of water, bring to a boil, then simmer for 1-2 hours before drinking.
Hideaki Ishii claims that the five-colored health soup aligns with the traditional Chinese medical principle of the five elements harmonizing with the five organs and six腑(fu) organs: black foods nourish the kidneys, white foods nourish the lungs, green foods nourish the liver, red foods nourish the blood vessels, and yellow foods nourish the spleen and stomach. Although these five vegetables are not Chinese herbs, drinking the soup regularly can promote the proliferation of normal body cells, increase the number of white blood cells and platelets in the blood, and triple the growth of T-cells, thereby enhancing human immunity, which can prevent and treat cancer. According to this theory, the Five Elements Vegetable Soup is not only considered a good remedy for preventing and treating cancer but is also revered as a divine medicine that can cure all diseases.
