More than 60 international experts on HIV/Aids have called for the resignation of the South African health minister because of her stance on Aids.
Manto Tshabalala-Msimang tells those with HIV to eat garlic and beetroot.
In a letter sent to President Thabo Mbeki, the academics called the government's health policy "disastrous and pseudo-scientific".
"Many people [in South Africa] are dying unnecessarily" because they cannot get Aids drugs, the letter says.
South Africa is one of the countries worst affected by Aids, with some 5.5m people with HIV.
