Subject: [cancercured] gerson diet


Hi trudy,


I am trying to figure out how to answer on this message board. I did
the gerson diet at home with the help of several people locally who
where also doing the diet.The gerson clinic has a list of people,
like myself now,over 200 worldwide, that act as support people .It is
very helpful to find someone near you to talk in person to and maybe
meet in person.If you are interested in finding someone near you ,you
can e mail the clinic for info.I also have the support group list.


We just one day started to meet every few weeks at my house and over
time had a dozen or so people each time supporting each other in our
recovery.Its been a year now since I have done this , some people
recovered and a few did not. It would be my guess that the recovery
rate was better than the people who do chemo.


The gerson diet is complex and the best way to learn it is probably
their video. If you can afford to go to the clinic, about $5,000 a
week, you get a doctor to ask questions and follow your progress.By
the way the clinic has had over 8,000 people do the diet over the
years. Many, like myself did not go to the clinic to go on the
diet,but they list me as one of their patients anyway. You can find
out about gerson at www.gerson.org.


I will tell you about two others that treat with diet.
www.hacres.com is a christian group that has free newsletters and
many people claiming recovery from cancer. Dr. Dean Ornish has a
clinical trial for prostate cancer using diet and other natural
methods.

Hi Donald,

thank you for offering to share your knowledge about the Gerson Therapy.

I'm new to this (actually this is my first posting ever in Curezone :-) and I don't know anyone who's familiar with the theraphy. I'm a pretty healthy person for my age (female, 50) but I am convinced that I will solve a couple of health issues if I manage to detox my liver.

I've attended a lecture by Charlotte Gerson in Toronto a few weeks ago and I'm reading her book. The diet looks straight forward to me (and I hope I have the strength to follow it for at least a couple of months).

My question to you is about the supplements. How do you go about getting the potassium, the Lugol, etc.? Do you buy this stuff at health food stores? What brand exactly? Or do you have to order this at a pharmacy? Have you taken anything else like liver extract? This aspect seems a bit strange to me. Do I have to take supplements if I don't suffer from cancer or any other major ailment? Will the juices, a vegetarian diet and the coffee enemas be enough if my purpose is just prevention (with the purpose of cleaning the liver a bit)?

I'm looking forward to your views.

Thank you.

hi donald storm, my name is marian. I'm 24 years old and have recently been diagnosed with breast cancer. Since being diagnosed, I have had an operation to remove the breast tissue(skin saving mastectomy) and all my lymph nodes on one side. The next step for me is the one I'm having the most trouble with...chemotherapy dosen't sound to me like it is something worth having. Especially since reading of the gerson therapy and other people's experiences with it. If you have the time to talk with me via email or over the phone, which ever is more convenient for you it would be of great help. Thankyou for your story Marian.

Hi Donald,

My father has recently started on the gerson diet, after being diagnosed with lung cancer. He was told by doctors that there was nothing that they could do for him.

We live in England and have found someone to guide us through the diet, and we have started it at home with the help of my Mother!

After reading the Gerson book, I was begining to think more positively about a chance of survival. However I became more sceptical as I began to do more research on the web, finding articals warning people that the enemas could create liver infections, people could die of extream weekness known as a 'flare up' and stories of people who have visited the gerson clinic and found that the survival rate was a small 5 %.

I understand that you have to be a fighter to take on this vigourous routine and that there are bound to be a range of success stories and also stories of thoes who sadly didnt make it.

I just wandered what your opinion of the gerson diet is, as it would be lovely to hear from someone who has succeded with the diet, instead of just hearing or reading about it.

Have you experienced times of extream weekness, or any problems which have been enduced through the enemas? How long have you been on the diet?

It would be fantastic to hear from you, thankyou for taking the time to read this e-mail!

Dear sir

i am writing to you about a diet that i have been recommended for stomach cancer (gastric cancer), i have been told about this by a medical herbalist form Burnley, lancashire, in the united kingdom. He has recommended the gersons diet to me and i was wondering if you had any information of what this would consist of. If you could forward any of this information to me then i would really appreciate it.

Yours faithfully John Chalmers

Donald,
I have been using Gerson for 4 months. I would love to talk with you about your journey with the treatment. Would it be possible for me to call you. If so, please email me. Thanks,
Jerry
