I do not think that I said the Gerson therapy is heavily slanted towards the use of fructose via juices, only that the protocol included fresh juices that contained high levels of fructose.
This carrot/apple-juice combination is one of the two "core" juices used in the Gerson Therapy. It is easy on the digestive system, and is usually taken in larger quantities than any other juice (five glasses per day is the normal regimen).
It therefore raises the question as to WHY a high fructose combination of juices would be included in this anti-cancer regimen, if fructose is associated with feeding cancer?

Natural Hygiene discovered many decades ago that allergies to certain foods or foodstuffs are the result of a bodily toxemic condition resulting from retained metabolic waste, so once this condition of the body is eradicated via water-only-fasting or an elimination diet, then allergies tend to disappear. This is something you may wish to investigate further.

I would also like to stress (as DQ has mentioned) there is a huge distinction between HFCS and the fructose found within fruits.
I think it is also significant that between 1970 and 1990, the consumption of HFCS in the U.S. has increased over 1,000 percent: according to an article in the April 2004 issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Also from the study you have quoted.................
"These findings show that cancer cells can readily metabolize fructose to increase proliferation. They have major significance for cancer patients, given dietary REFINED fructose consumption."

So all in all I think it is a mistake to throw ALL fructose into the mix, and include HFCS with naturally occurring fructose as being involved in cancer proliferation.

Take care.
