what exactly is gerson therapy?

[HowardStraus]

The Gerson Therapy, attacks chronic disease at its causes: a combination of nutritional deficiency and toxicity. By reversing those two conditions, the body gets the tools with which to repair itself.

Hyperalimentation, supplementation, detoxification are the bases. 13 fresh pressed organic juices a day, 3 large organic vegan meals, coffee enemas to detox, vitamin, enzyme and mineral supplements.

The Therapy is detailed in "Healing the Gerson Way," by Charlotte Gerson and Beata Bishop.

@BlueEagle8 That was a cute, if ineffective use of the "Excluded middle" logical fallacy. No one said eating a healthy diet was quackery, only trying to cure cancer through diet alone, but hey, why let little details like what your opponent is actually saying get in the way of your retorts?

DR. MAX GERSON >>> BRILLIANT MAN>>>

[StephenB1928]

If skeptical of Gerson, watch the movie. If still skeptical, could do research. All I see here is rude comments and arguments back and forth. Personally I feel sorry for ppl who keep undermining patient's recoveries without actually realizing how much the ideas behind Gerson vs. conventional treatments alone makes sense. It's not just detox, it's nutrition too; certain things work for different health issues. In the US, I don't think enough research is going towards what benefits patients most.

@Jocelyn59961 "Let me guess: You vote Republican and believe that global warming is nonexistent."

Wrong on both counts. Try sticking to verifiable facts and not personal attacks if you want to defend medical claims.

"I have known people cured of diabetes"

Then why haven't their case studies been published? Where's the evidence of your claim? Why should I take YOU at your WORD with no evidence whatsoever?

[Jocelyn59961]

@halleyscomet Let me guess: You vote Republican and believe that global warming is nonexistent.

Charlotte Gerson states it very well in this video.

Personally, I have known people cured of diabetes by the Gerson Institute method, but if you want to believe paying for medicine or needles is best, then they know they have you - you are a sucker (I mean customer) of theirs for life. They will love you because you will be lining their pockets with cash!!

@ray34iyf "you want more proof?"

You haven't offered any proof yet, just an unverifiable testimonial from an anonymous source. How do I know your "improvement" is genuine, and not just confirmation bias and the placebo effect? How do I know you aren't a con artist trying to profit from quackery?

You're asking people to use scientifically debunked quack remedy based upon no evidence other than the marketing claims of those who profit from it.

[ray34iyf]

@halleyscomet your close mindedness only serves to harm you. I have been using Gerson-lite (my own little name :) ) to heal from liver damage and other issues from accutane/lexapro use (basically p drugs that nearly killed me) and I am healing brilliantly. My skin has improved dramatically, my circulation throughout my limbs has gone from horrible to the best I've ever had, my energy is very high, I need little sleep, kidneys/liver no longer hurt... you want more proof? Proof is in the results

@ray34iyf "But if you actually open your mind, go see The Gerson Miracle movie. "

I've seen it. It's a bunch of bullshit consisting of nothing more than unverified marketing claims.

[halleyscomet]

@ray34iyf "well looks like we have a lackey for big pharma and the drug companies"

Riiight. Because only big pharma agents ask for evidence beyond the marketing claims of the quacks pushing Gerson.

Why is it you guys make NO evidence demands of quacks yet refuse to consider clinical trials to be evidence?

@timhenson08

LOL! ... and back up my claim?? ..are you serious? You are a lunatic. So I'm assuming continuing smoking, letting oneself continued to be exposed to radiation and polution and eating junkfood is a good route to go? Forget eating how every other living creature in the world eats and forget stoppage of doing things that harm us. Apparently that's quackery. Amazing. Do you have any idea about what you are calling 'quackery' by the way? Nah, didn't think so.

[ray34iyf]

@timhenson08 well looks like we have a lackey for big pharma and the drug companies. honestly, if you don't have enough common sense to see how this works, then this is all wasted on you. when you get cancer, go to your doctors and let them poison you and see how well that works for you. good luck.
