| An
Alternative Approach to Healing from Degenerative Disease: A True Story that Needs to be Told A Message from Kevin Gianni Author, Health Advocate, and Host of "The Renegade Health Show" |
| Since I spend
a lot of time reading articles about both food companies creating mutant,
patent-able seeds and diet companies selling placebo pills online, I
usually am not thrown off balance too often. But in a trip to the Gerson Institute in San Diego a few months ago, I discovered something that shocked me. It wasn't a miraculous story of recovery using natural approaches (though the Gerson Institute definitely has these) or a story of the various industries threatening a tried and testing method of helping the body heal itself (yep, they have these too!). This was different. First, I have to give you some background. When we set out on our tour around the country, I was set on meeting Charlotte Gerson. Why? After I had discovered some literature about the Gerson Therapy, I spoke with Charlotte, and the interview blew me away. Of the over 200 people or so whom I have interviewed in the last 3 years, she was one of the most electric people I have ever met. That's saying a lot, since I've interviewed New York Times bestselling authors, international speakers and notable professors - among others. Who is Charlotte Gerson? Charlotte is the daugher of Dr. Max Gerson, who in the 1920s started using natural methods to treat degenerative disease. After his passing, she took the torch and continued to teach Dr. Gerson's therapy to people from all over the world. The story about Dr. Gerson is quite remarkable. When Charlotte tells it, I hang on the edge of my seat, even though I know the ending already. Dr. Gerson was having migraine headaches that he could not shake. He, a medically trained doctor at wits end, turned to nutrition to see if that would work when all the medications didn't. Using potatoes, carrot juice and other vegetables (a crude version of the modern therapy), Dr. Gerson found immediate relief from his migranes. Being a scientific type, Dr. Gerson wanted to make sure that it wasn't just a fluke that he was healed. So, he started to use his protocol on other migraine sufferers. Guess What? It started to work. So he then started to share his findings with the community. One day a woman who had received the protocol from Dr. Gerson came back for an appointment and explained that her migranes were gone. But, something else had happened since the time she had started the treatment. Before seeing Dr. Gerson, she had sores from a tuberculosis infection. Once she started the therapy, these sores started to heal. So Dr. Gerson, a scientific type, started to test his therapy on people with tuberculosis. And, Guess What? Yes, it worked! So then, he started to share this new insight with everyone he knew. Soon after, a patient came to him with cancer and asked Dr. Gerson if he would give the protocol for cancer. Dr. Gerson told the patient, "No," since he had never had a patient with cancer take the protocol. But the patient was persistent and eventually convinced Dr. Gerson to give the protocol. And, Guess What? Yes, the patient was able to heal from disease. The stories go on and on like this, up until this very day. Now, most people who hear stories like this become a little skeptical… I think it's important to be skeptical. There are a lot of people who believe all alternative practices are 100% effective. When people ask me about this, I give them a flat-out... "NO!" But most people who don't know anything or little about alternative practices (most media and Western medical schools), give them a bad (read: AWFUL) rap. When it comes to healing degenerative disease, many people in the Western world are more than suspicious of alternative practices. In fact, many downright blast practices that aren't drugs or surgery. I'm not here to argue one way or the other. I just think many people deserve the chance to hear a second opinion. Since Dr. Gerson started sharing his therapy in the 1920's, thousands and thousands of people have had success. Enough to give his protocol serious consideration. Here are some case studies taken directly from the Gerson Institute Website, that show people are healing themselves... PATRICIA AINEY, PANCREAS CANCER SPREAD TO LIVER (Michael Landon's cancer), SPLEEN AND GALL BLADDER In pain, vomiting blood. Pancreas cancer biopsied January, 1986. CAT scan showed tumor in liver, spleen, gall bladder. Given hopeless prognosis. Began Gerson Therapy in Mexican hospital March, 1986. Patient says "complete turnaround in 10 days." Recovery shown by CAT scan 6 months later amazed her Canadian doctor. Enjoys work, grandchildren. Feels "really good" nine years later. GEORGE BIRNIE, 73, PANCREATIC CANCER January, 1983 CAT scan showed tumor in body and neck of pancreas, probably into head of pancreas. Top Victoria, B.C., Canada doctors said 100% certainty of pancreatic cancer. Conventional therapy hopeless. Began Gerson Therapy in Mexican hospital February, 1983. Later CAT scans show recovery. In good health, active 14 years later. GAIL ALLEN BOGUE, RECURRING BONE CANCER Declared terminal at age seven. Lump removed from leg bone (fibula) and biopsied: giant cell sarcoma. Pain and tumor back in one year. Dr. suggested leg amputation, not to cure cancer, just to reduce pain. Parents refused. Began Gerson Therapy with Dr. Gerson June, 1957. Tumor down by half, pain nearly gone in one week. Alive and well, two children, 40 years later. ANNA WOMACK, SPREADING BREAST CANCER Right mastectomy February, 1978. Biopsy: adenocarcinoma nine months later, tumor under left arm. Within a few more weeks, several tumors in left breast. Started Gerson Therapy November, 1978 in Mexican hospital. Lumps gone in 18 months. Now excellent energy, sense of well-being, no recurrence of tumors. Alive and well 19 years later. SHIRLEY TICE, 55, SPREADING BREAST CANCER Biopsied. Multiple deep tumors partly removed. Two doctors insisted on mastectomy. Warned children she might not live six months. Visited Gerson Therapy hospital. Impressed by hopeful, positive, pain free patients off their pain drugs. Very healthy, active, thankful, cancer free 12 years later. Enjoys children and grandchildren. WILLIE MAY CHAPPELL, BREAST CANCER SPREAD TO SKULL, SPINE, PELVIS, RIBS, LEG BONE August 1974, biopsy, left breast and 19 lymph nodes removed. Problems continued. Began Laetrile 1975 and Kelley Therapy 1976. By May, 1977 cancer spread to above bones. Began Gerson Therapy in Mexican hospital just after it opened July, 1977. Recovered. Remained well, free of cancer 16 years. Died 1994. And these are just some of the thousands of cases... all from people who dared to get a second opinion and take control of their own situation. So, Let Me Get Back to What Shocked Me… As I was taking a tour of the offices, I noticed a row of dusty boxes sitting above a filing cabinet in the shipping department. Since I'm an inquisitive guy, I take notice of this sort of stuff. I asked what was in the boxes and was told there were "just some old tapes." I took a few boxes down, dusted them off and then asked if I could have a copy of each one of them (14 in all). I wondered if they had any valuable at all, considering where they were being stored. |

| When I got
back to the RV, I realized that I actually had to buy a cassette player!
Yep, that's right, I now had 14 useless cassette tapes since I had no player to listen to them in. I quickly went to Best Buy to find a cassette tape player so I could listen to what was on the tapes. Within just a few minutes of returning home and popping in the first tape, I knew I had stumbled upon a golden archive of health information, which was about to be forgotten. It was shocking that these tapes were basically left for dead on top of that shelf. At the same time, I was thrilled at the discovery and immediately, while the tape was still rolling, emailed those at the Institute to see what we could do to turn these treasures into a format that could be listened to and enjoyed today - or 100 years from now. What you can learn from Charlotte Gerson could change the lives of the people you love... |

Charlotte
Gerson Reveals the Secrets to the Gerson Therapy
|
| When Annmarie
and I left her home after this interview, we literally were blown away.
We'd love for you to get access too it so you can have this valuable
information. Some people ask, "If this information is really effective, why doesn't everyone know about it?" This is a complicated matter that involves more than just the spread of information. One of the major issues is that what the Gerson Institute does is not part of any insurance reimbursement plan. So people who enroll in their medical program do need to pay out of pocket. The other main reason is that the importance of nutrition and lifestyle are not stressed as equally as they should in today's medical schools, leaving doctors to find this out on their own. Luckily many are waking up to this idea.
