"Genes are not your fate, they are the hand you’re dealt;
your health status reflects the way that you’ve played that hand.
Your health status is NOT due to the number of drugs you take, nor how many surgeries or radiation you get.
It depends on your lifestyle and consumption patterns."
from Howard Straus' podcast description, May 20th, 2013

"Stress does not cause disease, our response to stress does.
When you are under a lot of stress you tend to drop off in your care of your health."
from Howard Straus' podcast, June 26th, 2017, time index 21:40

"Cancer is the body's response to poor nutrition and toxic environment."
from Howard Straus' podcast, June 4th, 2018, time index 28:07

Why? Use Suncooked Juice Foods Daily! by Dr. Jesse Mercer Gehman N.D., M.N. 1959

book page 73
"...with fresh calve's liver; and the more recent use of
raw liver in the treatment of cancer by the late Max Gerson,
M.D., which he used in conjunction with liberal amounts of
fresh vegetables and their juices, is further confirmation."

"But then man began to use so-called
science for preserving foods with the result that eventually it
was found something was missing, and his super fixed foods
would not support llife
Cooking was unduly applied, and certain life elements
were altered. Vitamins and minerals were greatly diminished
but not completely destroyed, except in one or two instances
so far as is known. But it appears the active life giving factor
was destroyed. Cooked peas, beans, or lentils provide food to
sustain life, but they can not be made to sprout, they can not
reproduce themselves in the soil as the life element is destroyed.
The life element is killed."

Read Dr. Andrew Saul's story about visiting the old Jackson Hospital in 1979.

'Tis Nature cures the sick;
Like God, she touches weakly things, and they
Revive, and put forth wondrous beauty. Bring
Your sick and suffering ones, where gently she
Can handle and caress, and nurse them. Then
Their forms, though delicate and frail, shall grow
To strength and large endurance.

MY METHODS OF TREATING THE SICK.
THERE are two ways of treating human invalids;
the one by means which are abnormal or unnatural,
and in which agents are sought to be used, which are
of such a nature or character as, when used by persons
in health, make them sick or tend to make them sick;
the other, by means which are normal or natural, and
which confines itself to the use of agents, instrumentalities
and influences, whose effect on the human body,
in health, is to keep it in health. The former way I
discard; the latter way I accept and follow.

Nature's Healing Grasses by H. E. Kirschner M.D. 1960

Librarian's Note: Charlotte Gerson wrote about the dangers of cancer patients using Alfalfa sprouts.
Mature leafy greens should always be used.

from "The Evolution of the Gerson Therapy" by Charlotte Gerson Nov/Dec 2008 newsletter page #4
"...• We tried (and rejected) alfalfa sprouts
that contain, as was later shown by animal
research, an immature, toxic protein
(l-canavanine) that damages the immune
system. It is a tantalizing hint to sprouts’
toxicity that animals don’t eat sprouts!..."

Tribute to Dr. Max Gerson from the book The Genial Seed by Giuliano Dego

"Those who say they would like to help, often tell me that

they cannot. They regret not being able to assist me for fear of

losing their position in hospitals and laboratories. I have long

abandoned thoughts of attaining any kind of recognition, nonetheless

I continue on my way ...."

                     From a letter of Dr. Max Gerson to Dr. Albert Schweitzer,

                     October 1st, 1954.

"I see in him one of the most eminent medical geniuses in

the history of medicine .... Those he cured will now attest to the

truth of his ideas .... "

                                                 From a letter of Dr. Albert Schweitzer

                                                 to Mrs. Gerson, March 10th, 1959.

 

Socrates and Jesus Christ were put to death publicly as blasphemers,

and so have been many who dared to oppose the most

notorious abuses of the mind and body of man. But persecution

is not refutation, not even triumph. Dr. Max Gerson was probably

happier with his patients and in the seclusion of his study and

of his heart than the most despotic of his assailants could ever

be in their palaces of glass and alchemy. His work has indicated

a way towards the understanding of the physical and mental

sanity, or insanity, of mankind that goes far deeper than any

interpretation given by the philosophers.

Dr. Gerson's suffering for conscience's sake, the record of his

extraordinary successes, and his courageous and lonely fight

against the forces of organized medicine will in due time make

more proselytes than the example of those who in their oath,

"First do no harm", insult the world, betraying the name of

Hippocrates. The line of defectors from orthodox thinking has

already begun.

As an ex-Gerson patient myself, and in the fashion of the

poets of antiquity, with these occasional lines I wish to extend

a thought to the numberless legions of those who died in vain,

to their families and all men of good will who tried to help and

were defeated. My lines of tribute are addressed to them, to

Dr. Max Gerson, and to the many Gerson patients who right now

are struggling in solitude.

I have no wish to trample on the dishonoured; but it would

be well if the adherents to cliques from whence the tyrants spring

abated a little of the technological arrogance which, applied to

man, as opposed to machines, has already become the longest

standing crime against humanity.
