Story

   BJ had suffered from asthma from about age 4. He also had
allergies to wheat and grass, and was on spray medication for his
asthma.

   Fortunately for him, BJ's family had found out about the
Gerson Therapy. His father had already profited from the treatment
by losing some 45 unwanted pounds. He also was able to
discontinue his high cholesterol medication within a few days
after starting on the treatment, his cholesterol level had been
halved without drugs.

   As for Lynn, BJ's mother, she had once suffered from multiple
problems: stomach troubles, poor absorption, acid reflux, chronic
diarrhea, chronic infections, eczema and psoriasis. All kinds of
drugs for the acid reflux problem didn't help. For one month,
Pepsid helped, but then all the problems came back. She had also
gained a great deal of weight after childbirth.

   Lynn started the Gerson Therapy little by little. Slowly she saw
increasing improvements. She lost a good deal of weight without
being hungry; her eyesight improved and she could use less
powerful glasses and her stomach and intestinal problems
disappeared.

   Because both she and her husband had had such good experience
overcoming their health problems through the Gerson
Therapy, BJ's mother gradually took away his milk and milk
products (such as cheese, pastries made with milk products, and
ice-cream) and his asthma slowly improved.

   After one month, the big improvement in BJ was obvious. His
asthma attacks were now very rare. While he used to be lethargic,
he had much better energy and his breathing was much improved.
He still had some allergies - however he was not on the full
Gerson Therapy. Probably the reason for this was that he was at
school and unable to follow the treatment completely.
