Gerson therapy

The Gerson Therapy & Juicing

 Cancer is increasing with an alarming ratio because of today’s environmental pollution, chemical containing foods & beverages and increasing interference of technology in our daily routines. According to a research, 7.6 million people die from different types of cancers throughout the world every year. Out of these figures, 4 million people died between the age of 30 years to 70 years. Since its first patient, people tried to cure this deadly disease with different treatments.

One of these treatments is Gerson Therapy, which is first created by Dr Max Gerson in 1920s.The creation of this treatment was accidental because Dr Max was trying to develop a treatment for migraine but was able to cure skin cancer in one of his test subjects. This therapy was actually based on activation of humans body internal ability to heal itself with the help of organic, raw juices, vegetable diets, coffee enemas and other natural supplements.

Dr Max Gerson 1881 - 1959

Today, the Gerson therapy is a well-known natural therapy which is famous due to its successful treatments of not just chronic cancer (such as melanoma, breast cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer, lymphoma and other kinds) but also many other kinds of diseases such as degenerative diseases, heart diseases, arthritis, diabetes, auto-immune disorders & allergies because it is a non-specific treatment that can effectively treat many conditions by healing the body as a whole.

The idea behind this therapy is to provide all necessary means to repair human body and also helps it to flush out all toxins from body that are produced as a result of many diseases and complications. Different characteristics of juices & food used in this therapy helps human body to fight against and repair diseased tissues by providing required nutrients, enzymes and minerals to human body. 

The Gerson Therapy Elements

As I mentioned earlier that Gerson Therapy is a natural treatment that activates the body’s internal ability to heal itself with the help of organic, plants and fruits contained diets, raw juices, coffee enemas and other natural supplements. So the main elements of this therapy is

• Juices

• Gerson food

• Coffee enemas

• Supplements

• Oxygenation

Juices

In Gerson Therapy, human body requirements are supported by taking 15 to 20 pounds of organic grown fruits and vegetables on daily basis. Usually, 1 glass of this juice is taken after every hour up to 13 to 15 glasses of juices daily. Fresh extracted juices from raw fresh fruits and vegetables are the main source to fulfil nutritional needs of the human body in most effective manner because they are easy to digest and absorb by the body. Juices are made up of Carrot, apples and green leafed vegetables.

These juices are used fresh (within one hour of processing) in order to utilized maximum benefits from them. Also to extract juices, usually special kind of juicers like masticating juicers or two step juicers or juicers with hydrolic press is been used because they preserve all the nutrition’s within the juice and didn’t spoil any benefit of juices. Electrical blenders that are usually used in our homes blend juices to a certain level where nutrition’s of juices is destroyed due to heat or over grinding so they are not recommended for this purpose.

Gerson food

Full plants based meals, produced from fresh organically grown fruits, vegetables and whole grains is taken 3 times a day which is usually in the form of salads, cooked vegetables, baked potatoes, soups etc. The traditional Gerson Therapy recommends consuming raw cooked beef liver since it is the most nutrient-dense food on this planet and extremely high in vitamin B12.

In addition to these, patients are allowed to take fresh fruits and vegetables any time during a day as a snack. Castor oil is usually taken to enhance liver's ability to filter blood.

Enemas

The therapy also consists of regular enemas that help the body to flush out the waste toxins that have accumulated due to pollution in the air , diet , water , alcohol or/and smoking. 


These enemas help the human liver and kidneys to stay healthy and to get rid of toxins. Patients undergoing this therapy might take up to 5 coffee enemas daily.

Supplements

All medications used in connection with the Gerson therapy should be biological, materials of organic origin & natural. The supplements used on the Gerson Therapy include,

• Thyroid
• Vitamin B-12
• Potassium
• Pancreatic Enzymes etc

Oxygenation

Oxygenation is usually made more than doubled in daily intake, as oxygen deficiency in the blood contributes to flourish many deadly diseases so its supply makes sure in this therapy. There are many different ways to do so which can be searched easily. 

There is no specific type mentioned in this therapy.

Limitations of Gerson Therapy

As Gerson Therapy is proven to be effective and cancer curing with many examples throughout many decades of its evolution, but there is no guarantee that it works for all patients due to many different contributing factors. Some of these factors are,

• Age of the patient
• Family history of the patient
• Genes profile of the patient
• Accommodation pattern and exposure level of patient
• Lifestyle of patient
• Stage of cancer of patient
• Previous of current treatment of patient (Chemotherapy, radiation or surgery)
• Strength of Immune system of patient
• Patient self-sustaining condition
• Kidney & liver condition of patient
• Foreign bodies such as pacemakers, steel plates or screws in patient bodies.
• And many others

Now Dr. Max daughter, Charlotte Gerson is running an institute to spread awareness and training of Gerson Therapy for the people of all across the globe.

Cancer

What is cancer?

We all know that cells are the basic and fundamental unit of life and are the basic building blocks of the body. The human body contains approximately between 15 trillion to 75 trillion different types of cells. These cells grow and divide to produce more cells to form human organs and to fulfill body needs.

Sometimes these cells keep dividing even if new cells are not needed. These extra cells form a mass of tissue which is called a growth or tumor. Tumors are divided into 2 main types

• Benign Tumor
• Malignant Tumor

Benign Tumor

Benign Tumor is not cancerous because cells in benign tumors do not spread to other parts of the body. They can usually be removed and most of the time, the do not come back. So benign tumor is rarely considered to be a threat to life.

Malignant Tumor

Malignant Tumor is cancerous and is made up of those cells that grow out of control & order. Cells in these tumors invade & damage nearby healthy tissues (organs) and spread to other parts of the body. This tumor can spread as a metastatic disease which means that these cancer cells can enter the bloodstream or lymphatic system from where they can spread to the other parts of the body.

So Cancer can be defined as a group of diseases that is caused by uncontrolled growth & reproduction of cells in any specific part of the body which can spread to other parts afterward.

Known Causes of cancer

There are many causes of cancer. Basically, everything that can affect the human body and its cells can cause cancer. Few of them are given below,

Inherited Genes:

Some types of cancer run in certain families. But cancer is not only linked with genes that we inherited from our parents. There are many other factors that cause cancer.

Tabaco:

Tobacco smoke is made up of more than 7,000 chemicals, including over 70 known to cause cancer. This is the reason why doctors advise against smoking.

Diet:

Different modern foods contain different harmful chemicals and other inorganic substances in them which not only causes cancer but also other diseases.

Sun and UV exposure:

Skin cancer is a type of cancer which is caused by sunlight and ultraviolet exposure.

Radiation exposure:

Radiation can cause changes in the chemical balance of cells. Some of those changes can result in cancer.

Air pollution:

The air we breathe is filled with cancer-causing substances which are causing lungs & other types of cancer.

Types of cancer

There are over 200 different types of cancer, each with its own methods of diagnosis and treatments. As I mentioned earlier that it is not a single disease, it can start in the lungs, the breast, the colon, or even in the blood. In some ways, all or most of cancers can be the same, but they are different in the ways they grow and spread.  

There are many different types of cancer affecting different parts of the body few of them are,

• Bile duct cancer
• Bladder cancer
• Bone cancer
• Brain tumor
• Breast cancer
• Eye cancer

• Urinary changes
• Blood in urine
• Rectal changes
• Persistent back pain

Treatments of cancer

Treatment of cancer depends largely on the type of cancer and the extent it has spread to other parts of the body. Since its first case hundreds of different treatments are been developed. If we categorized these treatments based on their origin and pattern of treatments, then they are classified into two main categories,

•           Modern way of treatment
•           Natural treatments and therapies

Modern Treatments

Modern or conventional types of cancer treatments include,

Surgery:

 In which cancer tumor is removed through surgery.

Radiation Therapy:

Chemotherapy:

 Chemotherapy (also called chemo) is a type of cancer treatment that uses drugs to destroy cancer cells.

Immunotherapy:

 This therapy boost bodies immunity system to fight against cancer.

Targeted Therapy:

 Targeted therapy is a cancer treatment that uses drugs or other substances to more precisely identify and attack cancer cells.

Stem Cell Transplant:

 This therapy uses high doses of chemotherapy, sometimes with whole body radiotherapy.

Natural Treatments and Therapies

Before the proper introduction of medical sciences, the primary source of treatment was natural and of organic origin. There are literally thousands of known treatments of cancer in different geographical regional medicines including Chinese medicines, European traditional treatments, Indian & native’s medicine etc. But most of them are not accepted in modern word due to their obsolete way of treatments or due to their controversial success rates. Few of the known natural treatments that are non-controversial and have high success rates are,
