Gerson Diet
Dr. Max Gerson (1881-1959) came out with a therapy to treat cancer and many
other autoimmune diseases through a certain diet program. This highly expensive
and controversial diet program came to be known as the "Gerson Diet".
According to Dr. Gerson accumulation of toxic materials in the body cause serious
malfunctions in cell metabolism. He recommends a primarily vegetarian diet rich
in potassium, carbohydrates, fluids (fruit and vegetable juice), and restricts
the use of sodium, fats, meats and dairy products. The program also involves
regular coffee enemas to remove harmful toxins from the body.
