    I have witnessed Gerson Therapy first hand. My cousin who is an alternative medicine has treated a lot of cancer patients. My cousin even braggs that he can cure an AIDS patient.

    ..... and ACS is discrediting it ...

    http://www.cancer.org/Treatment/Tre...ativeMedicine/DietandNutrition/gerson-therapy

    of course, what will happensto the billion-dollar pharma companies and who's going to pay the sports cars of the MD practioners if americans are healthy??

    .. and the worst, this year alone, our company has solicited money to fund cancer research when the answer is clear.... waht a joke!


    watch: FOOD MATTERS.

    you've been warned.

    appropriate time for this thread for me. last night we had dinner with my g/f's coworker who's husband was a talker. somehow the subject of cancer came up. apparently, this guy had colon cancer and was told to either do chemo or don't expect to live for more than a few months. he decided on alternative medicine, specifically Essiac. according to him, it worked and he is cancer free.

    i once new a person who lived to be 100 years old and smoked and drank his entire life.

    Therefore, smoking and drinking can make you live to 100.

    I knew a mother and daughter (family friends) who got breast cancer around the same time, both told they needed mastectomies combined with radiation or chemo, and both chose alternative treatments. The mother, who was diagnosed first, and was farther along, did extremely well, was cancer-free within a year, and is still alive 8 or so years later. The daughter never got much better, eventually went back to the mainstream doctors, was told it was too late, and eventually died. Had she had the mastectomy and radiation treatments, she would have had over a 90% chance of survival.

    The lesson I took from this is that alternative medical treatments certainly can work, but they are less scientific and less predictable than mainstream medical treatments. Were I in the same situation, I would choose the mainstream treatments unless the odds of them working were slim. If the mainstream doctors didn't think I had much of a chance, then I would choose the alternative medicine.

    I was speaking of alternative medicine in general. On the Gerson therapy, from the article:

    As a person who grew up around MD Anderson (mother worked there for 23 years) and have lost my grandfather and uncle to cancer, I would like to ask you to go stand out in the middle 0f I10 West at around 5:30pm so I can hit you with my car. Thanks!

    Why do so many alternative therapies center on enemas? It's not like people haven't been trying to cure diseases by pouring stuff into people's rears for centuries. In the 18th century, many people believed you could save a drowned person by sticking an air bellows up his rear and pumping him up.

    This is the great news I've been hoping for.

    More anecdotal evidence: as far back as we know, no one in my family has died of cancer (we know of at least 4 generations, and how most of them died). Most of us smoke, drink, get arrested, overthrow governments, slap punk asses, and then live into our eighties.

    Makes sense... eat good, high-quality food; reduce disease and live longer. It's logical.

    My great grandmother was 90-something when she died and didn't eat vegetables.


    I'm not saying this alternative voodoo magic should replace science, but some of you are far too trusting of the pharmaceutical companies and the 'system' in general.
