Dr Max Gerson, censored by 'The Science' for curing cancer.
An untold story where the real quacks and criminals slander someone who successfully cured thousands from terminal cancer. $cientism and protecting the AMA and the medical establishment's drug trade.
“I agree with you that Dr Gerson’s cancer therapy had great merits and know with which difficulties Dr Gerson had to struggle. I would be grateful to you if you try to tell the people of America about Dr. Gerson’s merits and about the results he obtained with his therapy….I wish you the best with this difficult task.” Dr. Albert Schweitzer
“In the hand of the physician, nutrition can be the highest and best remedy.” Dr Max Gerson
Introduction
Dr Max Gerson cured Albert Schweitzer of his type II diabetes, his daughter’s chronic skin condition, and saved his wife’s life from tuberculosis which ‘modern medicine’ could not resolve. Gerson and Schweitzer became life-long friends. Such success for Max Gerson was not unusual. Originally his therapy targeted tuberculosis and diabetes but he noticed it also arrested and often cured cancer.
In the 1940s and beyond he began to focus on restoring health to those afflicted by various cancers. According to his patients and notebooks Gerson’s success rate at stopping or remediating the spread of cancer in those deemed ‘terminal’ or beyond the help of ‘modern medicine’ was over 60%. These successes were confirmed in US Senate hearings in the 1946.
Few know of Gerson or his methods. There is a reason for that. It is called the American Medical Association, a creature of the Rockefeller Foundation which is the gatekeeper and curator of ‘medical science’. If you don’t promote drugs, pills, opioids, vaccines or chemical therapies, you will be censored, de-registered, de-licensed and increasingly in the ‘modern world’ de-banked. You might even end up murdered or ‘suicided’. The censorship of any treatment that does include expensive chemical brews is rife and endemic in the ‘modern world’.
Gerson’s approach is classified by the colossally ignorant Wikipedia as dangerous and ineffective. Unlike say the Corona quackcinations, or chemotherapy. This is typical of Scientism.
Who was Dr. Max Gerson?
Dr. Max Gerson was born in Wongrowitz, Germany, in 1881, attending the universities of Breslau, Wuerzburg, Berlin, and Freiburg, graduating in 1909 and becoming a licensed physician in Germany. Gerson and his family fled the Nazi regime ending up in the US in 1936 and Gerson received a license to practice medicine in the state of New York in 1938. He became a U.S. citizen in 1942. In 1946, Dr. Gerson appeared before the Pepper-Neely Congressional Subcommittee, during hearings on a bill to fund cancer treatment research, providing evidence that naturopathy could cure cancer. He astonished the entire hearing with his success stories.
Case history of 10 cancer patients clinical observations theoretical considerations and summary
In 1958, after 30 years of clinical experimentation, Dr. Gerson published A Cancer Therapy: Results of 50 Cases to detail his theories, treatment, and results. His research included soil issues, the electricity of cells, how cancer cells ferment glucose, oxidizing enzymes, sodium/potassium balance, connective tissue, and other technical issues related to cancer. His treatment and approach were holistic. Cancer was (and is) a disease of the entire body.
Gerson’s treatment
Gerson proposed that diet could arrest and even eliminate cancer. He developed a rather elaborate diet and lifestyle that must be difficult and painful to follow. The Gerson diet is a strict low salt, organic fruit and vegetable diet. In general, the practitioner of the Gerson method will need to:
drink 20 pounds (about 9 kilos) of crushed fruit and vegetables (one glass of juice hourly, 13 times each day)
have up to 5 coffee enemas and perhaps also castor oil enemas
take potassium and other supplements, including vitamin B12, pancreatic enzymes and thyroid supplements
There are other dietary requirements and variations, but the above is a core sample of the program. You can follow the programme in its complex entirety by yourself at home, or at a licensed clinic in Mexico or Hungary.
Gerson’s insights
Why this rather bizarre diet? The reason is that Gerson believed the digestive tract was the most important part of our bodies.
In his 40 years of treating people with tuberculosis and various cancers, Gerson proved that if digestion does not work properly, the body and its other organs will never be properly nourished. This means that our bodily waste products, our toxins and poisons, are not eliminated. Instead, they accumulate in our bodies. This accumulation will cause cancer and other diseases.
Liver and life
In particular, Gerson focused on the liver. If the liver is overwhelmed, good health is nigh impossible. Gerson’s treatment saturates the body with nutrients, potassium and oxidising enzymes. The diet is bereft of salt or fats, other than flaxseed. Freshly crushed organic fruit and vegetable juices need to be consumed hourly. Coffee enemas, a rather novel design in the 1940s, should be taken several times daily.
As the cancer tumours die off, they are absorbed by healthy cells. The goal is to completely detoxify the patient and eradicate the built-up poisons in our bodies. It is entirely sensible.
Based on Gerson’s work the links with a damaged liver and cancer are obvious and direct, unless you work in ‘modern medicine’. In the ‘modern world’ the answer to a cancer is to machine gun the body with chemicals hoping to erase the ‘cancerous cells’. The entire body and all its organs are of course affected, weakening your body and supplying more provender for cell destruction.
In the ridiculous world of chemicals-as-saviours we are assaulted with fraudulent claims of chemotherapy’s ‘success’ when used in isolation or with ‘radiation treatment’. The medical ‘establishment’ has never had a problem with lying. Chemotherapy success might be in the 2-5% range. Gerson’s success rate was over 60%.
Researchers at the Department of Radiation Oncology at the Northern Sydney Cancer Centre studied the 5-year survival rates of chemotherapy on 22 types of cancers in the US and Australia.
They studied 154,971 Americans and Australians with cancer, age 20 and older, that were treated with conventional treatments, including chemotherapy. Only 3,306 had survival that could be credited to chemotherapy.
Study Results: “The overall contribution of curative and adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy to 5-year survival in adults was estimated to be 2.3% in Australia and 2.1 % in the USA” (Journal of Clinical Oncology in December 2004)
Unsafe and ineffective. But cancer is a huge industry, rivalled only by ‘AIDS’ in largesse, itself a USD $ 1 Trillion market since the 1980s. A flood of money, grants, research, and profits. Why let unsafe and ineffective get in the way?
Lazy humans
Gerson also lamented the sedentary lifestyle. This was 70-80 years ago. How much worse is it today? Gerson once remarked that, “…all people and animals need exercise every day, enough muscle work that the accumulated natural reserves will be processed and discharged.”
This is common sense. An endless array of research reveals the implications of leading a sedentary lifestyle. It is so obvious that a new term known as ‘sitting disease’ is now employed to refer to increased risk of disease, including cancer, just from excessive and prolonged sitting. Humans need vigorous exercise, good diets, proper sleep and plenty of clean water.
Our immobile and obese population is in essence a mass of potential cancer sufferers. In the UK there is now a record number of liver cancers, caused primarily by alcohol abuse, obesity and lack of exercise. Alcohol consumption, which has increased on average by 10% in the past 20 years, is known to generate cancer (World in Statistics).
S. J. Haught
S. J Haught was an American investigative news reporter. in 1958, he received a letter from a woman who had used Gerson’s treatment, was cured of cancer, but was destitute and denied state welfare support because Gerson’s remedy was not ‘licensed’. Her own doctors could not help her with ‘modern medicine’ and failed to address her cancer. But Gerson did work with her, and cured her.
The Gerson diet does involve an investment, but it is a fraction of the cost of ‘modern therapies’. The extra costs for the life-saving Gerson diet had however caused hardship for this woman and her family. However, no one in the ‘caring’, ‘loving’ governmental agency matrix much cared, nor attempted to help her.
Upon receiving the letter Haught assumed that Gerson was a fraud, a financial huckster, and a quack. He started to investigate his methods and practice hoping to produce a sensational story on yet another medical charlatan. It was not long before he had his Damascene moment, uncovered the truth and became a convert if not apostle. He was utterly amazed by the success of the Gerson method.
Based on his relentless process of discovery which lasted some 10 years, Haught wrote a book, ‘Censored for curing Cancer; The American Experience of Max Gerson’. It is well worth a read since it highlights the censorious depravity of US ‘medical practice’. ‘Health care’ has nothing to do with health. It’s only concern is profits and power.
Haught: “The history of medicine is a story of almost incredible stupidity, and a story of almost incredible genius and perseverance. Nearly every single advance, nearly every single discovery, has met with such furious opposition by the medical fraternity that one wonders how medicine has advanced at all…Medical pioneers have been imprisoned, executed, hounded and driven insane for their genius.” (p. 121).
So, it goes with Scientism and the Church of ‘The Science’. Only certain beliefs and gospels are considered truth. Anything else is anathema. Examples include Dr Mercola, and Dr Amen who invented spectroscopy (3D images of the brain). The AMA has long waged war against both and countless hundreds of other real doctors.
She should be dead in 2 months
Beata Bishop, who once worked as a BBC journalist, was diagnosed with stage IV melanoma in 1980, at the age of 56. The cancer was aggressive, and Bishop was told she had two months to live. She underwent a useless and damaging surgery that failed to stop the advance of the cancer.
Desperate, she somehow found out about the Gerson Therapy, went to a licensed clinic in Mexico (most ‘modern states’ won’t license the Gerson therapy of course), survived the cancer and thrived. Beata Bishop wrote a book on her experience, ‘A Time to Heal’.
She celebrated her 100th birthday on June 8th, 2024. Yet you will be told that ‘no one was ever healed by the Gerson method’. That is true only if you ignore the many thousands like Bishop who were cured and survived.
Bottom Line
Dr Gerson was on the right path to curing and remediating cancer. Holistic medicine, diet, a focus on the liver and an active healthy lifestyle are better remedies than drugs and radiation. The fact that he is unknown and not feted is no surprise in a world held hostage by $cientism and its anti-health gatekeepers. Personally, if I ever contract or more accurately generate my own cancer, the strategy will be to use the Gerson method and other naturopathy remedies. The ‘modern world’s’ obsession with drugs, quackcines, chemicals, cocktails, quack potions and charlatans is unscientific, not holistic and destructive. In essence we are what we eat and drink. Gerson was right but his methods don’t lead to excessive profiteering and power, and that is why he is dismissed and slandered.
