October 5, 2001, Newsletter Issue #58: The Gerson Diet & Cancer
Tip of the Week
One study of a nutritional approach to cancer - the Gerson Diet - appears to be effective in extending the survival rate for people with malignant melanoma and a variety of other cancers. This diet, attributed to Dr. Max Gerson, who Albert Schweitzer dubbed "one of the genuiuses in medical history, actually was first prescribed for cancer treatment back in the 1940s. A recent report from the University of California, San Diego, Cancer Prevention & Control Program, studied 82 Gerson patients with malignant melanoma, comparing their survival rates with those reported by conventional oncologists stats.
The results? For early-stage melanoma, 100 percent of Gerson patients survived 5 years, compared to 79 percent survival for those who used conventional oncology. For moderately metastasized melanoma - 75 percent Gerson patients lived 5 years, compared to 40 percent of the conventionally treated patients. And, for the widely metastasized melanoma, the stats were 39 percent survival for Gerson followers, and only 6 percent for conventional oncology patients.
